Service lines

Renovation coordination, one tread at a time

MRQZ Renovations LLC is a whole-home renovation coordination practice working from the remodel yard at 4927 W Valley View Dr, Salt Lake City - 84120-4807, United States (US). We do not hand a house to a chain of separate contractors and hope the seams line up. One scope, one calendar, one punch list, six service lines that cover the work from the first barrier to the final stamp.

Whole-Home Renovation

A whole-home renovation is less a single project than a sequence of small projects that must not collide. We start with a room-by-room survey that records existing conditions, then build a phased plan so a family can keep using parts of the house while other parts are opened. The electrical panel, the plumbing stack and the heating distribution are assessed before finishes are chosen, because those systems set the order of everything that follows.

Our coordination role covers trade sequencing, material lead times, inspection scheduling and the daily protection of occupied rooms. Homeowners receive a single schedule that shows which rooms are active in which week, and a single point of contact who can answer questions without a game of telephone between subcontractors. When a late delivery or an unexpected framing issue appears, the plan is revised in writing rather than negotiated at the doorway.

Kitchen Remodels

Kitchens carry the most technical density per square foot of any room in the house. A cabinet run depends on wall flatness, an island depends on clearances that actually work when the dishwasher door is open, and an appliance wall depends on venting and power that were often improvised decades ago. We measure the room with a laser and a level, verify the service locations, and only then order cabinetry.

Demolition week is planned around a temporary cooking setup: a sink, a work counter and a place to plug in a coffee maker. That small courtesy keeps a family out of restaurants for a month and keeps the project calendar realistic. Countertop templates are taken after cabinet installation rather than before, and the final plumbing trim is scheduled after the backsplash has cured so nothing is removed twice.

Bathroom Remodels

In a bathroom, the waterproofing is the structure. We treat the shower pan, the wall board and the seams as primary construction, with flood testing and photographic records completed before any tile is set. Curbless showers, niche placement and tub-to-shower conversions each bring their own framing and slope requirements, and we plan those details in the survey rather than discovering them on the day the tile arrives.

Ventilation is checked and corrected where it is inadequate, because a beautiful bathroom that stays damp will not stay beautiful. Fixture rough-in heights are confirmed with the people who will use the room, not assumed from a standard drawing. The closeout includes a written record of waterproofing, valve access and finish care so future maintenance does not require demolition.

Additions and Garage Conversions

Additions are a study in transitions. The place where new construction meets the existing house has to handle roof drainage, insulation continuity, siding and the small settlement differences that appear over the first year. We plan that junction explicitly, with matched rooflines and flashing details drawn before the framing crew arrives. Interior openings are sized and shored with engineering guidance where the existing structure requires it.

Garage conversions carry a different set of obligations: the slab, the wall insulation, the ceiling height, heating and egress. A conversion that ignores egress will not pass inspection, and one that ignores the slab will feel cold and uneven underfoot. We scope those items first, then plan the finishes around them. The result is a room that reads like part of the house rather than a garage with carpet laid over concrete.

Dust Control and Protection

Dust travels farther than most people expect. It moves through return-air paths, under doors and along floor joists, and it settles on surfaces in rooms that were never part of the work. Our answer is a barrier plan built before demolition. Zipper doors are installed at the work-zone boundary, seams are taped, and returns are covered. Where sanding or heavy demolition is scheduled, negative air equipment is placed and vented appropriately.

Floor protection is matched to the surface below it: paper for finished wood, board for tile in the traffic path, and a runner at the front door for the whole duration. Doorways get a taped threshold so debris is not tracked into the rest of the house. At the end of each workday the barrier is checked, the path is swept and the protection is repaired rather than left to degrade over a month.

Punch List Closeouts

The punch list is where a renovation either earns trust or loses it. We build the list during the final weeks, dated and initialed, with photographs attached to each item. The client walks the house with us and adds anything that matters to them, even cosmetic items that a crew might consider minor. Then the list is worked down in front of the client rather than behind a closed door.

Closeout also includes the paperwork that makes the first year easier: warranty terms, product care sheets, valve and panel locations, and a record of the waterproofing and inspections. A job is finished when the list is empty, the photographs are filed and the client knows who to call. We keep the same contact line open after the last stamp is applied.

How a project moves through the yard

Step one

Walk and measure

We visit the house, measure every room in scope and photograph existing conditions. The output is a written scope with room dimensions and a list of open questions.

Step two

Plan and protect

The schedule, the barrier plan and the material list are built together. Protection goes in before demolition so the rest of the house is ready for the work.

Step three

Build in sequence

Trades are booked in an order that respects cure times and inspections. The active room is published weekly so the family can plan around it.

Step four

Stamp and close

The punch list is walked, stamped and emptied. Records, care sheets and warranty terms are handed over with the keys to the finished rooms.

MRQZ Renovations LLC opens its spring remodel calendar and reserves walkthrough time for homeowners who want the dust plan agreed before demolition begins.
