Planning Work Around Your Home or Building
In a condo or office, construction shares entrances, utilities, and delivery routes with other occupants. We coordinate the work with management so they can plan around those interruptions.
For a home renovation, we discuss how you want to use the rooms and what your household needs during construction. We help compare layout and finish options before developing the estimate.

Bergen County Construction Questions
When should I contact Bau?
You can contact us while considering a renovation or repair or after plans are developed. We can discuss the space and the construction costs.
How do you develop the construction budget?
We begin with what you want to change and your spending expectations, then review the property and any plans you have. We estimate the construction and explain allowances for unselected products and costs outside the price. For commercial work, we also account for tenant needs and building requirements.
Can you renovate an office or commercial interior?
Yes. We manage tenant improvements with your design team and building management, coordinating trades, deliveries, inspections, and closeout.
Can you work with a condo alteration agreement?
Yes. We review the association’s requirements and coordinate approved hours, insurance records, protection, deliveries, elevator use, and submissions.
Can you work in an occupied property?
Yes. We plan access, protection, shutdowns, and notices with the owner and management. The work determines which areas can remain in use. For homes, we discuss alternative accommodations if needed.
Does Bau handle permit applications in Bergen County?
Yes. We coordinate drawings with licensed professionals, submit applications, and work with the municipal construction office or other responsible agency to obtain the approvals needed to begin construction.
