Demolition
Interior of rooms- Carpet, trim and padding, plastic corner wraps, bar vanity (leaving underneath cabinets intact), approximately 8-10′ of header dividing room to be removed. Bathroom: egg crate and molding, double vanity counter top (plumbing lines cut prior by plumber), mirror over vanity. Corridors- Carpet, base trim, padding and tack strips. Plastic corner wraps, tile at elevator entrance. Lobby- all tile, carpet, carpet trim and padding.
Texturing
Spray popcorn in all room ceilings where header had been removed to match existing popcorn that was left in place. Spray knockdown on walls where: all patches made, new header over closet door, new drywall on header that ran down from ceiling to floor where old section removed. Miscellaneous patches from wall sconces moved, outlets moved, etc.

New trench in lobby for electrical lines.
Clean up
All rooms had to be swept clean after carpet and pad removal with dust control. All corridors had to be swept clean after carpet, carpet trim, padding and tack strip removal. All doors, windows, trim, etc. had to be free and clean after texturing.
Challenges
The main challenge was working with all the other trades on a very tight deadline. There was a two-week turnaround per floor. That was from full furniture liquidation to fully furnished and done units. We only had two elevators to use, neither of which was a over sized service elevator. The hotel was only shutting down one floor at a time so we had to work between hours of 9 and 5 and we only had one elevator.
