The Physiolab is a healthcare clinic located in Vancouver, Canada that specializes in physiotherapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, and acupuncture. As one of Vancouver’s top physical therapy clinics, their mission is to help you move better, feel healthier, and perform better, so that you can focus on what matters to you.
As a successful healthcare clinic, The Physiolab was ready to expand to their second location located at 2105 E Hastings St, Vancouver.
We were contacted by Physiolab to manage their construction as the general contractor, with a tight timeline of 10 weeks to complete the project.

The Challenge
Like many construction projects happening in Vancouver, delays in the timeline are common due to increased material costs and lack of availability/reliability of trades. The largest obstacle when managing this project was sticking to the tight timeline of 10 weeks to complete the project, not to mention the 10 weeks overlapping the Christmas holidays, where a lot of engineers, city workers and trades would be on holidays.
The Solution
This project required extensive planning and frequent site visits to ensure we were able to complete the project with the given timeline. With our experience and relationship with the trades, we were able to delegate the right trades that could provide quality work and still fall within the given timelines.
Additionally, communications and transparency amongst our client, engineer, inspectors and trades helped in the process as there are many moving parts such as sign offs and precise organization/scheduling of the trades to ensure the construction ran smoothly from beginning to end.
Our team was extremely happy with the overall look and being able to deliver this project within the given timeline.
