TurnKey Renovators recently completed a large-scale concrete restoration project for a hospitality property located just two blocks from the French Quarter, transforming a 13,000-square-foot valet garage that had not received a major update in more than 15 years.
The project centered around a significant crack in the property's valet drive-through, requiring the existing concrete to be removed and the surface completely updated. TurnKey Renovators installed a concrete overlay across the 13,000-square-foot space, creating a cleaner, more durable surface while improving the overall experience for guests entering and exiting the valet area.
TurnKey Renovators notes on its website that heavy rain, summer heat, and clay-rich soil put constant stress on concrete surfaces in New Orleans, and that its team handles every stage of a project, from site preparation and forming to pouring, finishing, and curing.
According to the company, every concrete project follows a structured process, beginning with an on-site consultation and a written estimate before any work starts and ending with a final walkthrough that explains the curing timeline and provides care instructions for the finished project.
The three-and-a-half-week project required careful coordination to keep the property operating smoothly throughout construction. The TurnKey Renovators team worked around existing property operations, including keeping access to the property's laundry facilities available and coordinating with pest control to ensure the various moving parts of the project remained on schedule.
The team also temporarily removed a fence to provide the necessary access for the work before restoring the area as the project progressed. With the property located in a busy area near the French Quarter, maintaining a smooth flow for guests and daily operations was a key consideration throughout the renovation.
More broadly, TurnKey Renovators says it plans commercial renovation phases to limit disruption, whether that means working after hours, completing a project in stages, or coordinating around a client's busiest periods.
Once the concrete work was completed, TurnKey Renovators applied the finishing touches, sealing the surface and putting the final stamp on the newly renovated garage. The finished space provides a refreshed, more functional valet area designed to make it easier for guests to enter and exit the property.
Completed from start to finish in approximately three and a half weeks, the project showcases TurnKey Renovators' ability to manage large-scale commercial work while navigating the logistical challenges that come with working at an active hospitality property.
“Working at an active hotel means the job is about more than the concrete,” said Corey Gallagher, CEO of TurnKey Renovators. “The guests, staff, and daily operations all have to keep moving. Our team planned every phase around the property's schedule, kept key areas like the laundry facilities open, and delivered a durable, great-looking valet garage in about three and a half weeks.”
“Projects like this show what TurnKey can do on the commercial side, and we're excited to take on more of this work across New Orleans. This project is a good example of where TurnKey is headed. We brought the same attention to detail we're known for in residential work to a 13,000-square-foot commercial project, and finished it on a tight schedule in one of the busiest parts of the city.”
The completed garage is another example of TurnKey Renovators' growing commercial capabilities, combining large-scale concrete work, detailed project coordination, and practical improvements to an active New Orleans property.
TurnKey Renovators holds both a Residential License (#890459) and a Commercial License (#3667) in the state of Louisiana and provides exterior construction services for residential and commercial properties across the New Orleans area.
