Q. What materials can I use when remodeling my elevator?
A. The most common materials found in elevator cabs are plastic laminates, wood veneers, textured stainless steel products and stone.

Q. When should I remodel my elevator cab?
A. Cabs begin to show wear and tear in five to seven years, even with a durable material. The most typical time to remodel your elevator cab is during a full equipment modernization, although it is by no means the only time. It is practical during a modernization because an elevator is down for a considerable period of time and a cab remodeling can most effectively be integrated in terms of logistics.
Q. What is this going to cost me?
A. No two renovations are the same and it is complicated to estimate a price without discussing the scope of a project. Our commitment is to remain competitive on price, transparent as to scope and supportive throughout the process. Bear in mind, even if you're in the planning stages and haven't established a budget or timeline to do the work, we would be happy to give you indicative pricing and work with you in terms of value engineering.
