That’s a hot topic! As you can imagine, a lot can influence pricing. The short answer is, design and construction of an average interior fit out for a spec lab, biosafety level 1 or 2, will average between $350CAD per s.f. to $550CAD per s.f., depending on the amount of specialized equipment needed, the quality of the finishes and the size of the space. This being said, the subject is so complex we wrote a long blog post about it that you can read here.
It is always though to say, but using a turnkey, design-build approach, we can start ordering long lead items while we are completing the design and even start demolition, if required. The average 5,000 to 50,000 s.f. project usually needs about 10 to 14 months to complete, from the first step: feasibility study, to the last step before moving in: final clean up and commissioning.We also wrote a very interesting blog post detailing every step of a typical lab space project that you can read here.
No. BUT, according to our more than 14 years of experience, NOT going through a turnkey, design-build (IE: Only 1 responsible for everything) type of agreement, it puts a lot more pressure on the client that will then need to play the role of overseeing the various stakeholders: the City, the architecture firm, the engineering firm, the landlord, the neighbors and/or other tenants in the building, and the general contractor.
