Rental Unit Turnover Services Built Around Property Management Schedules
Vacant units cost property managers money every day they sit empty between tenants. Melani General Contractor handles the full turnover scope on tight schedules, so units return to market quickly without compromising quality.
Standard Turnover Package
The standard package covers wall priming, fresh paint in builder-grade neutrals, floor refinishing or replacement, and fixture cleaning. Most one-bedroom units are completed within ten to fourteen business days, depending on access and existing conditions.
Custom Scope Turnover
When a unit requires more than cosmetic work, the team scopes plaster repair, cabinet refacing, appliance swaps, and bathroom updates. Property managers receive a written estimate before work begins, with a defined start and finish date in NYC.
Same-Day Walkthrough and Estimate
A project manager meets you at the unit, documents conditions, and submits a detailed estimate within 24 hours. This shortens the gap between move-out and contractor mobilization across the boroughs.
Emergency Turnover Response
When a tenant vacates with little notice or leaves significant damage, crews can mobilize within 72 hours. The team prioritizes restoring habitability so the leasing office can begin showing the unit again.
Multi-Unit Renovation Coordination for NYC Building Owners
Portfolios with several vacancies need a contractor who can run parallel projects without losing track of schedules, budgets, or documentation. Melani General Contractor coordinates multi-unit work across single buildings and scattered properties throughout the region.
Building-Wide Refresh Programs
When ownership decides to refresh several units in one push, the crew sequences work to minimize disruption to occupied apartments. Hallway scheduling, elevator reservations, and dust containment are coordinated with the superintendent.
Tenant Improvement Build-Outs
For rent-stabilized buildings or market-rate units that need to meet specific lease commitments, the team completes flooring installation, painting, and minor demolition within the agreed scope. Each unit is treated as its own project with separate sign-off.
Pre-Lease Punch List Completion
Before a new tenant signs, every unit goes through a punch list review covering outlet covers, door hardware, caulking, grout, and appliance function. Items are corrected and photographed before the leasing agent receives the keys.
Damage Documentation for Security Deposit Disputes
Every existing condition is photographed and itemized before work starts. Property managers receive a time-stamped report they can reference during security deposit negotiations or housing court proceedings in NYC.
