PHILOSOPHY
WEAVERCOOKE sees the value and necessity of rehabilitating existing
multi-family communities, both affordable and market rate. Through life
cycle evaluations, it is common for existing apartment communities to
modernize and repair the normal wear and tear in addition to updating
for building code compliance and safety. These accommodations greatly
improve the quality of life for residents and extend the useful life of the
community
WEAVERCOOKE understands that renovating communities often
involves relocating residents, which is costly and disruptive. Our
experience will help to minimize the disruption and manage
expectations. Based on the condition of the community and the scope of
renovation we can help determine if your project would be a good
candidate for an in-place renovation, where resident relocation might
not be required or might be limited to specific tasks. Once we determine
the best approach, WEAVERCOOKE will employ Lean Construction
principles in concert with our Rapid Rehab process to meet strict
deadlines and execute work quickly and efficiently.
OUR EXPERIENCE
WEAVERCOOKE has the experience to help any
community meet their renovation goals. We have a
track record of successfully renovating thousands of
multi-family residences in North Carolina and
throughout the Southeast. The communities we have
renovated range in size from under 20 units to over
600. WEAVERCOOKE not only provides renovations to
market rate apartments, we also have experience
renovating affordable housing. We understand the
requirements and nuances involved with renovations
to affordable housing communities. We also have
strong relationships with trade contractors throughout
the Southeast who specialize in apartment renovations.

Mountain Vew Apartments
Apartment Renovations in Canton, NC
Our scope of work at Mountain View included renovations and various updates to the
electrical, HVAC, and plumbing systems which included replacing show units. The
interior finishes of the units were given new life with fresh paint, doors, and new flooring.
The ADA accessible units were brought up to current code, which included moving walls
and increasing the size of bathrooms. Renovations to the exterior and infrastructure
included: replacing the roofing and the decks, select asphalt paving and concrete
replacement, and the addition of a new playground. The improvements made in almost
all non-ADA units were accomplished while occupied. WEAVERCOOKE implemented
our Rapid Rehab system to complete each unit within two weeks. Residents vacated their
units during work hours, but were able to return in the evenings.
Aldersgate Phase I & II
Apartment Renovations in Greensboro, NC
Aldersgate was constructed by WEAVERCOOKE almost forty years ago and
has since provided affordable housing to seniors in the Greensboro area. We
returned in 2017 to provide renovations to the apartment interiors and
amenity areas. Extensive renovations were done in four apartments to make
them fully ADA compliant. Accessibility upgrades, as well as new finishes,
were provided in the community building, including office space, a new
community room with fireplace, bathrooms, and a kitchen. All units, except
for the handicapped units, were occupied throughout construction.
WEAVERCOOKE construction is a leading general contractor across North Carolina, providing quality multi-family construction, senior-
living construction, and affordable housing construction in Greensboro, Durham, Charlotte and Asheville and throughout the Southeast.
Greensboro Housing Authority
Apartment Renovations in Greensboro, NC
This Greensboro Housing Authority renovation project involved extensive affordable
housing renovations to 645 units at nine different sites across the city of Greensboro.
The interior of each unit was completely redone, and the exteriors were given new
finishes and fixtures. All ADA/UFAS units were modified to be in compliance with
current codes and requirements. This project had an aggressive schedule, with the first
495 units required to be completed within nine months of breaking ground. Utilizing
management and scheduling techniques modeled after the Lean Construction
principles, our team met this ambitious goal. The entire GHA team had the drive and
adaptability to meet the project’s challenges, all while being considerate of the fact that
they were working every day in people’s homes.
