A new Coffee Bar with new casework, minifridge, dishwasher, sink, and associated plumbing will be added adjacent the Office/Showroom.

The new Workshop will have new walls and storefront windows, all new finishes, and a protective plywood cap over new light gauge framing that supports an insulated ceiling.

New basic electrical is to be provided for the new and renovated spaces, consisting of a new 100A panel for standard light fixtures, HVAC, and convenience outlets.
