At Met Exteriors, we specialize in transforming commercial properties across Alberta with expert craftsmanship and high-performance materials. One of our featured projects is the renovation of Kinjo Sushi & Grill in Edmonton, where our team delivered a modern and durable façade that enhances both the building’s appearance and long-term performance.
Understanding the Importance of Exterior Design
Our experienced crew handled the complete installation of EIFS (Insulation and Finish System), cultured stone, and metal cladding, achieving a sleek, contemporary design that aligns perfectly with the restaurant’s brand. Every detail was completed with precision to ensure durability, energy efficiency, and visual appeal.
This commercial renovation project highlights Met Exteriors’ commitment to excellence in masonry, EIFS systems, and cladding services. Whether it’s a restaurant, retail property, or office building, our team delivers innovative solutions that combine functionality, modern aesthetics, and lasting quality—helping Alberta businesses make a strong and lasting impression.
Project Scope and Planning
Before construction began, our team conducted a detailed assessment of the building to determine the most effective solutions for long-term performance. This planning stage helped identify areas that required improved insulation, enhanced weather resistance, and visual upgrades that would support the restaurant’s branding. Each decision was guided by durability, maintenance requirements, and overall appearance.
Careful coordination between materials and installation methods ensured the exterior systems worked together as a complete building envelope. This integrated approach helps reduce moisture-related issues, improves thermal performance, and extends the lifespan of the structure, while supporting consistent performance, code compliance, and long-term reliability for a busy commercial environment, even under frequent use and changing seasonal conditions, ensuring durability, safety, and dependable performance throughout daily operations.
Materials Selected for Performance and Visual Impact
EIFS was chosen for its insulation benefits and clean, modern finish, making it ideal for commercial applications where efficiency and appearance are equally important. Cultured stone was added to introduce texture and depth, creating contrast and reinforcing architectural character. These elements work together to give the façade a balanced and professional look.
Metal cladding details were incorporated to provide sharp lines and a contemporary feel. The combination of these materials delivers a polished result that enhances curb appeal while remaining practical for a high-traffic commercial property.
Built to Withstand Alberta Conditions
Commercial buildings in Alberta are exposed to extreme temperature changes, moisture, and seasonal weather challenges. This renovation was completed using materials and techniques specifically suited for these conditions. Proper sealing, flashing, and fastening methods were applied to protect the outer structure throughout the year.
By addressing climate-related demands during construction, this project helps minimize future maintenance while supporting consistent performance over time.
Benefits of a Professional Commercial Upgrade
A well-executed exterior renovation can significantly influence how a business is perceived. For restaurants, the building’s appearance plays a key role in attracting customers and reinforcing brand identity. A clean, modern façade helps create a welcoming first impression while communicating quality and professionalism.
Beyond visual appeal, professionally installed systems contribute to improved energy efficiency, durability, and long-term cost control. These benefits make commercial upgrades a valuable investment for business owners.
