Vantage Builders Completes HQ Expansion in Andover

 Vantage Builders, Inc., a commercial contractor specializing in pre-construction, construction management and design-build services, completed a corporate headquarters expansion for NEOLab, a full-service orthodontic laboratory. The 10,000-square-foot project had a strict deadline, which the Vantage team met by utilizing a design-build model.

NEOLab (New England Orthodontic Laboratory) occupied space on the second floor of 3 Riverside Dr. in Andover, MA, and expanded into the first floor, nearly doubling its footprint. The expansion was needed to meet growing demand for its orthodontic appliances.

Working from design plans from Maugel DeStefano Architects, the Vantage team built two dedicated 3D metal printing laboratories, an open office layout that encourages collaboration and communication, new education space, lunchroom, and a renovated warehouse and storage area.

The timing of the project’s tight deadline was driven by an industry event NEOLab was planning to host in its new education space.
