When your house is under construction, you eat takeout for a while. When your business is under construction, you're paying rent on a space you can't use, and your customers are finding somewhere else to go.
I'm Chris. For more than 11 years, my team has remodeled homes and commercial spaces around Chicago, and if you need a commercial general contractor Chicago business owners can actually get on the phone, that's us. There are 27 of us on one team, so your project isn't waiting on three other companies' calendars.
Commercial Renovation Services in Chicago
Here are the commercial jobs we get called about.
Office Renovation and Office Remodel
An office renovation can be new paint and carpet or a full change of layout. Whether you're adding rooms, opening things up or finally getting rid of that 1990s reception desk, an office remodel should disturb your staff as little as possible. We'll talk through the schedule before we start.
Office Build Out
Moving into a new space? An office build out takes it from an empty shell or an old tenant's layout to something that fits how your people work.
Retail Build Out and Storefront Renovation
Your storefront is the first thing a customer sees. A retail build out or storefront renovation is about making people want to walk in, and getting you open when you said you'd open.
Restaurant Remodeling
Restaurant remodeling comes with a clock on it, because every dark day is lost money. Tell us your must-open date, and we'll tell you honestly whether it's realistic.
Tenant Improvement Contractor Work
Need a tenant improvement contractor for a lease you just signed? We can walk the space with you, and it helps to do that before you sign, if you still can.
Concrete, Masonry and Demolition
A lot of commercial jobs start with tear-out, and older Chicago buildings often need brick or concrete work too. We've got people for that, so it stays on one schedule.
What Commercial Remodeling Costs in Chicago
Commercial jobs vary more than almost anything else we do. Your price depends on:
- The size and condition of the space. A clean shell is different from a space with three past tenants' leftovers in it.
- What your business needs. Restaurants and medical spaces need more than a basic office.
- Your schedule. Working around open hours takes planning.
- The building. Landlords and building managers can have rules of their own.
We'll walk the space and give you a free estimate. No pressure, and no "this price is only good today."
When a Commercial Renovation Is the Wrong Fix
If your lease has less than a couple of years left, or your landlord might be on the hook for part of this, stop and check before you spend money on a commercial renovation. A good contractor should ask you that. Read the lease, ask the landlord, and then call us. And if a refresh will get you what you need, we'll tell you that too.
Why Hire Our Commercial Contractors
Plenty of commercial contractors in Chicago work on huge projects with huge teams. If you're running a business with one location and a real budget, you want someone who'll return your call.
Here's what you get from us:
- Licensed and insured, with the paperwork ready when your landlord asks
- One team and one point of contact
- A schedule before we start, and a heads-up if it changes
- 11+ years of doing this around Chicago
Chicago Commercial Remodeling Questions
Can you work around our business hours?
Let's talk about it. Tell us your hours and what can't be disrupted, and we'll tell you what's possible for your job.
Can you give my landlord proof of insurance?
Yes. We're licensed and insured. Ask for the paperwork and we'll be glad to send it.
Do you do small commercial jobs?
Yes, call and tell us what you need. If it's not a fit, we'll say so right away, so you can keep moving.
Do you need to see the space before quoting?
Yes. We'd rather walk it once than guess and have to change the number on you later.
