Pre-Design Services for Business Suites & Commercial Interiors

If you are considering buying or leasing an existing space to house your business, you will probably need some interior alterations to suit your specific needs.  By examining the feasibility of such a project before you  commit to a location can help save you time and money.   There are several questions to ask when considering a space for your business:

· How much will it cost to remodel/ renovate/ add-on to?

· What will the City allow?

· Will I need additional restrooms?

· Is the space up to current Building and Accessibility codes?

· What is the process?

· How long will it take?

· Do I need to use an Architect?  Or can I just hire a builder?

· Are there other special considerations I need to be aware of?

By utilizing our Pre-Design Services, we can help answer these questions without commitment or upfront costs.
