Garland · Commercial Renovation
Commercial Renovation Contractor in Garland, TX
Written scope and locked price before any deposit. Permits and inspections handled.
$25,000 project minimum · One-year workmanship warranty
Garland has the widest use mix we work in: retail along the Garland Road corridor, professional office near the I-30 and Beltline interchange, and light industrial off Shiloh Road, often within a few blocks of each other. Renovation here is mostly older stock, which means the building has opinions the listing did not mention.
Industrial-adjacent Garland space frequently needs code upgrades that never appear in the listing. Restroom accessibility, egress, and fire separation are the usual three, and any one of them can cost more than the finish scope that brought you to the building. We flag them on the walk rather than after demo, because after demo they are no longer optional and no longer negotiable.

Commercial Renovation in Garland: common questions
What does a commercial renovation cost in Garland?
A paint and flooring refresh runs $65 per square foot with a $25,000 project minimum. A light office renovation runs $95 per square foot, also with a $25,000 minimum. A standard renovation with reconfiguration runs $135 per square foot with a $45,000 minimum, and higher-end work carrying more millwork, glass, and detail runs $185 per square foot with a $75,000 minimum. All-in, including permits, inspections, and project management.
What usually surprises people in older Garland buildings?
Three things, and they are rarely in the listing: restroom accessibility, egress, and fire separation. Any one of them can cost more than the finish scope that brought you to the building in the first place. We check all three on the walk, because the moment demo starts they stop being optional and stop being negotiable.
Do you handle restroom upgrades separately?
Yes, and they are priced per room rather than per square foot because that is how they actually get scoped. A finish and accessory refresh runs $14,500 per restroom and a full remodel runs $28,500 per restroom. In an older Garland building the restrooms are also where accessibility requirements bite hardest, so we confirm the current code position before quoting.
Can you work in light industrial space off Shiloh Road?
Yes. Light industrial, professional office, and retail are all normal scopes for us in Garland, and they frequently sit within a few blocks of each other. What changes between them is the code position of the existing building, not our ability to run the work.
