What Drives the Final Number

Up and down: the honest answer.

Pushes price up

  • ▲MEP rerouting (moving plumbing, HVAC, or electrical)
  • ▲After-hours / weekend work in occupied buildings
  • ▲Brand-finish package (real stone, custom millwork, specialty lighting)
  • ▲Specialty MEP (salon plumbing, dental compressed air, restaurant grease hood)
  • ▲ADA scope discovered during the site visit
  • ▲Landlord-imposed building rules (freight elevator, MEP shutdowns)

Keeps price down

  • ▼Standard finish package: LVP + paint + ACT ceiling
  • ▼Keep MEP locations as-is when the layout allows
  • ▼Flexible schedule that lets us sequence trades without overtime
  • ▼Walk the space with us early so the scope is locked before we mobilize
  • ▼Reuse existing doors, frames, and built-ins where condition allows

Doctors' Office Reception & Check-In Rebuild, Mansfield, TX

Mansfield, TX

Doctors' Office Reception & Check-In Rebuild

Reception rebuilt in a doctors' office in Mansfield. The glass-enclosed check-in window came out, the openings were reframed with painted mullions, and the counter was rebuilt with a dark wood slat front under a light stone-look top, mitered and returned down the end of the run. A lower counter section sits at the end of the run beside a pass-through to the adjoining room.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

What's a 'small business remodel' in DFW?+

Any commercial tenant improvement or renovation in the $10,000 to $100,000 range, typically 800 to 3,500 SF spaces. The most common scopes are office refreshes (paint, flooring, lighting), salon and med-spa build-outs, single-room medical/dental updates, retail bay refreshes, and small restaurant/café build-outs.

Why do most contractors skip jobs this size?+

PM overhead. Large GCs need 8 to 12% margin on a $50K project to make it pencil, which prices them out of this size of work, so they cherry-pick $500K+ jobs and ignore the rest. We built our process around this size: lighter PM cost, tighter trade coordination, and a written scope that doesn't require a 40-page proposal.

What's actually included in the $10K to $100K range?+

Labor, materials, permits, city inspections, and project management. Brand-specific signage, FF&E (furniture, fixtures, equipment), and IT/AV cabling are typically separate line items so the scope stays transparent. You see the full breakdown in writing before you sign.

How fast can you start?+

Most small remodels start within 2 to 4 weeks of contract signing. We can pull permits, finalize materials, and mobilize a crew on a fast schedule because the scope is smaller and we don't have to coordinate 8 trades, usually 3 to 5.

Do you handle landlord approvals and TI allowance reconciliation?+

Yes. We work directly with property managers on tenant work letters, after-hours coordination, freight elevator scheduling, and TI allowance documentation. If your landlord requires specific contractor pre-qualification, we file the COI and W-9 packet.

Will the price hold? Or will it creep?+

It holds. Our scopes are written in full and the price is locked at signing. Change orders happen only if you request a scope change, and they're priced and approved in writing before any work starts. No surprise overruns absorbed into the invoice.
