Ground-Up Commercial

From raw land to open for business

New commercial buildings delivered design-build: site work, structure, envelope and interiors under one accountable contract — typically $200–$400 per sq ft in 2026.

Ground-Up Delivery

One contract, one team, one call

Ground-up commercial construction rewards teams that control the whole chain. As your design-build contractor we manage architecture, engineering, permits, site work and vertical construction — you track one schedule and one budget.

  • Feasibility & budget modeling before you buy the land
  • Site work: clearing, utilities, grading, parking
  • Wood-frame and light commercial structures
  • Full envelope: roofing, siding, glazing, waterproofing
  • Interior build-out to your tenant program
  • Permit management through certificate of occupancy
