How a build-out works with us
Talk through the space
Call or send the quote form with the address, square footage, use and target opening date. We ask about the lease, the landlord work letter and any drawings you already have.
Walk the site, price the scope
A project manager walks the space with you, checks the existing systems and returns a written, trade-by-trade estimate with a realistic schedule.
Permit, build, hand over
We run permits and inspections with the local building department, coordinate every trade and hand over the keys with as-builts and warranties.

How we run a San Rafael build-out
Bay Area build-outs move fast and carry high labor and permit costs, so complete drawings and early ordering matter. San Rafael tenants usually expect strong technology infrastructure, glass, good acoustics and Title 24 lighting controls, and older buildings often need accessibility path-of-travel upgrades. We build the schedule around plan check, long-lead glass and HVAC, and the building’s contractor rules.
Every project starts with a walk-through of the space, a written trade-by-trade estimate and a schedule built backward from your opening date. Call (866) 646-0405 or send the quote form to start.
