Commercial
carpentry.
Build-outs, fixtures and repairs for businesses that cannot afford to close. Off-hours work, hard deadlines, one point of contact.
Your downtime is the real budget.
A retail or restaurant space that is closed is losing money every hour, which makes schedule reliability worth more than a slightly lower bid.
We size commercial work to what we can actually staff, and we say no when a deadline is not realistic rather than discovering it halfway through. Where the job allows, we build components in the shop and install them in a single push — a counter that took two weeks to make can go in overnight.
Nights and weekends are normal for this work. So is working around your inspections, your landlord's rules, and whatever other trades are in the space. We handle the carpentry scope; anything electrical, mechanical or plumbing is contracted by you or your GC.
Landlord and insurance paperwork
Most commercial landlords want a certificate of insurance naming them as additional insured before anyone touches the space. Tell us early and Erika handles it — it is routine, but it stalls a start date when it is left to the last day.
Commercial work we do
Fixtures & displays
Shelving systems, display cases, slat walls, product tables, and checkout counters built to your dimensions and your brand rather than out of a catalog.
Bars & service counters
Bar tops, host stands, service stations and back-of-house shelving. Surfaces specified for cleaning and abuse, not just looks.
Build-outs & built-ins
Partition walls, conference tables, reception desks, storage walls and door and hardware packages for tenant improvements.
Storefront signs
Carved, routed and dimensional wood signage finished for exterior life, plus interior wayfinding and lobby lettering.
Maintenance & repair
Door and frame repair, rot and water damage, stair and railing fixes, and the deferred punch list that keeps getting pushed.
Turnovers
Between-tenant work on a clock: trim and door repair, flooring, closet systems, and the small carpentry that decides how a unit shows.
