Crafting Spaces That Stand the Test of Time.

Let’s Talk Building: The Answers You Need

Tenant Improvements (TI), also known as “build-outs,” refer to the modifications made to a commercial space to customize it for a specific tenant’s needs. This can include everything from minor cosmetic changes like new paint and flooring to major structural overhauls such as adding walls, plumbing, electrical systems, and HVAC. Essentially, it’s the process of transforming a raw, empty space into a functional and aesthetically pleasing environment ready for a tenant to move into and operate their business.

The financial responsibility for TIs is typically negotiated between the landlord and the tenant and is outlined in the lease agreement. Often, the landlord will offer a “Tenant Improvement Allowance,” which is a specific dollar amount per square foot that they will contribute towards the cost of the project. The tenant is then responsible for any costs that exceed this allowance. In some cases, the landlord may cover the full cost of the improvements, or the tenant may be solely responsible.

The timeline for a TI project varies widely depending on the scope and complexity of the work. Simple cosmetic changes might only take a few weeks, while a full-scale build-out for a restaurant or medical office could take several months, or even longer. Key factors that influence the timeline include the design and permitting phase, material lead times, and the actual construction schedule. It’s crucial to have a detailed project plan and timeline from the beginning to ensure the project stays on track.

A typical TI project follows a structured process:

Occupancy: The space is ready for the tenant to move in and begin operations.

Initial Consultation: The tenant and landlord define the project scope and budget.

Design & Planning: An architect or designer creates detailed plans and drawings based on the tenant’s needs.

Permitting: The plans are submitted to local authorities for approval and permits.

Bidding & Contractor Selection: General contractors are invited to bid on the project, and one is selected.

Construction: The chosen contractor begins the build-out, managing all trades and ensuring quality.

Completion & Punch List: The project is completed, and a final walkthrough is conducted to address any minor issues (the “punch list”).

Hiring a professional, such as a project manager, general contractor, or design-build firm, is highly recommended for TI projects. These professionals have the expertise to navigate the complex process of design, permitting, and construction. They can help you:

Mitigate risks and unexpected issues. Ultimately, a professional will ensure your space is built to your specifications, allowing you to focus on your business rather than the construction project.

Stay within budget and on schedule.

Ensure the work meets all building codes and regulations.

Coordinate with different trades (plumbers, electricians, etc.).

Handle the legal and contractual aspects of the project.
