Service 06, Design. Build. Grow.
A build-out is a construction project with a lease attached. Rent commencement, landlord approvals and an announced opening date make schedule the dominant constraint.
Bauer-Build works backwards from the date you need to open and manages the approvals, permits and trades required to hold it.
We work within landlord construction rules: submitting plans for approval, meeting insurance and contractor requirements, coordinating building access and hours, and documenting work-letter and tenant-improvement-allowance requirements so reimbursements are not delayed.
Municipal review timelines vary widely across Chicagoland. We identify the reviewing jurisdiction's process early, prepare complete submissions, and track review comments so drawings are not sitting in a queue while your rent clock runs.
Selective demolition, framing and drywall, ceilings, flooring, millwork, doors and hardware, glazing, paint and specialty finishes, coordinated with HVAC distribution, electrical, data, plumbing, fire protection and fire alarm.
Furniture, casework, refrigeration, kitchen equipment, POS and security, signage and IT vendors all need power, data and access at the right moment. We put vendor dates on the construction schedule so nobody arrives to an unready space.
Final inspections, health-department review where applicable, and certificate of occupancy are sequenced so training, stocking and hiring can be planned with confidence.
