Review Your Space Before Signing a Lease

A commercial space may need more than new finishes. Existing HVAC capacity, electrical service, plumbing, restroom layout, accessibility, fire protection and landlord requirements can affect the work and the budget.

A pre-lease construction review helps identify visible conditions, questions for the landlord, likely drawing needs and preliminary scope assumptions before the tenant commits. Share the proposed use, floor plan, landlord work letter and target opening date so the review can address the actual project.

From Space Review to Turnover

  1. Review the property and intended use. Confirm the address, existing conditions, landlord requirements and project goals.
  2. Develop the scope and budget. Coordinate plans, allowances, owner decisions, pricing assumptions and long-lead items.
  3. Coordinate approvals and permits. Track the required design documents, landlord review and authority submissions.
  4. Manage construction. Coordinate trades, schedule, field conditions, inspections and owner communication.
  5. Complete turnover. Address testing, punch-list items, closeout documents and the requirements for using the finished space.

Commercial Build-Out Questions

What affects the cost of a commercial build-out?

The building’s condition, square footage, intended use, required layout changes, mechanical and electrical capacity, plumbing, fire protection, finishes and landlord requirements all affect the scope. Plans and a site review help turn a general idea into a project-specific estimate.

Can GL Lewis review a space before the lease is signed?

A pre-lease review can address visible existing conditions, the proposed use, available plans, landlord criteria, utility questions, preliminary budget assumptions and schedule risks before a final construction scope is established.

Can work be planned around an occupied building?

Some projects can be phased around ongoing operations. The plan must account for access, work hours, utility interruptions, dust and noise, protected circulation, inspections and the approved construction documents.

What information should I send for the first consultation?

Send the property address, intended use, approximate square footage, ownership or lease status, target dates and any plans, photographs or landlord requirements. Describe the work you want to accomplish and any known budget or operating constraints.

Does design-build replace the architect or engineer?

Design-build coordinates the owner, contractor and properly licensed design professionals. Architectural and engineering services remain with the professionals responsible for that work.
