Tenant improvements and retail fit-outs in Terre Haute

Building owners and tenants hire us to turn an empty space into an open store or office: walls, ceilings, restrooms, flooring and paint, built to the lease and scheduled to opening day.

For building owners

Get a vacant suite ready to lease, or build out the improvements in a new lease. We price from the work letter or your drawings, coordinate with the tenant’s team, and finish on the date the lease depends on.

For tenants

Turn your new space into your store, office or service location. If your lease requires the building owner’s approval of plans and contractors, we provide the certificate of insurance and the drawings they’ll ask for.

How a fit-out runs

  1. Call or request an estimate — Doug Stoliby, our sales manager, reaches out within 1 business day.
  2. Site visit — We walk the space with you, measure and talk through what has to change and when.
  3. Budget and scope — In writing, within 5 business days.
  4. Drawings and permits — Drawings through our drafting partner when the project needs them, and we pull the permits.
  5. Proposal and agreement — One all-inclusive price with permits and sales tax built in, e-signed in JobTread and good for 7 days.
  6. Build — Co-owner Ryan Bolinger runs the day-to-day. Schedule updates and change orders show up in your JobTread client portal.
  7. Walkthrough — Punch list, then a Notice of Substantial Completion, which starts your one-year workmanship warranty.

Payment and warranty

Build-outs and renovations follow a staged schedule: 25% at signing, 25% on the first day of work, 25% at rough-in, 15% at substantial completion and 10% after the punch list. When we work as a subcontractor for a general contractor, we bill through the GC’s pay-application process.

Our one-year workmanship warranty starts at substantial completion, with warranty visits scheduled within 7 business days.

Tenant improvement questions

Can you work from the building owner’s work letter?

Yes. We’ll price exactly what it calls for and flag anything that’s missing.

Do you need drawings?

For most fit-outs with new walls or restrooms, yes. We coordinate drawings through our drafting partner, and an architect or engineer when the code requires one.

Can you work at night in a shopping center?

Disruptive work can be scheduled around business hours when needed.

Do you do storefronts?

We’ve replaced a mall storefront door. Full storefront glass goes to a glass subcontractor under us.
