Planning and preparation for any construction project is a serious undertaking. Commercial construction projects require attention to details that you generally wouldn’t take into consideration. We created a short checklist that roughly outlines these considerations and how you should approach them. Here is our commercial building construction checklist.

Budget

Any construction project ultimately depends on financing. Commercial buildings require sound financial planning and return sustainability to make them a viable investment. The general guideline is this: don’t build above your means and above the cost-effectiveness of the commercial business housed in the building. Commercial success depends on the building itself, but it also depends on the location, access (roads and other means of transportation) and other economic factors, all of which play a role in determining a budget for your construction project.

Time

Time to completion is an essential assessment skill your contractors have to possess. At Tech 24 Construction, we are deadline driven and take pride in our careful planning and precise execution. Experience is the key factor and many construction projects falter because of inexperienced contractors. Delays in construction bear additional expenses, business plan changes and a myriad of other problems that can ultimately doom your project.

Location-Specific Preparations

Even the best plans can only go so far. You need to take location-specific parameters on-site and allow your project to adapt to them. A great example would be proximity to other commercial or municipal buildings (department stores, hospitals, fire-houses, etc.). Commercial buildings have to be an organic part of the neighborhood and serve a purpose, which is why it’s important to plan and construct with this

Safety

All construction projects must follow strict safety guidelines. Every facet of construction is included: design features, space planning, fire safety, worker safety, construction worker safety, environmental safety (these would fall under location specific preparations as well), etc. We have a specialized department that deals with these issues, ensuring that every construction project Tech 24 Construction undertakes is 100% safety compliant.

Contractors

The items on this checklist and the success of the project ultimately depend on the contractors you choose. If they don’t have the experience and knowledge to complete a construction project to match the exact specifications, it won’t matter how carefully you planned. If you want your project done efficiently and correctly, contact us and learn why our reputation is impeccable.
