Commercial Fit Outs
Commercial Fit Out & Tenant Improvement Services in St. Augustine & Jacksonville, FL
Securing the perfect business location within Northeast Florida is important for each company. However, it is often the case that these spaces are delivered as a ‘vanilla shell’, which is just a basic structure. This structure here does not have all of the specific layout, or the finishes, and even the functionality that your business needs if it hopes to operate with efficiency, or to serve all clients with effectiveness, and even to reflect your brand’s own identity. Commercial Fit Outs as well as Tenant Improvements exist just to transform this blank canvas such that it becomes an energetic, functional, inviting setting.

What Are Commercial Fit Outs & Tenant Improvements?
Commercial Fit Outs, also called Commercial Build Outs or Tenant Improvements (TI), tailor a bought or leased commercial interior for business operations of a certain tenant. A full-scale interior construction project may be a possibility and so too are minor modifications.
Typical elements included in a commercial fit out are:
- Interior Layout & Walls: Constructing new walls, moving existing ones to create offices, conference rooms, retail areas, etc.
- Flooring: Installing appropriate flooring for different zones (reception, workspaces, retail floor, kitchen).
- Ceilings & Lighting: Installing ceiling systems and designing and installing lighting optimized for the space’s function and ambiance.
- HVAC & Electrical: Modifying or installing new systems to meet the tenant’s specific needs and code requirements.
- Plumbing: Installing or modifying plumbing for restrooms, kitchens, or specialized equipment (e.g., in medical or restaurant spaces).
- Finishes: Painting, wall coverings, millwork, cabinetry, countertops, and other aesthetic details that reflect the business’s brand.
- Doors & Hardware: Installing interior doors, frames, and hardware.
Essentially, a commercial fit-out turns some shell or previous tenant’s space into an environment ready for you to move in, that is specific for your business needs.
