Construction Management
Commercial Construction Management Across British Columbia
Most commercial projects go wrong in the same three ways. The budget moves, the schedule slips, and nobody will give you a straight answer about either.
TBI Management takes all of that off your desk. We manage commercial construction throughout British Columbia, from the first set of drawings to the final walkthrough, and we stay accountable for the cost and the date the whole way through.
Our owner is personally involved in every project we take on. We use subtrades we have worked with for years. We deal with the designers, suppliers, landlords and building departments on your behalf, and we tell you where the job stands every week, including when the news is not good.
National brands trust us with their locations. Amplifon, Purdys Chocolatier, Ever New and TD Bank have all put their spaces in our hands.
Three Ways We Build for Commercial Clients
Most of our work falls into one of three categories. Whichever one fits your project, the management behind it is the same.
Design Build
You have a space and an idea, and no interest in coordinating a designer, an engineer, a permit office and six trades yourself. We handle all of it under a single contract, so the people pricing your project are the same people drawing it.
That is how you avoid paying for a set of plans you cannot afford to build. Costs develop alongside the design, while changes are still cheap to make.
Tenant Improvement
Mall stores, offices, restaurants, clinics, gyms and regulated retail. We build out leased commercial space and manage the whole job, including the work letters, landlord approvals, insurance, hoarding and after-hours access that most contractors hand straight back to you.
Your rent is running from the day you sign. Every week we save you is money back in your pocket.
Renovations
Renovating an empty building is easy. Renovating one that is still trading, still staffed and still tenanted is the hard part, and it is what we do most.
We phase the work around your operating hours, contain the dust and noise properly, and keep the site separated from your customers. Nights, weekends, section by section, whatever keeps you open.
How We Run Your Project
We start by establishing exactly what the project needs to do, then develop the plans and specifications to match. From there we assemble the team to deliver it: designers, engineers, suppliers and the subtrades best suited to your building.
Questions around construction, design, schedule and cost get identified early and brought to you with options, not just problems. Where we are tying into an existing structure, we confirm the work will not compromise what is already there before anyone opens a wall.
Throughout all of it, you hear from us consistently. Constant communication with the tenant and the owner is the single biggest reason our projects finish on time and on budget, and it is the reason clients keep calling us back for their next location.
If you’re interested, bring us a drawing set, a lease you are about to sign, a building with a problem, or nothing but an idea and a budget. The consultation is free and there is no obligation.
We will tell you straight what the job takes, what it costs, and what needs to change if the two do not line up.
