Commercial Contractor in Clovis, CA

Room for your Clovis business to grow

Clovis keeps adding rooftops, and businesses follow the new neighborhoods. That means fresh retail centers, professional offices and food spots opening on the northeast side of Fresno. If you're one of the owners moving in, you need a contractor who can take a plain shell and turn it into a space that fits your customers. Ben-Rick Construction Inc. handles commercial build-outs and new construction across Clovis.

Commercial Contractor work in Clovis

Old Town Clovis is a different kind of job. Historic downtown buildings have character worth keeping, and they can also come with older framing, tight back rooms and systems patched over the years. Renovating one for a shop, office or restaurant takes careful demo and a plan for bringing plumbing and electrical up to what the new use needs. Work in town may need a permit from the City of Clovis building department.

Here's how a Clovis job usually runs. You tell us about the business and the date you're aiming for. We walk the space together, then you get a written scope and estimate before a single wall comes down. During the build, one person answers your calls and keeps the trades lined up, and at the end we walk the finished space with you.

Typical projects

Typical commercial contractor projects in Clovis

Upstairs storage turned into offices

A shop owner in Old Town Clovis has a second floor that has held boxes and old fixtures for years. Turning it into a couple of rentable offices would help pay for the whole building. We climb the stairs with the owner and look at the floor framing, the stair itself and how power and plumbing could reach a small restroom up there. Older downtown buildings often need framing repairs before new walls go in, so that goes into the written scope along with new sheetrock, lighting, doors and hardware. Work like this may need a permit from the City of Clovis building department. The shop downstairs stays open, and we plan noisy work and deliveries around its hours.

Learning center near new subdivisions

A tutoring company wants a spot in a newer Clovis retail center, close to the subdivisions where its students live. The shell space needs to become several small classrooms, a waiting area for parents and a restroom or two. Quiet matters here, so we talk about insulated metal stud walls and solid doors between rooms. On the site walk we check where the plumbing stub-outs sit in the slab and how much power the space already has for computers and lighting. The written scope and estimate spell out framing, sheetrock, electrical, ceilings, flooring and the front counter. The owner gets one contact throughout, and a final walkthrough of each room before the first sessions start.

Title office reception and conference room

A title and escrow office in Clovis has outgrown its front room. Clients wait in a cramped corner, and signings happen in a borrowed back office. The owner wants a proper reception desk and a conference room that feels professional. We walk the suite together and look at which walls can move and where the new conference room can borrow light from the front windows. The scope covers demo of the old partitions, new metal stud walls, electrical for lighting and screens, sheetrock and texture, a custom reception counter and new floor finishes. It all goes in writing before work starts. Where possible we phase the job so staff keep working in one part of the suite while we build the other.

FAQ

Commercial Contractor in Clovis: questions

We're opening a boutique in Old Town Clovis and the building's pretty old. Can you update it and keep the character?

Yes. We look at which original features you want to keep and plan the demo around them. Framing, electrical and plumbing updates can often happen behind the walls while the storefront look stays.

I signed on a new retail unit in Clovis and it's just concrete and bare studs. What happens first?

First we walk it with you and talk through your layout. Then you get a written scope covering framing, sheetrock, rough-ins, lighting and finishes. Work starts once you've approved it.

My dental office in Clovis needs more treatment rooms. Can you add walls without gutting everything?

Usually. Metal stud partitions can divide existing space, and plumbing and electrical get extended to the new rooms. We'll walk the office and look at where lines can run with the least disruption.

Our franchise wants a Clovis location built to their brand book. Have you got experience with that kind of plan set?

Franchise build-outs to brand plans and standards are part of our commercial work. We follow the finish schedule, millwork details and hardware specs in the plans. Anything that conflicts with the existing building gets flagged early.

We're thinking about a small commercial building on a lot in Clovis. Can one contractor handle the whole thing?

Yes. As a Class B General Building Contractor, we handle commercial new construction from foundation and concrete through framing, rough-ins and finishes. You deal with one point of contact the whole way.

I'm worried the build-out will drag past my Clovis lease start. How do you keep it on track?

We plan around your date from the first call and order materials early where we can. You'll get regular updates, and if something changes you'll hear about it right away. Call (559) 257-2397 to talk it through.

Will my Clovis tenant improvement need a permit, or can we just start?

Many tenant improvements in Clovis may need a permit from the City of Clovis building department, especially when walls, plumbing or electrical change. It's worth checking before work begins. We build to the approved plans once they're in place.

Our cafe's back-of-house layout is a mess. Can you rework it while the front stays pretty much the same?

Yes. We can focus the scope on the prep and dish areas and move plumbing and electrical where your workflow needs them. The dining room can stay mostly as is, and we'll plan the work to limit disruption.

A property loss shut down part of our shop. Who talks to the insurance company?

We prepare an itemized repair scope and estimate and coordinate with your adjuster. Then we rebuild and do a final walkthrough with you. You stay in the loop the whole time.

We manage a few commercial units in Clovis. Can you be our go-to for tenant turnovers?

We can. Property managers use us to demo old layouts, patch and refinish walls, and update floors and lighting between tenants. Each unit gets its own written scope so you know the cost before work starts.
