Commercial Contractor in Sunnyside, CA

A fresh start for older business spaces near Sunnyside

Sunnyside is an established neighborhood on the southeast side of Fresno. If your business works out of one of the older buildings on this side of town, it may be due for an update to keep up with your customers and your staff. Ben-Rick Construction Inc. renovates that kind of space, from new layouts and lighting to rebuilt restrooms and fresh finishes, for owners and tenants alike.

Commercial Contractor work in Sunnyside

Updating an older commercial space usually starts behind the walls. Old wiring may struggle with new equipment, plumbing may need rerouting for a new restroom or break room, and past repairs sometimes hide problems. We open things up carefully during demo, show you what we find, and adjust the plan with you before moving on. Nothing gets covered back up until you've seen it.

Sunnyside itself is unincorporated and permitted through Fresno County, while nearby addresses inside Fresno city limits may go through the City of Fresno. We sort that out at the start. From there it's a site walk, a written scope and estimate before work begins, and one person to call while the job is underway. Owners and tenants both get a clear picture of what's being built.

Typical projects

Typical commercial contractor projects in Sunnyside

Barbershop remodel in an older unit

A barber has taken over an older unit in a small center near Sunnyside and wants the shop to look sharp for customers. The old space has one sink, a few outlets and worn flooring. Each chair needs its own station with power and a nearby sink, and the waiting area needs to feel welcoming. We walk the unit with the barber, check the plumbing and panel, and plan the station layout around what's there. The written scope covers plumbing for new sinks, electrical circuits at each chair, sheetrock repairs, lighting, millwork for the stations and new floor finishes. We keep the barber informed at every step.

Dining room expansion into the next unit

A family restaurant in southeast Fresno, near Sunnyside, has a line out the door on weekends. The unit next door just went vacant, and the owners want to break through and add seating. We walk both spaces, check the wall between them and look at what the new side needs for lighting, outlets and restroom access. The written scope covers demo of the shared wall with proper framing at the opening, electrical, sheetrock, paint and floor finishes that match the existing dining room. The work in the new unit happens behind a temporary partition, so the restaurant keeps serving while the expansion gets built.

Chiropractic lobby and treatment rooms

A chiropractor has practiced for years in an older office building near Sunnyside, and the lobby and treatment rooms show it. Stained ceiling tiles, dated paneling and harsh lights don't match the care patients get. The goal is a clean, bright space with a better front desk. We walk the office together and decide what gets demoed and what gets refinished. The written scope covers removing the paneling, new sheetrock and texture, updated lighting, a new front desk, doors and hardware, and fresh floor finishes. Sunnyside addresses are permitted through Fresno County, and nearby city addresses may go through the City of Fresno, so we check that first.
