Lafayette Commercial Construction Services
How We Build and Deliver
There are several different ways we build for Louisiana commercial property owners, depending on what is best for them, not us. While some Lafayette commercial builders are just general contractors, Chase Group Construction offers pre-construction consulting and is known for the value we provide during our design build process. Whether you have architectural plans in hand, or you need help turning a napkin sketch into reality, we've got you covered.
Demolition
Demolition is a construction service that involves the tearing down or dismantling of existing structures and removing the resulting debris. This service may be required for a variety of reasons, such as clearing the way for new construction, removing hazardous materials or unsafe structures, or repurposing a site. Demolition contractors typically use heavy equipment, such as excavators, bulldozers, and wrecking balls, to bring down buildings and other structures safely and efficiently. After the demolition is complete, the contractor will typically remove any remaining debris and perform site cleanup to prepare the area for future use. Demolition services may also include environmental remediation, such as removing asbestos or other hazardous materials from the site.
Tenant Build Out
Most retail and office buildings start out with tenant spaces consisting of little more than four walls and a door. The idea is that the tenant spaces will be finished to meet the specific needs of each tenant. The process of constructing and completing this raw space is known as the “build-out.”
At Chase Group, we can help to identify what is most important for your design and build within your budget. Whether you have medical, office, mall, industrial, or a national chain space that needs a build-out, we are ready to tackle your project.
In the tenant build-out phase you have the freedom to choose flooring, office sizes, paint colors, trim, kitchen space, or any other desired change to space. If you need help identifying lease space, we can help facilitate your needs as well. We have a real estate broker on staff to find the space you need for your business.
Build to Suit Construction
Build to suit is a method of construction that involves a tenant wishing to occupy a certain type of building, but they do not wish to own that specific building or land; hence they wish to lease the building from the owner. We provide many options for tenants based on our past clients. You may have blueprints to a specific build-out or you may need advice of how to construct your structure, which Chase Group can provide. We have sets of blueprints for you to look at or consult with us to originate your needs in a building. Also, we can consult with an architect to view more options.We will pay for all of the construction to meet your specifications. We also can provide several options in leasing terms to fit your needs. We understand that there are different budgets and requirements to be met, and we are here to help facilitate a budget to work for you.
Steel Erection: Industrial & Commercial Buildings
Steel erection is a critical construction service involving the installation and assembly of structural steel systems for industrial buildings and other commercial structures. Our experienced crews have the specialized equipment and capabilities necessary to erect complete steel framing systems, as well as canopies, mezzanine decks, pavilions, equipment platforms, and custom security enclosures. The work requires skilled professionals trained in the safe handling, positioning, and assembly of steel components ranging from conventional beams and columns to complex trusses, braces, and architectural framing systems. The process typically begins with the coordinated delivery and staging of fabricated steel components at the project site. Cranes and other heavy equipment are then used to lift and precisely position each component in accordance with the approved construction documents. Once installed, the structural members are secured to one another and anchored to the building foundation using engineered bolted connections, fasteners, and welding techniques. Professional steel erection plays an essential role in the safe, efficient, and successful completion of industrial buildings, commercial facilities, and other large-scale structures. These structures often utilize a standing seam metal roof with zero fastener penetrations for a water tight seal or a thermoplastic polyolefin - TPO Roof. It is a single-ply roofing membrane commonly used on low-slope commercial and industrial roofs. TPO sheets are heat-welded at the seams to create a durable, watertight roofing system. It is popular because it is reflective, energy-efficient, resistant to UV exposure and chemicals, and generally cost-effective.
