But, that transition can be a great step in sustaining and growing your business. Understanding commercial construction – the players, process and common terms – will help make the jump less daunting.
From the Ground Up has been providing residents in the Greater Orlando Metro area with landscaping services since 2010. “Anything you need done in the residential market, we can do it,” says Joseph Richardson, who is responsible for business development at From the Ground Up.
Business is booming and the company is looking to capitalize on its success by exploring new ways to diversify and increase revenue. As many residential contractors have done, From the Ground Up is trying to move into commercial construction.
However, there are some distinct differences between residential and commercial construction and
a steep learning curve to making the transition. “We have no idea where to start in the commercial construction industry,” says Richardson. “It’s a bit daunting, but we think the effort will pay off in the end.”
So, where do you begin? This eBook will highlight the difference between residential and commercial construction during the preconstruction phase as well as outline who’s who in commercial construction, the bidding process and lessons learned from a seasoned general contractor who has successfully transitioned from residential to commercial construction.
