A leased commercial space may have the right location but the wrong layout. Tenant improvements allow the interior to be adapted to the business, employees, equipment, and customers who will use it.
Spillco Construction provides commercial tenant improvement services in Yukon and throughout the Oklahoma City metro. We work with tenants, property owners, and project representatives to renovate commercial spaces for new occupancy, business expansion, or updated operations.
From interior layout changes to finishes and utility modifications, we help coordinate the construction required to prepare the space for use.

Before Beginning a Tenant Improvement Project
Review the Lease
The lease may identify which improvements are allowed, who approves the plans, and whether the property owner contributes to construction costs.
Confirm the Existing Conditions
An existing space may contain outdated finishes, hidden damage, or utilities that do not align with the new layout.
Define the Required Layout
The business should identify how many offices, workstations, customer areas, storage rooms, and specialty spaces are needed.
Identify Equipment Requirements
Commercial equipment may require dedicated power, plumbing, ventilation, drainage, or structural support.
Establish an Approval Process
Landlord, architectural, engineering, and permitting approvals may be needed before construction begins.
Set a Realistic Opening Schedule
The target opening date should account for design, approvals, material ordering, construction, inspections, and equipment installation.
Working With Tenants and Property Owners
Tenant improvement projects often involve multiple decision-makers.
Spillco Construction can communicate with:
Business owners.
Property owners.
Property managers.
Landlord representatives.
Architects and engineers.
Equipment vendors.
Other approved project partners.
Roles and responsibilities should be established early so that approvals and decisions do not unnecessarily delay construction.
