Industrial & Commercial Construction FAQs
How much does it cost to build a warehouse?
Warehouse construction costs typically range from $50-$150 per square foot, depending on building specifications, location, and features. Basic warehouse construction (shell building with minimal office space) costs $50-$80/sf, while distribution centers with extensive loading docks, office areas, and specialized systems cost $100-$150/sf.
Our warehouse construction company provides detailed cost estimates specific to your project during the consultation phase.
What is the warehouse construction cost per square foot?
Warehouse construction costs per square foot in the Atlanta area generally range from $50 to $150/sf. Basic warehouse buildings cost $50-$80/sf, while sophisticated distribution centers with climate control, extensive docks, and office buildouts cost $100-$150/sf. Cold storage warehouse construction costs more ($150-$200+/sf) due to specialized insulation and refrigeration requirements.
How long does warehouse construction take?
Most warehouse construction projects take 8-14 months from groundbreaking to completion. Smaller warehouses (50,000-100,000 sf) typically take 8-10 months, while large distribution centers (200,000+ sf) take 12-14 months. Timeline factors include:
- Site work and foundation (2-3 months)
- Steel erection and building envelope (3-4 months)
- Interior buildout and systems (2-4 months)
- Racking and equipment installation (1-2 months)
Our warehouse contractors use fast-track construction methods to compress schedules where possible.
What is industrial construction?
Industrial construction refers to building projects for manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, processing, and other industrial operations. Unlike commercial construction (offices, retail, hospitality), industrial construction focuses on functional facilities that support production, storage, and distribution.
What is design-build construction?
Design-build construction integrates design and construction into a single contract with one team. Instead of hiring separate architects and contractors (traditional design-bid-build), design-build provides a single point of responsibility for your entire project. Benefits include faster delivery, reduced costs, better coordination, and single-source accountability. Our industrial construction company offers design-build services for warehouse construction, manufacturing facilities, and commercial renovation projects.
Do you handle commercial renovation while businesses remain open?
Yes! Our commercial renovation contractors specialize in construction in occupied buildings. We use phased approaches that allow offices, warehouses, and commercial facilities to maintain operations during renovation. We schedule disruptive work during off-hours, use temporary barriers to separate construction zones, and coordinate carefully to minimize business impact.
