Restaurant & retail remodels
Counters, kitchens, bars and new openings, with equipment loads accounted for.
Rooftop equipment

Mezzanines & platforms
Storage mezzanines, equipment platforms and racking designed to code.
Openings & steel beams
Lintels, beams and new openings cut into existing load-bearing walls.
Industrial & warehouse
Building alterations, equipment foundations and structural upgrades.
