Spaces That Work as Hard as You Do

Commercial interior renovations transform raw or outdated spaces into productive, code-compliant environments that serve your business objectives. Whether it's a corporate office buildout, retail store renovation, medical office fit-out, or restaurant interior construction, commercial projects demand expertise in building codes, fire safety, ADA compliance, and tenant improvement coordination that residential work doesn't require.

Lion Construction Management delivers commercial interior renovations across all five NYC boroughs and Nassau County. We build demising walls, install commercial ceilings and lighting, construct ADA-compliant restrooms, run data and electrical infrastructure, install commercial HVAC, and complete all finish work to create spaces that reflect your brand and serve your customers.

Our team manages the full commercial renovation process—from initial landlord work letter negotiation through DOB permits, construction, inspections, and certificate of occupancy. We understand commercial lease timelines and work aggressively to get you open on schedule.

Why Professional Interior Renovation Matters

Interior renovation is the most comprehensive form of home improvement — it can involve every building system and every surface in your home. Removing a wall might mean relocating ductwork, rerouting electrical conduit, and installing a structural beam. Relocating a kitchen means extending plumbing supply and waste lines, sometimes across an entire floor. This complexity is why interior renovation should never be approached piecemeal. Lion Construction Management plans the entire project holistically during pre-construction — identifying every structural, mechanical, and sequencing consideration before demolition begins. Our integrated project management means one team coordinates your architect, structural engineer, plumber, electrician, HVAC contractor, and finish trades. The difference between a chaotic renovation and a smooth one is the quality of planning and management behind it.
