Exterior Genie remodels commercial and multifamily properties inside and out, from tenant buildouts and storefront updates to apartment unit turns. As a licensed SC commercial general contractor, #122463, we coordinate the trades and scheduling so your property keeps operating.

When a new tenant signs a lease, the space usually needs to be adapted: new walls, ceilings, lighting, restrooms, finishes, and sometimes changes to mechanical and plumbing systems. We build to approved plans, coordinate permitting and inspections, and work with the landlord, tenant, and design team to keep decisions moving.
We also handle second-generation spaces where the goal is to update finishes and repair wear rather than rebuild, helping owners re-lease space without a full gut renovation.
The outside of a commercial building shapes customer perception before anyone walks in. Storefronts, awnings, canopies, siding, trim, paint-ready repairs, entrances, and signage support areas are all part of our commercial remodeling work.
Because exterior work often happens while a business is open, we plan for safe customer access, staging areas, and work hours that limit disruption.
Property managers need units turned efficiently between residents. Turn scopes can include drywall repair, flooring, paint, cabinet and countertop replacement, fixture updates, doors and hardware, and bathroom repairs. We can also address larger renovation programs across multiple units or buildings.
Exterior multifamily needs such as breezeways, decks, stairs, and siding repairs are covered on our apartment deck and stair page.
Remodeling an active property requires communication. We discuss tenant notifications, after-hours or phased work where needed, protection of occupied areas, and how utilities will be handled during shutdowns.
To request a bid, share the property address, scope, photos of the space, and any plans. Clear information up front leads to a more accurate proposal.
Many commercial remodels involve both the inside and the outside of a building. A restaurant may need a new dining room layout along with a refreshed storefront and canopy. An office may need interior finishes along with roof and siding repairs. Having one contractor manage both sides means less coordination for the owner and a single schedule for the whole property.
We also handle the paint-ready carpentry, trim, and siding repairs that commonly appear on older commercial buildings, preparing surfaces for painters or new finishes.
For owners managing several properties, we can scope recurring needs across sites so similar work is priced and scheduled consistently.
For property managers, consistent turn scopes help keep units moving between residents. We can work from your standard specifications for paint colors, flooring, fixtures, and hardware so every unit is finished to the same standard. When a turn reveals hidden issues such as water damage under a sink or behind a shower, we document it with photos and provide a clear repair scope before proceeding.
Communication with on-site staff matters on turn work. We coordinate unit access, key handling, and completion notices so the leasing team knows when a unit is ready to show.
Tenant improvements are often tied to a lease start or a grand opening. We review the scope against those dates early, identify long-lead materials, and flag permit or design questions that could delay the work, so owners can make decisions with real information instead of assumptions.
Before a bid walkthrough, it helps to confirm who approves the scope, whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for each item, and whether any building standards apply to finishes, signage, or storefront changes. Sorting those responsibilities out early prevents gaps where an item is assumed to be someone else's, and keeps the proposal aligned with the lease.

Yes. We review the proposed occupancy, existing conditions and owner or tenant requirements to define the work. Interior partitions, finishes, utilities and exterior changes should be coordinated in one scope, with responsibilities and approvals identified before construction begins.
Yes. We discuss unit renovations and turns with apartment owners and property managers. An individual unit scope should distinguish finish replacement from plumbing, electrical, moisture or structural repairs, and establish who provides access and approves changes.
Yes. Exterior rehabilitation can be coordinated with interior improvements. Discuss siding, trim, windows, doors and drainage issues during the site review so water-entry problems are not concealed behind newly renovated interiors.
