    Our Design-Build Approach

    Rock Solid Construction uses a design-build approach on every commercial project. That means one team handles both the architectural design and the construction instead of hiring a separate architect and then bidding the project out to contractors.

    Why does that matter to you?

    Faster timeline: design and construction overlap instead of running sequentially
    Lower cost: fewer change orders, less miscommunication between separate teams
    Single point of accountability: if something needs to change, you talk to us, not three different companies
    Better results: the people designing your building are the same people building it

    What Is Tenant Finish-Out?

    Tenant finish-out (also called tenant improvement or TI) is the process of customizing a commercial space for a specific business. If you’re leasing a shell space, or building a new retail center or office building, we handle the interior build-out: framing, drywall, flooring, lighting, restrooms, HVAC, and any specialty requirements your business needs.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does commercial construction cost per square foot?
    Commercial construction costs in Texas typically range from $80–$200+ per
    square foot, depending on the building type and finish level. A basic shell commercial building runs $80–$120/sq ft. Office build-outs with standard finishes
    run $120–$160/sq ft. High-end retail or medical spaces can exceed $200/sq ft.
    We provide detailed, line-item estimates so you know exactly where every dollar
    goes.
    How long does it take to build a commercial building?
    A typical
    commercial building in West Texas takes 4–8 months from groundbreaking to
    completion, depending on size and complexity. Permitting and design add 4–
    8 weeks upfront. We’ll give you a detailed construction timeline during your
    consultation, and we stick to it.
    Do I need a general contractor for commercial construction?
    Yes, in
    most cases, you need a licensed general contractor for commercial construction
    in Texas. A GC manages the entire project: subcontractors, scheduling, inspections, permits, and code compliance. Trying to self-manage a commercial build
    without a GC usually costs more in the long run due to coordination problems,
    delays, and failed inspections. Rock Solid Construction serves as your single
    point of accountability.
    What is design-build commercial construction?
    Design-build means
    one company handles both the architectural design and the construction. Instead of hiring a separate architect and then bidding the project out to contractors, you work with one team from start to finish. It’s faster, reduces miscommunication, and usually costs less. Rock Solid Construction offers design-build
    services for commercial projects across West Texas.
    How do I get building permits for a commercial project in Lubbock?
    Commercial building permits in Lubbock go through the City of Lubbock Development Services department. You’ll need site plans, engineered drawings, and various approvals depending on the project. Rock Solid Construction
    handles the entire permitting process as part of our turnkey service. We submit
    the plans, manage the reviews, and coordinate inspections.
