Commercial Construction
Commercial General Contractor in NYC
A-to-Z renovation and new build, handled by one team from the first walkthrough to the final punch list.
Art-Tech Construction Corp is a commercial general contractor in NYC — A-to-Z renovation and new build, handled by one team from the first walkthrough to the final punch list. Founded in 2017 and based in New York, we serve our priority clients in order — offices, schools, organizations, and institutions — and build and renovate workplaces, classrooms, administrative spaces, storefronts, restaurants, and multifamily properties across all five boroughs. Residential work is secondary.
Hiring separate trades and chasing separate schedules is where commercial projects lose time and money. With Art-Tech, you get one contractor and one point of contact coordinating the full scope — carpentry, electrical, concrete, flooring, painting, roofing, and finishes — so your project moves in sequence, not in circles. Call (212) 960-3895 for a free consultation and a free quote.
Office renovation and tenant improvements
Your office has to work on day one — not week three. As an office renovation contractor in NYC, we deliver office renovations and tenant improvements (TI) that turn raw or tired space into a functional workplace: layout changes and framing, carpentry, electrical work, flooring, painting, and final finishes. Whether you are a landlord preparing a suite for a new tenant or a business moving into a new floor, we plan the work around your move-in date and your building's rules — and build the schedule backwards from the deadline you have to hit.
Office projects cover open work areas, private offices, conference and meeting rooms, reception areas, break rooms, and administrative workplaces. For occupied offices, work can be phased by area, scheduled to limit disruption to staff, and contained so the rest of the workplace stays usable wherever possible. Tell us your lease, move-in, or reopening date at the consultation and the phasing, trade sequence, and punch list will be built around it.
School, institutional, and organizational renovation
As a school renovation contractor in NYC, Art-Tech renovates educational and institutional spaces with the academic calendar at the center of the plan. Typical scope includes classrooms, administrative offices, libraries and shared learning spaces, corridors, common areas, and staff workspaces — carpentry, electrical work, flooring, painting, doors, and finishes coordinated under one contract.
Many school and institutional projects are best sequenced for summer break, school holidays, and other planned closures, when larger or noisier phases can be completed with fewer people in the building. Where work must happen during term time in an occupied educational building, we phase by room or area, contain work zones, schedule disruptive phases thoughtfully, and communicate the plan clearly to administrators so teaching, learning, and daily operations can continue with as little disruption as possible.
The same approach serves organizations and other institutions: offices and administrative areas, program and meeting spaces, common areas, and interior and exterior commercial work — plus multifamily common-area renovations, unit turnovers and upgrades, concrete and roofing work, carpentry, painting, and flooring — phased carefully so occupied buildings stay functional, with schedules communicated clearly to management.
Retail and restaurant build-outs
In retail and hospitality, every week of delay is a week of lost sales. We build out retail stores, showrooms, cafes, and restaurants from shell or second-generation space through to opening-ready — coordinating the trades, finishes, and inspections that stand between a signed lease and a first customer. Bring your target opening date to the first consultation; it shapes the plan from the start.
New build and ground-up construction
For ground-up work, the general contractor is the project. Art-Tech manages new build construction A to Z — coordinating site and concrete work, structure, roofing, carpentry, electrical, and finishes under one contract and one schedule. If you are still at the feasibility stage, start with a free consultation: an early conversation about scope, phasing, and budget saves expensive changes later.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How much does a commercial general contractor in NYC cost?
There is no honest one-size-fits-all price — cost depends on the size of the space, the condition of the building, the level of finishes, and how much trade work the project needs. After a free site walkthrough, you receive a detailed written scope and a free quote covering the full A-to-Z work. Call (212) 960-3895 to schedule your walkthrough.
How long does a commercial renovation or build-out take in NYC?
Timelines depend on scope, permits, building approvals, and material lead times. During your free consultation we map the phases and build the schedule backwards from the date you need to open, move in, or hand over — with milestone updates throughout, so a delay is flagged early, not discovered late.
Do I need permits for a commercial renovation in New York City?
Most commercial renovations that change layout, structure, electrical, or use do require NYC filings and permits, and many buildings also require management approval before work begins. Permitting is part of our planning phase: we help coordinate the required filings and schedule inspections into the build, so the project stays compliant.
Can you renovate while our business or building stays open?
Yes — phased work in occupied buildings is a core part of what we do. Work is contained, noisy phases are scheduled thoughtfully, and tenants or staff get clear notice of what is happening and when. Tell us your operating hours at the consultation and the phasing plan will be built around them.
Can you renovate a school or institutional building around the academic calendar?
Yes. School and institutional renovation is planned around the academic calendar from the start — larger phases can be targeted to summer break, school holidays, and planned closures, while term-time work in an occupied educational building is phased by classroom, administrative office, or area, with contained work zones and disruptive phases scheduled thoughtfully. Share your term dates, closure windows, and any building or administration requirements at the free consultation, and the schedule will be built around them. Call (212) 960-3895 to discuss your school, organization, or institution project.
