FORMACORE TICOMMERCIAL CONTRACTOR · TEXAS

Your space opens on the date you promised.

FormaCore TI takes commercial spaces from permit set to keys — turnkey builds, buildouts, rebrands, remodels and capital improvements — with our own crews on the finish work instead of a scope handed off and hoped for.

Six minutes to submit. Every inquiry gets a written response within one business day, including the ones we decline.

Brands we've built for

  • CVS
  • Intertek
  • United Rentals
  • CosmoProf
  • H‑E‑B
  • T‑Mobile

Full-scope commercial construction

From ground-up turnkey builds to targeted capital improvements. We turn down work we cannot staff — you hear that on day one, not week six.

Finished corridor with acoustic ceiling and tile floor

Turnkey construction

End-to-end delivery from design through final handover. One team, one contract, fully operational on day one.

Design-build / CMAR
Metal framing and drywall going up in a commercial shell

Buildouts

Cold or grey shell to a finished, inspected, brand-standard space. Permitting, trades, finishes, punch and closeout under one contract.

2,000–25,000 SF typical
Finished room with acoustic ceiling and wall standards

Rebrands

Rollout work on an occupied site: phased nights and weekends so the store keeps trading while finishes, fixtures and signage change over.

Phased, occupied sites
Restroom mid-remodel

Remodels

Structural and cosmetic alterations that improve layout, flow and function. Demo, MEP coordination, new partitions and ceilings, ADA corrections.

Single or multi-site
Warehouse interior with new drywall walls

Capital improvements

Compliance upgrades and modernization delivered with minimal disruption. Scoped against your budget cycle, not ours.

Budget-cycle scoped

The finish work is ours, not a phone call

Most contractors our size broker every trade. We self-perform the divisions that decide whether a job finishes clean and on time, which is why our punch lists are short and our schedules hold.

What that buys you

  • One crew accountable for the finishes the customer actually sees
  • Self-perform pricing on the largest cost block, not a marked-up sub quote
  • Schedule recovery without renegotiating with three subcontractors
  • Punch closed by the same people who hung and painted it

Where we work

  • El Paso metro — crews on site same day
  • West Texas — Midland, Odessa, Pecos, Van Horn
  • Southern New Mexico — Las Cruces, Deming, Alamogordo
  • Statewide on multi-site rollouts, by exception

Framing to finish, on our own crews

The same crew that sets the track hangs the board, runs the grid and closes the punch. Send project names and dates and these captions get specific — a named brand with a year outperforms a scope description every time.

Built for both sides of the table

Same standards in either seat. Which one we take depends on what your project needs, not on what we would rather sell you.

As prime contractor

We own the project

Single point of accountability from permit to punch list. We carry the trades, the schedule, the inspections and the owner communication. One contract, one team, nobody to point at but us.

  • Design-build — we carry the architect and engineer
  • Design-bid-build — you hold the drawings, we hold the risk
  • CMAR — open books, guaranteed maximum price
As subcontractor

We execute the scope

When a GC needs a trade partner who shows up prepared and does not become a problem, we integrate and execute. Field work performed to the standards national brands enforce.

  • Self-performed finishes — Divisions 3, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 10
  • Electrical under our own license, TECL #41703
  • Bid to your schedule, submitted on time or declined honestly

How a project runs with us

Five steps, no mystery. You know what you owe us and what we owe you at every one.

1

Project brief

You send scope, location, size, budget range and whatever drawings exist. Six minutes of your time. No sales call required to get a straight answer on fit.

Day 0 — 6 minutes
2

Fit call and site walk

Thirty minutes on the phone to confirm scope, constraints and schedule. We walk the site, photograph existing conditions and flag what the drawings missed.

Days 1–5
3

Scope, schedule and number

A written proposal: scope of work, priced line items, exclusions, clarifications, insurance and a working-day schedule. Nothing buried in a footnote.

3–5 business days
4

Contract and build

Subcontract or owner agreement, permits pulled, crews mobilized. Weekly progress report with photos, percent complete and any change in the critical path.

Weekly reporting
5

Send us the hard ones

The projects we do best are the ones other contractors hedge on:

  • A landlord date that will not move
  • An occupied store that cannot lose a trading day
  • A permit set with obvious gaps that needs a contractor who reads drawings
  • A budget that was set eighteen months ago and now has to work
  • A contractor who walked off and left you with a half-built space

Straight answers

Do you bid plan-and-spec work?

Yes. Send the invitation to bid, the bid due date and the drawing set. If we cannot hit the due date with a number we would stand behind, we tell you the same day instead of submitting a placeholder.

What size projects fit you?

Commercial interiors roughly $75K to $2M in contract value. Below that, we will usually point you to a specialty sub. Above it, ask — the answer depends on schedule and bonding.

Are you bonded?

Bonds are not carried in base pricing. If payment and performance bonds are a contract requirement, tell us before award and we will re-evaluate pricing with our surety.

Can you work nights and weekends?

Yes, and we price it honestly rather than absorbing it and discovering it later. Occupied-site phasing is a normal part of rebrand work for us.

How fast can you mobilize?

Five business days from notice to proceed on El Paso metro work, assuming permits are in hand. Out-of-town work depends on crew rotation — we will give you a date, not a hope.

Not ready for a proposal? Start with a number.

Most projects die in the gap between "we should renovate" and "we have a budget." Our calculator closes it: pick the space type, enter the square footage, check the site conditions, and get a planning range built from El Paso labor and material costs.

  • Eight space types, from warehouse to restaurant
  • Adjusts for occupied sites, night work and out-of-town travel
  • Shows where the money goes, block by block
  • Prints to PDF for your capital request
