Construction services

We provide construction services to our clients through our sister company called Iris Construction Services, LLC. Iris Construction is a full-service commercial construction company. We specialize in mid-sized general contracting work for industrial, office, and retail facilities. Our mission is to provide our clients with a quality design, exceptional workmanship, and a finished project that is on time and on budget.

Design/build

By working with our design team at the beginning of a project, we can assure that budgets and timing restrictions are kept in mind throughout the entire construction process. The traditional approach for construction projects consists of the appointment of a designer on one side, and the appointment of a contractor on the other side. The Design Build procurement route changes the traditional sequence of work. It answers the client’s wishes for a single-point of responsibility in an attempt to reduce risks and overall costs. Our team encourages dialogue between its clients, architects and subcontractors. Among the many benefits of design-build are:

• Design and construction services under one contract
• Cost and schedule are controlled by a single entity
• Typically best method for fast-track projects
• High quality design delivered economically
• Subcontractor expertise can be obtained in design process

Iris Construction Services incorporates its Design Build expertise into many of its construction projects. While we are not an exclusive Design Build contractor, we can also cater our General Contracting skills to a project that may already be designed. The benefit of our expertise allows us to constantly communicate with the architect of challenges that may come up in the field that require a creative approach or solution.

Market ready asset services

To counteract the competitive real estate environment, our team can help our clients to identify and correct vacant property deficiencies to allow the highest chance possible for a new tenant or owner. It is sometimes difficult for property owners to justify spending money on a vacant property. Iris Construction Services can help the owner to identify areas of concern and focus on the “hot buttons” of prospective tenants or owners. Many owners achieve a three or four times return on their investment with a higher lease or sales price. In addition, our track record has shown that Market Ready Services performed on a building increase its chances of getting leased or purchased exponentially. The following items are common services performed:

• Debris removal
• Landscaping, curb appeal improvements
• Office and warehouse painting and flooring upgrades
• High efficiency lighting installed in office and warehouse utilizing ComEd rebates
• Demolition of office or unnecessary structures
• Roof patching or replacement
• Plumbing fixture or bathroom panel replacements
• Cleaning services
