About this project type
Retail buildouts run on a different clock than office TI. Pre-open dates are fixed. Brand standards are documented. Finish levels are higher than typical TI. The crews who deliver to spec on time are the ones who've done brand rollouts before — they know the standards, the sequencing, and the punch.
Syndex narrows the list to verified Calgary retail-experienced crews. Manually reviewed, WCB on file.

See the tradeWhat to check first
Four things GCs verify before signing.
Pre-open date is sacred
Retail openings are marketing events. Crews who chronically slip don't get rehired. Confirm the sub has delivered to a hard pre-open date before.
Brand standards drive scope
Most retail rollouts have brand kits — exact paint, exact LVT, exact lighting. Crews need to read the spec and source accordingly.
Mall and centre coordination
Construction in operating malls means after-hours work, hoarding, dust barriers, freight-elevator scheduling. Confirm crew is mall-experienced.
Punch + warranty handover
Brand teams walk the space pre-open with a long punch list. A clean handover saves weeks of follow-up. Confirm the sub's punch close-out track record.
