Your Trusted Commercial General Contractor for Turnkey Projects

At KD Building Company, we take pride in delivering complete, start-to-finish construction solutions. This recent commercial expansion project is a perfect example of how we bring vision to life—from design and architectural planning to full construction execution.

As a leading Commercial General Contractor, our team handled every phase of this build with precision, efficiency, and craftsmanship.


Project Overview: Full-Service Commercial Construction

This project involved constructing a brand-new building addition onto an existing commercial facility. The goal was to expand usable space while maintaining structural integrity and matching the existing exterior.

From the initial concept to the final finish, KD Building Company managed:

  • Architectural design & planning (projekt + wykonanie)

  • Structural integration with existing building

  • Full construction scope


Phase 1: Site Preparation & Light Demolition

The project began with light demolition, preparing the area for expansion. Our team carefully removed necessary sections of the existing structure while ensuring minimal disruption to the facility.

This step is critical for any commercial renovation or addition—setting the foundation for safe and efficient construction.


Phase 2: Footings, Concrete Work & Block Foundation

Next, we completed all foundation work, including:

  • Excavation and footings

  • Flatwork (concrete slab)

  • Installation of CMU block walls

This stage created a strong, durable base to support the entire structure—essential for long-term performance in commercial construction.


Phase 3: Structural Framing & Steel Integration

One of the most technical parts of this project was integrating new framing with the existing structure.

Our team:

  • Installed full wood framing system

  • Welded a structural steel beam to existing steel columns

  • Ensured proper load distribution and stability

This combination of wood framing + steel reinforcement allowed us to safely expand the building while maintaining structural integrity.


Phase 4: Exterior Envelope – Roofing & Siding

After framing, we moved on to enclosing the structure:

  • Installed weather barrier (Tyvek wrap)

  • Completed metal siding installation

  • Added a metal roofing system

The finished exterior seamlessly matches the existing building while providing durability, weather resistance, and a clean commercial look.


Phase 5: Interior Structural Completion

Inside the building, we completed:

  • Structural framing

  • Clean, finished block walls

  • Open interior layout ready for client customization

The high ceiling and open space allow for flexible use—ideal for industrial, storage, or operational needs.


Attention to Detail: Welding & Elevated Work

This project also required precise elevated welding work, as shown in the process photos. Our team safely installed and secured steel components using professional-grade equipment and strict safety standards.
