You need a new office, a shop, a store, or a warehouse. What you do not need is a contractor who disappears for two weeks and calls you when there is a problem.
NTEX Construction builds commercial space in Victoria and across Victoria County. Trust this faith owned and operated business. You get an owner on the phone, not a project coordinator three states away. Call (361) 645-4000 and tell us what you are building.
Retail on the ground floor, something else above it.
Not sure which bucket you fall in? Call. We will tell you straight if it is our kind of job.
That is the part most contractors skip over.
A store shut down for a remodel is a store making nothing. A clinic that loses three exam rooms loses three rooms of patients. We build the schedule around that.
Sometimes that means working in phases so half your floor stays open. Sometimes it means nights and weekends. Sometimes it means we stage the whole job so the loud, dusty part happens in one short window instead of dragging out for a month.
We talk about this in the first meeting, before anyone draws anything. Tell us what you cannot afford to shut down and we build around it.
Commercial plans go to Development Services at 700 Main Center. Victoria enforces the current international codes with its own amendments on top.
Parking counts, setbacks, drainage, landscaping, where the driveway goes. This gets settled before the building does.
Exits, alarms, sprinklers, and access for a truck. The fire marshal signs off.
Here is the one that catches owners by surprise. Any commercial project in Texas with a construction cost of $50,000 or more has to be registered with the state and reviewed by a Registered Accessibility Specialist. There is an inspection at the end too. Miss it and you are fixing finished work.
Victoria sits on heavy Gulf Coast clay. Some of it runs 45 to 60 percent clay.
In a dry summer that ground splits open. Cracks run two or three inches wide and go down several feet. Then it rains and the clay swells back up. Every single year.
A warehouse slab has more surface sitting on that ground than a house does. Get it wrong and you get cracks in the floor, doors that stick, and racking that no longer sits level.
We start with the dirt. Soil work first, slab engineered for what that soil actually does, and grading so water leaves the site instead of pooling at your foundation.
A lot of Victoria County work is metal. Shops, storage, equipment barns, small warehouses.
We do the whole thing. Slab, anchor bolts, erection, doors, insulation, and the interior if you want office space inside it.
The slab is the part people underestimate. A metal building is only as square as the concrete under it.
