The First Impression Should Match the Value Inside

When a building looks tired, dated, or under-maintained, it sends a message—whether you want it to or not. In commercial real estate, curb appeal isn’t just cosmetic. It shapes how tenants feel, how customers behave, and how confidently you can lease, sell, or operate the space.

That’s where a strategic exterior renovation comes in.

Coordinated, Cost-Informed Design

Exterior work is notoriously difficult to price after the fact. Hidden conditions, overlapping scopes, and disconnected design decisions can lead to blown budgets and frustrating change orders.

That’s why we bring in the right consultants and trade partners early—during schematic design and pricing—not after permits are issued. With LCM, your drawings, budget, and schedule are aligned before construction begins, so you can move ahead with confidence.

We also handle all permitting, compliance, and envelope detailing—especially important for buildings that require energy upgrades or code alignment.

Repositioning Through Design

Our clients often come to us when they’re trying to reposition a property for a new phase of life—whether it’s to attract a different class of tenant, extend the life of an aging asset, or improve lease-up in a competitive market.

From dated EIFS systems and failing stucco to weathered signage, entrances, and façades, exterior upgrades can have an outsized impact when they’re part of a larger strategy.

Our role is to help you think beyond surface-level improvements—guiding you toward changes that drive ROI, reduce long-term maintenance, and elevate the perception of your property.

Impact Without the Chaos

Unlike interior work, exterior renovations often occur while tenants are still operating inside. That means our job isn’t just to build well—it’s to build without unnecessary disruption.

We coordinate phasing, access, signage, and safety to keep businesses running while work takes place. Whether it’s a single façade refresh or a complete reimagining of your building envelope, we make sure the process runs as smoothly as the final product looks.

Ready to move your project forward?

Starting is exciting. Staying aligned is where most projects go sideways. At LCM, we’ve shaped a process that protects the strategy—not just the schedule.

Because it’s not just about what gets built—it’s about whether it performs the way you need it to.
