Demolition, structure, mechanical, finishes, exteriors and masonry — all self-performed by SCM Development. One scope of work, one schedule, one team to hold accountable.
01
Interior, structural and selective demolition for commercial and residential projects. We sequence the teardown so the next trade can move in clean.
02
Light-gauge metal stud framing for commercial walls, soffits and fire-rated assemblies. Built tight to plan and ready for mechanical.
03
Residential and light commercial wood framing — walls, floors, roofs and load-bearing assemblies built to code, plumb and square.
04
Foundations, footings, slabs and flatwork — placed, finished and cured to spec for commercial and residential builds.
05
Brick, block, stone, tuckpointing and chimney work. Built plumb, level and weather-tight — by people who care what the joint looks like.
06
On-site structural and ornamental welding — railings, frames, repairs, custom fabrication and steel modifications.
07
Rough-in to finish: supply, waste and venting systems plus fixture installations — pressure-tested and code-compliant.
08
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning design coordination, installation and tie-in. Comfort and code from day one.
09
Service entrance to outlets: panels, branch wiring, lighting, low-voltage and data — clean, labeled and inspected.
10
Fire suppression design coordination and install for commercial occupancies — engineered, inspected and certified.
11
Batt, blown and rigid insulation systems for thermal, acoustic and fire-rated assemblies — installed to spec.
12
Hanging, fire-rated and moisture-resistant assemblies — set flat, fastened and ready for tape and finish.
13
Level 4 and Level 5 finishes — flat, true and ready for premium paint, wallcoverings or critical lighting conditions.
14
Interior and exterior painting — prep, prime and finish coats that hold up under commercial use and Chicago weather.
15
Hardwood, LVP, tile, carpet and commercial-grade systems — installed level, tight and laid out to plan.
16
Weather-tight exteriors, fascia, soffit and seamless gutter systems — installed for the Midwest climate, not just a warm day.
We talk through your project — scope, timeline, budget and the outcome you actually need. No pressure, no upsell.
We visit the site, take measurements, photograph existing conditions and flag anything that affects buildability or cost.
You get a clear, line-item proposal — scope, materials, schedule and a locked-in number. No hidden fees.
We finalize plans, submit to the AHJ and pull every permit needed. Inspections are scheduled before work begins.
Our crews sequence the trades and manage the schedule. One project manager, one phone number, daily progress.
Final walk-through, every detail signed off, inspections cleared and the building handed over clean.
Whether you need a single service or full general construction, SCM Development can take it on — licensed, insured and on schedule.
