Commercial


Commercial construction is a very specialized field and not many contractors can produce the results needed in this environment. Not only the building codes applied are different, each tenant needs are unique and oftentimes the deadlines are set in stone. The choice of contractor for these projects is critical. Smarter Remodeling has built many commercial projects from small offices to large retail stores and it has the right combination of expertise and talent to make your project a complete success.


Design, planning and permitting

We can provide you with design and planning services to make your project a complete success from beginning to end. Our team of architects will provide advise on traffic flow, merchandise display, colors, code compliance and much more while our team of permit expediters will get your project approved at the City in no time. We specialize in commercial construction and have been doing it continuously for over 17 years even through the worst recession this country has suffered. This speaks of our ability to adapt and provide the services our customers needs all the time.

Drywall and drywall textures

We have one of the best drywall hanging and finishing teams in Jacksonville, With over 20 years of experience in the trade, our team can provide hanging and finishing services second to none. From simple patching to Level 5 finish we can do it all.

Light gauge metal framing and specialty framing

Backed by more than 12 years of experience in metal framing and drywall, we can build architectural ceilings, archways, columns, nooks, domes, suspended hard ceiling, floating ceilings, curved walls and many other custom details for your home or office. With our experience using light and heavy gauge metal, we can build anything you can think of and give you that touch of elegance and distinction that will separate your project from the rest.

Floor coverings

Each project requires a different approach to floor coverings. Many details are normally overseen but our qualified experts will make sure your floor meets all your design and functionality criteria while maintaining your budget. We can provide concrete staining, epoxy floors, hardwood floor, laminate flooring, LVT, VCT, ceramic tiles, porcelain, granite, marble and many other floor coverings.

Fire rated walls

Fire rated walls are required in almost every commercial project and the requirements varies from one to another. While the most common rated walls are one and 2 hours, there are many variants and different UL designs. From simple single layer construction to multi layers with specific fire retardants. Hiring the right contractor from the beginning will save you money and time while ensuring your project gets completed on time and budget.

Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing

These trades are by far the most complex in any project. It’s extremely important your contractor has the right connections to these qualified trades. Our M.E.P trades are one of the best in the City and very possibly in the state. We have worked with them over many years and build the kind of relationship and trust that only time and work ethic can develop. We use our tradespeople over and over in all of our projects, this translates in better prices and better service for our customers.


Experience and Reliability

We have the experience and expertise necessary to let you know what to expect from a home remodel. Reliable service with excellent craftsmanship is what we provide from start to finish when we work on your remodeling project. Let us help you complete the planning process and get you on your way to the home you’ve always wanted.

Outstanding Room Addition: Smarter Remodeling Delivers Quality, Professionalism, and Excellent Customer Service

My wife and I couldn’t be more happier with job Fabian and his Smarter Remodeling team done. Smarter Rem did our room addition, good price, quality workmanship, prompt and courteous workers. Fabian the project manager, oversaw the entire job and always kept me informed of the progress. Recently had some issue with our exterior door on the room addition, so I contacted them the promptly return my call and dispatched Jeff to over see and ensure all our issues was address. Jeff and Smarter Remodeling ensure that every issue met the boss (my Wife) approval. I would recommend Smarter Remodeling to anyone looking for a fair and professional contractor.

Exceptional Kitchen Remodel: Smarter Remodeling Delivers Professionalism, Quality, and Customer Satisfaction

If you are searching for a company who will work very hard to give you that perfect kitchen, Smarter Remodeling is it. We contracted them to gut and remodel our kitchen in October 2016. A meeting with Joe Macik at their office helped us visualize the layout and gave us ideas for the finishing touches. Joe was our contractor and he did an outstanding job designing the kitchen and managing each phase of the job seamlessly. The kitchen was started November 7th and by Thanksgiving we had our first meal in our beautiful new kitchen. From the owner Fabian to Joe, Julio, Ernesto and Ron, everyone was professional and worked very hard to give us our dream kitchen. After getting several estimates, we decided to hire Smarter Remodeling because we thought their pricing was reasonable and we felt they did quality work. We did have a few minor problems(as there is in any renovation) but each one was resolved to my satisfaction in a timely manner. I waited two months to post my review because I wanted to use the kitchen and see if any problems developed. We discovered a drawer in the pantry was coming apart on one corner and a door needed readjustment. One quick call and three days later Joe came and fixed everything. So they stand behind their work too. Thank You Everyone at Smarter Remodeling for our gorgeous new kitchen!

High-Tech, High-Touch: Smarter Remodeling Delivers 3D Visualization and Exceptional Results

Smarter Remodeling is well-named. I am an IT consultant so I really like the way they use technology to show you their design for you in 3D. It’s great that the finished result also looks like they showed you. I even followed the project’s progress online every step of the way. But the human touch comes in with the personal attention that is paid to your project. Fabian and his team of specialists take care of everything. As a small businessman, I go out of my way to recommend Smarter Remodeling to any of my clients who are looking for a remodeler. The price is reasonable for such great results.

Honest, Professional, and Comprehensive: Smarter Remodeling Delivers Outstanding Results

Smarter Remodeling does the job the right way! They know what is required for the project and include everything needed in the estimate. They do not leave things out of an estimate that are needed for the project just to give you a smaller estimate…only to hit you up later with change orders that jack up the price. They are knowledgeable, honest and professional…and they can help you achieve the lasting impression you desire from your remodeling project.

Top-Tier Service and Expertise: Fabian Videla and Smarter Remodeling Exceed Expectations in Every Project

Fabian Videla and the Smarter Remodeling team are the most responsive, honest and comprehensive remodeling contractors I have ever had the pleasure of working with or recommending. Whether it is for windows, kitchen remodeling, electrical and AC, or room additions, I have always found them to be attentive and ready to explain where they are at in the process, or make a better suggestion, whenever I had a question. I also have used them several times on projects at the beaches and in the Historic District with my clients and friends, many of whom will hire them for one project, then call them later to do another remodel or upgrade. An additional bonus is the high level of technical expertise used in collaborating with homeowners to assist in visualizing the final design and aesthetics as well as the importance Fabian places upon job cost accuracy from day one. Their patient and relaxed approach from inception through the final punch list is a huge plus in today’s fast paced contracting environment, and provides a degree of comfort and confidence that makes them a clear and trusted partner.

Outstanding Master Bathroom Remodel: Professional, Communicative, and Exceeding Expectations

Transformative Experience with Smarter Remodeling: Professional, Family-Oriented, and Exceeding Expectations

Smarter Remodeling changed our entire life for the better with our recent remodeling project. They are a family-run business and they make it a point to make you feel like family. Fabian will be the first to tell you that things might go wrong – especially on large projects, where there are dozens of subcontractors – but they will always work through it. Every single subcontractor that came to our home was polite and hard-working. All along in my project, everybody stayed professional and easy to work with. The end result is better than we had hoped for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Smarter Remodeling!

Swift, Professional, and High-Quality: Smarter Remodeling Exceeds Expectations for In-Law Suite Construction

We tried working with a different company first to build a small in-law suite. The first company was very slow, so we tried Smarter Remodeling. They were very responsive and professionally met all our expectations through the end. They kept the whole process running smoothly and we are very happy with the final build.
