STAPLETON RETAIL SHELL

Pre-open commercial • 7 days • Stapleton, Denver

Project overview

Open-Ready in Seven Days

A national retailer signed a Stapleton lease with a hard grand-opening date — and a gray concrete shell that needed to become on-brand, welcoming retail space in a single week.

The challenge

Flooring installers, fixture crews, and electricians all shared the same 7-day window. Paint had to go first in every zone — and be dry enough to build on within hours.

Our approach

Two crews leapfrogged in phases: prep and prime ahead of the flooring team, finish coats overnight, and brand-color accent walls masked around installed fixtures. Daily 6am coordination calls kept every trade moving.

Result

Grand opening on schedule — now the retailer's go-to painter for Colorado buildouts.
