Burbank permitting coordination
Commercial tenant improvements require building permits through the City of Burbank. We coordinate plan check, required documentation, and inspections so projects move efficiently from design to construction.
Media & creative workplace fit-outs
Burbank tenants often need flexible offices, meeting rooms, production-support spaces, and quality finishes that support creative teams and hybrid work patterns.
One license, multi-scope
CSLB #1083764 covers General Building (B) and Painting & Decorating (C-33), allowing framing, finishes, painting, and coordinated trades under one accountable contractor.
Lease- and operations-aware delivery
We align scope with landlord work letters, TI allowances, and move-in timelines, and phase work when projects sit adjacent to active studio or production environments.
Our Process
Our Burbank office build-out process is designed for media, creative, and commercial tenant improvement projects that need clear budgets, predictable schedules, and clean City of Burbank permitting.
Assessment & programming
On-site evaluation of the existing shell or second-generation space, landlord requirements, desired layout, MEP capacity, accessibility needs, and target occupancy date.
Scope, budget & design coordination
Written scope with planning-level cost ranges, finish options, and coordination with architects or designers as needed. Alignment with any TI allowance and lease work letter.
Permitting & compliance
City of Burbank plan check and building permits. We manage submittals, responses, and sequencing so construction can begin promptly once permits are issued.
Construction
Framing, drywall, ceilings, flooring, lighting, power and data, HVAC modifications, restrooms and break areas as scoped, painting and finishes. Quality control throughout.
Walkthrough & closeout
Final inspections, punch list completion, documentation as required, and handoff ready for occupancy and operations.

Landlords often provide a TI allowance expressed per square foot. Actual build-out costs frequently exceed the allowance depending on shell condition and finish level. We help clients understand realistic budgets relative to any allowance in the lease.

The Media District has specific zoning and overlay considerations. We confirm use, occupancy, and any overlay requirements early so design and permitting stay aligned with City standards.
