Restaurant conversions, tenant finish-outs, and commercial restrooms, with the same finish-level work scaled up for your business.
Alongside the homes we remodel, MLA Contracting takes on commercial work in Corpus Christi. Juan Martinez has run the crew since 2013, and over the years that has meant restaurant buildouts, converting one restaurant brand into another, tenant finish-outs, and commercial restrooms built to code and to hold up under daily traffic.
A commercial job runs on more than good carpentry. It runs on a schedule you can plan around, permits pulled the right way, and a crew that keeps the site clean while you are trying to run a business. That is how we approach every buildout, and it is why owners bring us back for the next location.
New restaurant spaces and buildouts taken from bare shell to a room ready for customers, with the finish carpentry done right.
Converting one restaurant concept into another, reworking the layout, the finishes, and the flow to fit the new brand.
Turning a leased shell into a working space for your business, framed, finished, and built to the plans you need to open.
Tile, fixtures, and ADA-minded restrooms built to code and finished to hold up under steady public use.
MLA is a licensed contractor that pulls city permits regularly, so the paperwork side of your project is covered.
We build the timeline around your operations and your opening date, and keep the site clean while the work is underway.
We meet you at the space, walk the plans, and talk through what it takes to open. Estimates are done in person, seven days a week from 8am to 7pm.
You get a clear scope and price in writing, we line up the permits your project needs, and we build a schedule around your hours and opening date.
One local crew does the work start to finish, keeps the site clean, and works around your operations where the schedule allows.
We walk the finished space with you, make sure it is ready for inspection and for customers, and make it right before we hand it over.
Commercial work is too different from job to job to put a single number on. A restroom, a tenant finish-out, and a full restaurant conversion are worlds apart. So we scope your project in person and give you a firm price before any work begins, and here is what shapes it.
These are actual MLA Contracting commercial projects in the Corpus Christi area, including finished restrooms and a buildout in progress. No stock images.

“Very professional and competent… I did not have to constantly monitor the status of my projects… you wouldn’t even know a repair had been made.”
“I am extremely happy with the work done by MLA Contracting. They did an excellent job and I will be working with them again.”
We handle restaurant buildouts, conversions from one restaurant brand to another, tenant finish-outs, and commercial restrooms. If you are turning a space into something new, bring us out and we will tell you honestly what it takes to get it open.
Yes, and we plan for it from the start. We build the schedule around your operations and your opening date, and where the work allows we phase it so you can keep running while the project moves forward.
Yes. MLA is a licensed contractor that pulls city permits regularly, so we line up the permits your project needs and handle that side of the process for you.
We do. Commercial restrooms are some of our steadiest work, built with the tile, fixtures, and ADA-minded layout to meet code and hold up under steady public use.
Commercial projects vary too much to quote sight unseen, since a single restroom and a full restaurant conversion are worlds apart. We scope your project in person and give you a firm price in writing before any work begins.
