Reasons to Choose

Here’s why many retailers choose us:
Professionalism
We’ve been in business for nearly three decades, helping build retail companies from the ground up and renovating them when needed. Our expert team prioritizes communication. We’re a professional team that puts our clients’ needs first–always. If you have questions throughout the design or building process, you can feel comfortable coming to us at any time.
Timeliness
At Norwest Contractors, helping our retail customers stay on time is a top objective. We’ll work with your team from day one, asking the right questions and laying out a plan to prevent delays in your project. We work fast, and we’re efficient.
DesignLab™
Whatever type of retail location you’re designing, it’s not complete without the finishing, fixtures, and flooring. Instead of guessing what would look good, know what will. The Norwest Contractors DesignLab™ is the West Coast’s only commercial showroom of its kind, where you can see all the design elements up close to find out which ones would be a great fit for your retail space.
Our Norwest Design-to-Budget™ Process
Building out or renovating a store or other retail location can add up fast when you factor in everything, from enough display space to room for people to shop. A good retail construction contractor takes everything into consideration, from the right lighting to the design of each and every shelf in your location.
At Norwest Contractors, we follow a Design-to-Budget™ methodology that helps you manage the costs associated with building your location. After performing a Know Your Building evaluation to gauge the location’s current condition and factors that may affect the cost, we’ll put together a budget that allows you to check items off and add anything you want to make this space comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, and functionally designed.
The best part about our Design-to-Budget™ process is that you essentially make your own budget. We’ll show you how the retail spot’s condition matches up with your budget and design goals. Then, we’ll figure out the difference between your needs vs. wants to help you design a top-notch retail space that your customers love (and so do your employees).
