Exterior Commercial Work

Reliable, Hands-On Exterior Construction—Built to Withstand and Impress

At Hill Construction, we know the exterior of your commercial property is more than a facade—it’s your first impression, your protection against the elements, and your investment in long-term durability. That’s why we bring hands-on management, skilled labor, and quality materials to every square foot of exterior commercial work. From foundations to finishes, we tackle every element with care and precision.

Whether you’re upgrading a retail storefront, restoring a historic façade, or building an entirely new commercial structure, our team ensures every phase of your exterior project is handled with confidence. Led by Terence and Travis Hill, we focus on aligning construction goals with curb appeal, performance, and code compliance to deliver results that last and look exceptional.

Complete Exterior Solutions from the Ground Up

Commercial exterior work demands a coordinated blend of structure, utility, and aesthetics. Hill Construction brings deep experience in every category of exterior construction, allowing us to manage builds that are both beautiful and functional. Our team uses time-tested techniques and modern building practices to ensure performance across all weather and operational conditions.

We begin with detailed planning, including site analysis, drainage review, and structural assessment. This sets the stage for flawless execution throughout grading, hardscaping, envelope construction, and finish detailing. We account for wind resistance, thermal efficiency, waterproofing, and pedestrian safety to ensure that the exterior performs as well as it looks.

Our field teams coordinate closely with suppliers, trades, and inspectors to maintain timelines and uphold local codes. Throughout the process, we keep you informed with milestone updates, budget tracking, and clear documentation. From storefronts to side walls, our goal is to elevate your business through expertly crafted exterior work.

We approach each project as a long-term investment—choosing materials, techniques, and timelines that maximize ROI while minimizing disruption.

Hands-On Control of Every Exterior Element

Our exterior commercial work is managed entirely in-house, giving you direct access to decision-makers and responsive site management. We take control of project logistics, vendor coordination, permitting, and jobsite safety so that your build progresses smoothly.

Every project receives custom planning based on your building type, location, customer flow, and local conditions. Whether you’re working within a tight downtown footprint or a spacious industrial park, our crews adapt and optimize.

We manage full-envelope systems, including framing, insulation, cladding, waterproofing, and coatings. Our quality control program ensures that flashing, fasteners, and sealants are installed to spec and fully weatherproofed. We also prepare for landscaping tie-ins, lighting placements, and signage visibility.

Hill Construction doesn’t just install materials—we coordinate them holistically to ensure your exterior meets every functional and visual requirement.

Trusted for Complex Exterior Renovations

Renovating the outside of a commercial building brings unique challenges. At Hill Construction, we specialize in revitalizing aging exteriors without interrupting business operations or cutting corners on quality.

We begin with a full exterior assessment, documenting structural conditions, existing finishes, and opportunities for improvement. Our team works with engineers and architects to create feasible plans that upgrade performance while preserving character where needed.

We are skilled in adaptive reuse, energy retrofits, and exterior modernizations. Our approach minimizes operational downtime, protects customers and employees, and ensures clear access during construction.

Throughout the renovation, we keep job sites clean and compliant, using barriers, scaffolding, and signage to direct traffic and maintain safety. We also match or improve upon existing materials and finishes for a seamless upgrade.

From brick restoration and stucco repair to storefront rebranding, we turn outdated or damaged exteriors into assets that boost business.

Louisiana Weather? No Problem.

Our team understands the climate-specific demands of exterior commercial work in Louisiana. From hurricane preparedness to flood-resilient materials, we build with the region’s unique environmental challenges in mind.

We use weather-rated cladding systems, sealants built for high humidity, and structural anchoring designed to withstand Gulf Coast winds. Our drainage planning includes grading, runoff control, and water redirection to prevent pooling and erosion.

We also ensure that building envelopes are thermally efficient, code-compliant, and energy-saving. That includes insulation upgrades, radiant barriers, and cool roof coatings where applicable.

Terence and Travis Hill work closely with local inspectors and utility companies to fast-track approvals and reduce delays related to weather events or municipal scheduling.

Hill Construction delivers exteriors that hold up in harsh conditions without compromising on looks or accessibility.

Proactive Communication, No Surprises

Communication is key to every successful build. That’s why Hill Construction maintains a steady stream of updates, meetings, and reporting throughout your exterior commercial project. From change orders to inspections, you’ll always know where things stand.

We hold kickoff meetings to define project priorities, timelines, and aesthetic targets. During the build, we provide weekly updates, digital photo logs, and milestone reviews to track visible progress and behind-the-scenes checks.

We manage subcontractors, coordinate vendor deliveries, and resolve on-site issues before they impact the timeline. Our field teams remain accessible for walkthroughs, decisions, and final punch list items.

Whether you’re local or remote, our commitment is the same: total transparency and quick problem-solving to keep your project on time and on budget.

Specialized Tools and Techniques for Exterior Precision

At Hill Construction, we rely on both traditional craftsmanship and advanced tools to perfect every exterior detail. Our crews are trained in safety, alignment, and weatherproofing techniques that extend the life and appearance of your building.

We employ moisture meters, laser layout tools, and thermal cameras to identify issues early and verify installation quality. We also use scaffolding systems, mobile lifts, and fall protection to work safely and efficiently at any elevation.

Fastener tracking, seam sealing, and material-specific tools (for metal, fiber cement, EIFS, and masonry) allow our teams to meet manufacturer requirements and warranty expectations.

Every element—from flashing to finish coat—is completed to spec and thoroughly inspected before moving on.

Our methodical approach to installation and finish ensures consistency, code compliance, and aesthetic value across the full envelope.

Full-Scope Exterior Services

Our commercial exterior work isn’t limited to a few select services—we cover it all. With comprehensive planning and experienced execution, Hill Construction is equipped to handle the full range of exterior components your building depends on.

Before we install a single panel or pour a square foot of concrete, we evaluate the interaction between all exterior systems—ensuring integration and code compliance across each element. From weatherproofing to walkways, we do more than install—we engineer exteriors to perform.
