A $150 on-site consultation locks in scope for smaller commercial projects and is credited toward the project when you hire Panthera.
- 03
Plans & permits
Plan development, engineering, and permits are coordinated so the project starts on legal, buildable ground.
- 04
Construction
Buildout, MEP, and finishes on a written schedule and phased around business operations where needed.
- 05
Close-out
Final inspections, punch list, and documentation handoff.
Consultation & pricing
Every project starts with a complimentary initial project review by phone, video, or shared photos so we can understand your scope, timeline, location, and goals and recommend the best next step. For projects requiring an on-site assessment, detailed measurements, or professional planning, we offer a $150 private on-site consultation — fully credited toward your project when you move forward with Panthera Construction.
