Common questions about hiring a commercial general contractor in Greenville and the Upstate.
What should I look for in a commercial general contractor in Greenville, SC?
A qualified commercial general contractor in South Carolina holds an active license verifiable through the SC Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation at verify.llronline.com, carries current general liability and workers' compensation coverage, and can show completed projects in the local permitting jurisdiction. Beyond credentials, the questions worth asking are whether the contractor self-performs or subcontracts the trades, which contract structure they work under, how change orders are priced and approved, and whether they have run projects through the specific building department that will review yours. Solidus Construction, LLC is a licensed general contractor based in Greenville, South Carolina, holding an unlimited Group 5 license, CLG.127646, and is bonded and insured.
Is Solidus Construction a licensed and insured general contractor?
Yes. Solidus Construction, LLC is a licensed South Carolina general contractor holding an unlimited Group 5 building license, number CLG.127646, obtained through the NASCLA route. The license can be verified at verify.llronline.com. Solidus Construction carries general liability and workers' compensation coverage and a surety bond, and serves commercial and residential clients throughout Upstate South Carolina.
Who does restaurant and retail build-outs in Greenville and the Upstate?
We do restaurant, retail, and office build-outs across Greenville, Greer, Spartanburg, Anderson, Easley, Simpsonville, Mauldin, Travelers Rest, and the wider Upstate. Restaurant work carries a permitting layer beyond the standard building permit — health department plan review, grease interceptor sizing, and hood and suppression system approval — and each runs on its own timeline and can hold up a certificate of occupancy.
What kinds of commercial projects does Solidus Construction take on?
Tenant build-outs and renovations of existing commercial buildings: restaurant, retail and office work across Greenville and the Upstate. The license is Unlimited Building, Group 5, so the size of the contract is not the limiting factor. Solidus does not provide architectural or design services, working instead from drawings produced by the owner's architect or designer.
How does Solidus Construction price and contract work?
We work under two contract structures: cost-plus with a guaranteed maximum price, and fixed price. Cost-plus with a GMP suits projects where the scope is still moving or existing conditions are unknown, since you see actual costs and the guaranteed maximum caps your exposure. Fixed price suits a fully drawn, fully specified scope. We will tell you which one fits your project and why, and change orders are priced and approved in writing before the work happens.
