What Are Tenant Improvements?
Tenant Improvements (TIs), also known as leasehold improvements, refer to any changes made to a commercial rental space to customize it for the specific needs of the tenant. These can include layout changes, flooring, lighting, HVAC modifications, wall partitions, painting, or even complete interior rebuilds.
At Harris & Sons, we work closely with both landlords and tenants to design and execute renovations that enhance the value of the space and improve usability, branding, and compliance.
