Project Name: Bill Estes Chevrolet

Project Scope: BCI is proud to join forces with the team at Bill Estes Chevrolet and CSO Architects and commence work on expansion at the intersection of 96th Street and Michigan Road just north of I-465. Work will take place from September through late January.

During the design and preconstruction phase, the team at Bill Estes Chevrolet, CSO Architects, and Brandt Construction, Inc. were faced with a challenge. This was that Bill Estes Chevrolet needed to stay open, and continue to sell cars during construction. Brandt Construction worked with subcontractors to determine exactly when materials and manpower will be available in order to keep the sales offices open as long as possible until the Main Showroom is occupied, demolished, and put back together in the shortest time possible. Along with the Showroom renovation, the project will also consist of a sales office addition to the Showroom and Service addition to the existing Service area. These areas will be phased as follows:

Phase 1: Already in progress – begin demolition of the SE building façade and begin the new sales office expansion. Phase 1 will consist of footings, metal stud, drywall, metal panel façade, and new TPO roofing along with interior finishes after the roof is on the addition, phase 2 will commence.

Phase 2: Demolition and reconstruction of the upper level offices. Personnel currently occupying the 2nd floor will be relocated while BCI and team demo’s and refinishes the upper level.

Phase 3: The last phase and most critical includes the renovation and refinishing of the existing Showroom. This includes a new façade configuration of the curtain wall glass, removal of the old triangular branding design, and replacement with new GM stand alone entry element. Completely new finishes throughout, and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire sprinkler, and communication system upgrades.

Service Addition: During the above phases, Brandt Construction, Inc. will also be continuing on the Service Addition to the existing service area. This building consists of a structural steel framed building, masonry and metal façade, and MEP systems to accommodate the service tools and equipment housed inside.

Brandt Construction, Inc. is excited to be part of another project for this great client.


Project Status: Project is in final stages of construction.
