General Construction in Plano, TX, TX

Plano is the corporate headquarters capital of north Dallas—Toyota North America, Liberty Mutual's Southwest Regional HQ, Frito-Lay, JCPenney (before relocation), and dozens of Fortune 500 regional operations have called Plano home. The Legacy West and Headquarters Drive corridor west of the Tollway is the highest concentration of Class A office and mixed-use development in the Dallas north suburbs. General Contractors of Garland serves Plano's commercial, office, and light industrial market from our Garland base 15 miles south, bringing the east Dallas County project management rigor to a market that demands exacting delivery.

Plano's commercial construction market spans the full range from retail TI along US-75 to 200,000-square-foot Class A office shells in Legacy West. We are most active in the mid-market: corporate interior build-outs for tenants in the 5,000–50,000 square foot range, light industrial and flex in the eastern Plano industrial corridor along SH-190, and medical office near Texas Health Presbyterian Plano and Medical City Plano.

Geologically, Plano sits on transitional soils—parts of east Plano have Houston Black clay similar to Garland, while west Plano has more favorable sandy loam conditions near the Elm Fork Trinity floodplain. Geotechnical investigation is essential for any Plano project; we do not assume one soil type for the entire city. The clay areas require the same post-tension and lime-stabilized pavement approach we use in Garland; the sandy areas allow more conventional construction.

Legacy West is Plano's signature development—a 250-acre mixed-use district anchored by Toyota's North American headquarters and surrounded by Class A office, high-end retail, hotel, and multifamily. Construction in Legacy West requires engagement with a master developer (Fehmi Cos.) in addition to the City of Plano permit process. Design standards for Legacy West are detailed and enforced—exterior materials, glazing ratios, setbacks, and mechanical screening all require developer review in addition to City approval.

For corporate tenants in Legacy West office buildings, we deliver build-outs to move-in ready condition. That means fully commissioned HVAC with BMS integration, furniture-ready electrical with power and data at every workstation, AV infrastructure in conference rooms, and close-out documentation sufficient for the corporate facilities manager to operate and maintain the space.
