Retail

Retail comprises a large sub-set of the traditional building market for Providence. As malls become plazas, as the pressures from urban and suburban sprawl lead to the demand for retail outlets, there is an ever growing need for single story retail shopping in our country. In the world of retail construction, our opportunities to provide structural services include both new construction and renovations.

Providence has the capabilities to provide services to renovate existing facilities in need of an aesthetic upgrade or change of use and to execute full complex designs for new construction. The design of retail facilities provides unique challenges. They especially need to be designed with an eye toward cost effectiveness to allow the retailer’s investment models to work.

“Anytime we run into a situation on the jobsite that requires a structural engineer’s determination, I immediately call Providence Engineering. Their responsiveness and understanding of jobsite conditions is unmatched. It is nice to know that we have a true partner to help us through any challenges we encounter.”
