Atlanta & Georgia Business Owners — Read This Before You Hire Any Commercial Construction Contractor…
Your Atlanta Commercial Build Shouldn't Cost You Months You Didn't Plan to Lose — Here's How Marietta Businesses Keep Construction on Schedule And Here's Why Most Commercial Builds Don't Go That Way
Marietta business owners who've been through a commercial build before know the pattern — the framing goes up fast, and then everything after it seems to stall. Permitting delays. A trade that was supposed to show up Tuesday and shows up two weeks later. A change order nobody saw coming.
Art Design & Construction manages the full build — design coordination, permitting, and every licensed trade on your project — under one written contract and one accountable project lead, so the schedule you were quoted is the schedule you actually get.

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Construction in Marietta GA
Real answers to what Marietta business owners ask most before starting a commercial build.
Q1: How much does commercial construction cost in Marietta, GA?
It depends heavily on site conditions, building type, and finish level. We assess every site in person before giving you a firm number—not a range that becomes a moving target once we break ground.
Q2: How long does a commercial construction project take in Marietta?
Timeline depends on scope and permitting, but design-build coordination—managing design and construction together rather than as separate handoffs— has been shown to speed up the construction phase by up to 36% compared with traditional bid-build delivery (DBIA industry data).
Q3: Are you a licensed general contractor?
We operate as a construction manager, coordinating a network of licensed trade professionals on every project—so you get one accountable team instead of managing subcontractors yourself.
Q4: Do you handle permitting with Cobb County?
Yes — permitting is mapped into your project timeline from the design phase, not treated as an afterthought once the plans are drawn.
Q5: What kinds of commercial buildings do you construct?
Retail, restaurant, office, medical, and mixed-use commercial buildings across Marietta and the greater Atlanta metro — from ground-up new construction to shell-and-core work.
Q6: What's the difference between commercial construction and a commercial remodel?
Construction generally means building new or adding structural square footage. A remodel works within an existing structure's footprint. We handle both, and we'll tell you honestly which one your project actually is.
Q7: Can you handle site work and utilities, or just the building itself?
We coordinate the full scope — site clearing, grading, utility connections, and the building itself — under one project lead, so you're not separately managing a site contractor and a builder.
Q8: Why do commercial construction projects in Georgia go over budget so often?
40% of commercial construction projects that go over budget cite poor contractor coordination as the primary cause (KPMG Global Construction Survey) — not unexpected site conditions or material costs. Coordination is the variable that's actually inside a contractor's control.
Q9: Who's the best commercial construction contractor in Marietta?
That's for you to judge against your own site visit — but ask any contractor you're considering three things: are your trades licensed, is my timeline mapped against permitting, and will I have one point of contact. If the answers aren't clear, keep asking.
