Who does restaurant construction and build out in Austin?
Bailey & Bear is an Austin restaurant general contractor specializing in restaurant construction and tenant build-outs — kitchens, hoods and grease systems, bars, dining rooms, restrooms, and health-department-ready finishes. We completed the commercial renovation of Academia (Austin) and bring that same commercial standard to every restaurant build out.
What do restaurant construction services include?
Full restaurant construction covers kitchen infrastructure (gas, hood, fire suppression, floor drains), grease trap, walk-in coolers, bar build, ADA restrooms, storefront, and coordination with the Health Department and City of Austin through required inspections.
Are you a restaurant builder contractor for new and existing spaces?
Both. As a restaurant general contractor we take raw shell spaces to opening day and also renovate existing restaurants — re-concepts, kitchen expansions, and code upgrades — with minimal downtime.
Do you offer hospitality and hotel tenant buildout services in Austin?
Yes — Bailey & Bear provides hospitality and hotel tenant buildout services across Austin: lobbies, guest-facing amenity spaces, restaurant and bar concessions inside hotels, and back-of-house. We coordinate around live operations so occupied properties keep running.
What makes a good commercial renovation specialist?
A commercial renovation specialist protects your schedule and your operations — accurate scoping up front, City of Austin permit management, phased work so you stay open, and finish coordination through required inspections. That is how Bailey & Bear runs every commercial renovation.

Buildout types
Questions Austin owners ask
What is the difference between a commercial build out and a commercial finish out?
A commercial build out takes a shell or vacated space to a usable business space. When that work is tied to a lease, work letter, or TI allowance, it is a tenant finish-out; see our Austin tenant finish-out and tenant improvement contractor page for allowances, costs, and schedules.
Which buildout types does Bailey & Bear take in Austin?
Office, retail, restaurant, warehouse, gym, salon, veterinary clinic, brewery, and coffee shop buildouts. Start with our Austin office buildout guide or our Austin retail buildout guide for those uses.
Do you renovate commercial spaces that are already open?
Yes. Work inside an occupied space is planned as a phased renovation; see our Austin commercial renovation services for phasing, cost ranges, and timelines.
What should I send to start a commercial buildout?
Share the address, current condition, desired use, timeline, drawings or punch list if available, and any landlord or handoff requirements.
