Consultation & Planning
We start by understanding your goals.We provide clear budgets, timelines, and design recommendations up front.

We manage the paperwork and coordinate with the Alachua County Planning Commission and, when applicable, the Micanopy Planning & Historic Preservation Board for projects in historic zones.
Construction & Coordination
Our MBA-led team offers precise scheduling and transparent communication. We oversee subcontractors and specialists, from steel and concrete crews to finish carpenters, with a focus on safety, efficiency, and minimizing business downtime.
Inspections & Compliance
Alachua County conducts tens of thousands of inspections each year, so preparation is key. We make sure every stage passes the Florida Building Code (2023 edition) and local zoning standards, reducing costly rework.

Once construction is complete, we walk through the site with you to confirm every detail. If something’s not right, we fix it. Beyond completion, we remain available for future renovations, expansions, or ongoing facility improvements.
Commercial construction in Alachua County is being reshaped by industry growth, landmark projects, and evolving zoning requirements.
The timeline for a commercial construction project in Florida depends on the size, intricacy, and type of building. On average, most projects take six months to two years from planning to completion. Smaller remodels and tenant build-outs may move faster, while ground-up construction or industrial facilities often require longer schedules.
Large-scale or industrial projects: Warehouses, medical facilities, or manufacturing sites can extend to eighteen months to two years due to permitting, infrastructure, and safety requirements.
Your project begins with a meeting between you and our team, where we will gather information about your project vision, design preferences, family needs, and budget. Following this, you’ll receive a preliminary proposal detailing the professional services Seanote will offer. If you’re satisfied, signing the agreement marks the beginning of the design phase.
During this enjoyable phase, you work closely with a designer to select features, finishes, and refine plans to achieve your perfect design. Once the design is finalized, a construction agreement outlining the project timeline and estimated cost is presented to you for approval, allowing the project to move forward to construction.
As the project transitions from planning to execution, you will be introduced to your project manager, who will oversee your project’s progress. This stage involves the coordination of materials, labor, permits, and the development of a detailed construction schedule.
Construction begins on the agreed-upon start date, with your project manager keeping you informed of progress and ensuring everything stays on schedule. This phase focuses on transforming the plans into reality with minimal disruption.
Upon completion, a final walk-through is conducted with your project manager to ensure every aspect of the project meets your expectations. This step includes a thorough review of systems, structures, and finishes, with any necessary adjustments made promptly.
The project may be complete, but the commitment to quality and client satisfaction continues. Our team remains ready to address any issues that arise post-completion, backed by a warranty, ensuring long-term satisfaction and support.
