Renovation Scopes
Four Ways We Serve Multifamily Owners
Whether you need consistent unit turns across 500 doors, a resort-style amenity overhaul, a full-property repositioning, or stabilization of an asset in receivership — we deliver under one contract with one project manager.
Unit Turns
Rapid, standardized interior renovations
Full unit turns at scale — flooring, paint, kitchens, baths, electrical, and plumbing — executed on a fixed scope and predictable timeline. We match crew size to your vacancy velocity so every unit is rent-ready fast, with zero resident displacement.
- 4–6 week average cycle per unit
- Rotating phased schedule — no relocations
- LVP flooring, shaker cabinets, quartz counters
- HVAC, electrical & plumbing included
- Standardized scopes for portfolio consistency
Common-Area & Amenity Renovations
Clubhouses, pools, fitness centers & exteriors
Transform dated amenity spaces into leasing differentiators. We renovate clubhouses, fitness centers, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, dog parks, and leasing offices — plus full exterior envelope work including siding, roofing, balconies, and parking lots.
- Clubhouse & leasing office remodels
- Pool deck resurfacing & outdoor living
- Fitness center equipment & flooring
- Siding, roofing & exterior paint packages
- Phased scheduling — amenities stay open
Value-Add / Repositioning
Full-property overhauls that lift rents
Strategic renovation programs designed to reposition aging assets and drive rent premiums. We combine interior, exterior, and amenity scopes into a single contract — with ROI modeling, lender-ready documentation, and REAC-compliant execution for institutional portfolios.
- NOI-focused scope development
- Full interior + exterior + amenity packages
- Lender & REAC documentation included
- Bulk pricing across your portfolio
- Weekly progress dashboards for asset managers
Receivership & Distressed
Stabilizing assets you did not underwrite
Renovation and stabilization for properties in receivership, special servicing, foreclosure or REO. Written condition assessments structured for court and servicer reporting, scope triaged life-safety first, and phased execution around residents who are still in place.
- Rapid written property condition assessment
- Scope split into independently fundable tiers
- Life-safety and code violations cleared first
- Per-line-item documentation for court reporting
- Occupied-property phasing, no resident displacement

Multifamily Renovation Questions Answered
Common questions from property owners and managers about resident disruption, timelines, metal building options, renovation challenges, permitting, and how we manage phased renovation projects.
Our standard approach is phased rotation renovation. We work exclusively in vacated units as they turn over, renovating each unit to the new standard before it's re-leased. This means residents are never asked to temporarily relocate — their unit is untouched until they choose to move. For exterior and amenity scopes, we schedule work in segments and provide advance notice so residents can plan around it. We also assign a dedicated community liaison on every project to handle resident communication.
Our Process
How We Execute Multifamily Renovation Programs
From initial property assessment through final unit turnover, our phased approach protects occupancy, maintains resident satisfaction, and delivers measurable ROI.
Property Assessment & Scope Development
We walk every building, review your vacancy history, analyze comparable rents, and develop a phased renovation scope calibrated to your NOI goals and budget.
Permits & Compliance Review
We review all required permits for interior, exterior, and amenity work, coordinate with your property management team on resident notification requirements, and confirm HUD/REAC compliance if applicable.
Phased Schedule Development
Your renovation schedule is built around your vacancy rate and leasing cycle. We never displace residents — we rotate through naturally vacating units and schedule exterior work in manageable segments.
Unit Renovation Execution
Crews work exclusively in vacated units with strict noise and work-hour protocols. Each unit moves through flooring, paint, kitchen, bath, electrical, and final punch in a standardized workflow.
Exterior & Amenity Construction
Siding, roofing, balcony, parking lot, pool, fitness center, and clubhouse work runs in parallel with interior renovation — scheduled to minimize resident inconvenience.
Quality Control & Closeout
Every unit receives a pre-lease walkthrough. Closeout packages include permits, as-built documentation, product warranties, and inspection reports delivered to your asset management team.

Finished Work
See the Finish Level, Not a Rendering
A walkthrough of a completed townhome renovation in Uptown Dallas, near SMU. Waterfall quartz counters, a herringbone tile backsplash, brushed brass fixtures, an undermount sink, LVP flooring throughout, and a built-out closet system.
Townhome units are a standard part of multifamily portfolios, and this is the same interior scope a unit turn or a value-add repositioning involves — filmed on the day it finished, not staged for a brochure. If you are deciding what finish level your renovation budget actually buys, real completed work answers that better than a rendering ever will.

Credentials
Licensing, Insurance & Qualifications
B2B buyers evaluating a commercial general contractor need to verify credentials before sending an RFP. Here's everything procurement teams typically ask for — transparent and current.
State Licensing
- Texas: Texas issues no state general contractor license. We register and permit through each local authority we build under — Dallas, Richardson, Plano, Fort Worth and Houston among them — and register every project of $50,000 or more with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation under the Architectural Barriers Act, where the construction documents go to a Registered Accessibility Specialist for review.
- Oklahoma: Oklahoma issues no state general contractor license. We hold an Oklahoma City Building Contractor license, active and in good standing with OKC Development Services.
- Arkansas: Arkansas Residential Builder license — covers light commercial and mixed-use work. Contact us for scope-specific licensing verification.
- Louisiana: Application submitted and awaiting approval. We are not licensed in Louisiana yet, and we do not contract work there that requires a license until it issues.
- Multi-State Capability: Our General Manager holds the NASCLA Accredited Examination for Commercial General Building Contractors. Twenty contractor licensing agencies across 17 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands accept that result in place of their own trade exam, which shortens the path to licensure when a project takes us beyond Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas. It is not a license in those states on its own — we license per project as each jurisdiction requires, and if a client needs us licensed somewhere we are not, we will pursue it for that project.
Insurance Coverage
- General Liability: $2,000,000 per occurrence / $4,000,000 aggregate — meets or exceeds requirements for institutional, municipal, and Fortune 500 project sites.
- Workers' Compensation: Statutory limits in TX, OK, and AR — full coverage for all field crews and subcontractor verification enforced on every project.
- Umbrella / Excess Liability: Available for projects requiring higher limits. Certificates of insurance provided within 24 hours of request.
Bonding Capacity
- Single Project Bonding: Up to $10,000,000 per project — bid bonds, performance bonds, and payment bonds available.
- Aggregate Bonding: $25,000,000+ aggregate program — supports concurrent projects across Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.
- Surety Partner: Bonding through a nationally recognized A-rated surety. Prequalification typically completed within 48 hours for new project opportunities.
Safety & Prequalification
- OSHA 30-Hour: All field supervisors hold active OSHA 30-Hour Construction Outreach trainings. Site workers hold OSHA 10-Hour minimum.
- ISNetworld: Active ISNetworld prequalification — required by most institutional, energy, and Fortune 500 clients. Safety plans, EMR ratings, and training records verified and current.
- Avetta: Avetta credentialed contractor — additional prequalification accepted by major corporate and industrial procurement departments.
- EMR Rating: Experience Modification Rate consistently below 1.0 — lower than the industry average, reflecting a sustained commitment to jobsite safety.
Compliance & Standards
- Building Codes: Current on IBC 2021, Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS), ADA Standards for Accessible Design, and all local amendments for cities we serve.
- Environmental: Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) compliance on every site. NPDES permit coordination for projects over one acre.
- Subcontractor Vetting: All subcontractors are prequalified for insurance, safety record, licensing, and financial stability before being approved for any UTS BuildPros project.
Industry Recognition
- BBB Rating: A+ accredited with the Better Business Bureau — zero unresolved complaints in company history.
- Veteran-Owned: Founded and led by U.S. military veterans. Military-grade accountability and mission-focused project execution on every engagement.
- Google Rating: Read verified client reviews on our Google Business Profile.
- Trade Association: Member of the Greater Fort Worth Builders Association, the homebuilders association covering Tarrant, Parker, Johnson, Wise, Hood, Somervell and Palo Pinto counties.
