Industrial Breakroom Tenant Improvement — Mission-Critical Facility, Houston, TX

Proof that QD Design sweats the details on small TI projects inside critical facilities.

Inside an operating mission-critical industrial campus on Milner Road, QD Design designed the MEP systems for a 1,325 SF employee breakroom remodel. Small tenant improvements inside sensitive facilities still face full code review — this one drew City of Houston comments on IECC 405.11 automatic receptacle controls and floor-receptacle documentation, which QD Design resolved to permit approval in a single response cycle. The project closed with full client acceptance.
