Exterior Commercial Services
Commercial Facade Renovation
Complete building exterior renovations that modernize the property and protect the envelope.
A facade renovation changes how tenants, customers, and buyers see a building. TopKey plans and executes complete exterior renovations for office buildings, shopping centers, hotels, apartment communities, and institutional properties across the DMV, combining masonry, cladding, storefront glazing, doors, canopies, painting, and lighting into one coordinated project.
One contractor is accountable for the entire envelope, and one project manager sets the schedule across every trade.

“St. John's School in Clinton, MD has used TopKey for the past 3 summers for major construction projects to enhance the safety of our school as well as making it more energy efficient with new windows. From the sales rep to the project manager to the technicians themselves have always been professional and courteous. They are always vigilant of when students are on campus and respect their safety. We would strongly recommend TopKey for any project large or small.”
“Glen, Duane, Nancy and your team did an awesome job on the Columbia Park project. Brought to light some unsafe conditions with one of the electrical panels and repaired. Addressed the hot water heater and fountain wiring issues which were outside of the original scope of work. The overall work performed was outstanding and within the scheduled time-line despite some unforeseen items that arose with the warehouse demo portion. Thank you!”

FAQ
Facades Questions, Answered
How long does a commercial facade renovation take?
A single-elevation storefront and masonry refresh may take a few weeks. A full multi-story envelope renovation can run several months. We phase work to keep the building open throughout.
Do facade renovations require permits?
Usually yes for structural, glazing, and cladding changes, and historic districts add design review. We handle permitting and approvals as part of the project.
