Daily Challenges Organizations Face with Aging Buildings

Damaged Reputation

An outdated building can damage reputation. First impressions are critical and poorly maintained facilities will lower morale, and pride.

Excessive Energy Costs & Eco Impact

Inefficient equipment, lighting, and systems drive up costs, limiting funds for other upgrades, while outdated facilities consume more energy, often failing to meet building standards.

Safety & Compliance Risk

Structural or health and safety concerns pose serious risks, potentially leading to unsafe conditions for occupants and non-compliance.

Technology & Building Management

Old technology and infrastructure make your organization ineffective and inefficient, leading to operational challenges.

Hear What Our Clients and Partners Say

“A one-month problem for most contractors is an afternoon problem for Skilled Services.”

Russ O., Knox County Schools

“We recently used Skilled Services for our office redesign project, and the results were above expectations. From the first visit, Ron had a great vision of the way the existing space could be best utilized and throughout the process gave us many great ideas on how to spice it up. The way it was designed helped us keep a relatively low budget but a high-end look and feel. Our staff love the new space!”

Joel K., Puremaxx

“I wish all contractors were as good as you! Your company did a better job than any other contractor we have ever had on this site!”
