Restaurant buildouts in Northern Virginia
From fast-casual in Arlington to full-service dining in Tysons, NEXUS BUILD builds restaurants across Northern Virginia as a licensed commercial general contractor. We take spaces from lease signing to health-department sign-off with one accountable team.
Every jurisdiction in NoVA — Arlington County, City of Alexandria, Fairfax County, Loudoun County — permits and inspects differently. We build in all of them, and we plan each project around its county's review timelines instead of being surprised by them.

Frequently asked questions
Do you handle county permitting in Virginia?
Yes — we manage permits and inspections in Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, and Loudoun, and we sequence construction around each county's review and inspection cadence.
Can you renovate a space that's currently operating?
Yes. We phase work around service hours and health-code requirements so an operating restaurant can stay open through most of a renovation.
Do you take small projects, or only full buildouts?
Both. The same crews that run full buildouts handle kitchen line reconfigurations, hood replacements, dining room refreshes, and code-correction work.
