Closing out ICSC@FLORIDA in Orlando!

DeLauter’s Southeast Regional Director, Ron Smith, has spent the past few days connecting with industry professionals, strengthening relationships, and exploring new opportunities across the retail and commercial development landscape.

Events like ICSC are an important part of staying connected to the people, projects, and trends shaping the marketplaces industry, and we’re proud to have Ron representing DeLauter in the conversations happening throughout Florida and beyond.

If you’re attending the final day of ICSC@FLORIDA, be sure to connect with Ron before the event wraps up.

DeLauter is proud to announce the completion of the new Dairy Queen Grill & Chill in Dade City, Florida, a ground-up build delivered by our Southeast Division from site work through grand opening.

We first shared this project in January, when it existed only as a rendering. Since then, our team has carried it through every phase of construction, and we've been glad to share the journey with our community along the way. Seeing it open today reflects the discipline, coordination, and craftsmanship our team brings to every ground-up project.

Congratulations to our Southeast Division and to our client on the completion of their newest location.

Being specifically requested by clients for future projects is one of the greatest compliments a Construction Manager can receive, and Fred Bates, Construction Manager in our Midwest Division, has earned that distinction time and time again.

Since joining DeLauter, Fred has gone wherever he was needed, whenever he was needed, building strong relationships with subcontractors and clients and making a meaningful impact on every project he has taken on. His commitment to his team and the pride he takes in his work exemplify the standard we hold across every DeLauter project.

We are proud to recognize Fred Bates as our August Employee Spotlight.

DeLauter is proud to announce two new project awards across our Midwest and Southeast divisions.

Our Midwest Division has been awarded the SD&S Properties facade project in Melrose Park, Illinois, while our Southeast Division will begin construction on a new Cold Stone Creamery location in Clermont, Florida.

Each project represents a new opportunity to build strong partnerships and deliver the quality, precision, and attention to detail our clients expect. We look forward to bringing both projects to life.

August has brought a lot of visible progress at the future Hanger Clinic in Skokie, Illinois.

Flooring is one of those milestones that changes the entire feel of a jobsite. Much like drywall, it gives definition to the space and makes the finished vision easier to see. The funny part is that once it is installed, it is often quickly covered with protective paper so the rest of the work can continue.

Even so, it is an exciting moment in the build and a clear sign of how far the project has come. Here is a look at this month’s progress from our Midwest Division.

DeLauter has completed a North American Dental Group “Refresh” project in Poland, Ohio, marking our fifth project for this valued partner and their second opening this month.

Led by Nick Tappen and Billy Rutherford, the project was completed ahead of schedule. Our partnership with North American Dental Group continues with a major renovation underway in St. Petersburg, Florida, and another Ohio location preparing to begin in Napoleon.

We congratulate North American Dental Group and the entire DeLauter project team on another successful delivery.

Florida's 9th Edition (2026) Building Code takes effect this December. Projects submitted for permitting on or after that date will be required to meet the updated design criteria; a change that affects every architect, engineer, and developer with plans currently in progress.

For those managing active submissions, now is the time to confirm where your project stands relative to the new code.

Have any questions? Give us a call, and we can help walk you through them.

This month's Employee Spotlight features Linda Rizzo, Southeast Office Coordinator at DeLauter, Inc.

Linda joined DeLauter on February 27, 2023, bringing more than 40 years of construction industry experience with her. Her role spans permitting, Notice of Commencements, project closeout documentation, and daily office operations across the Southeast Division. The administrative and compliance infrastructure that keeps Southeast projects moving runs in large part because of the work Linda does every day. Among her proudest contributions: leading the closeout process for the Gateway Apartment project, a detail-intensive effort that reflects exactly the kind of steady, behind-the-scenes ex*****on Linda brings to everything she touches.

"The most rewarding part of my role is being able to help others. Being part of a team that works together and supports one another makes the job very fulfilling."

When asked what keeps her at DeLauter, Linda pointed not to a title or a task, but to the people. That says everything.

Thank you, Linda.

This is what the beginning looks like, and it still amazes us after 16-plus years of doing this.

Demo is underway at Perspire Sauna Studio in Palm Harbor, Florida, and framing and electrical are already getting started. What you see on screen, exposed structure, debris, raw walls, is the necessary first step toward one of the most refined and design-forward interior build-outs in the wellness industry.

DeLauter, Inc.'s Midwest and Southeast Divisions have built enough of these to know exactly where this is headed, and with yet another Perspire location in Orlando just kicking off, the work on this vertical is only growing.
