Apartment Construction
Apartment Construction Company Serving Gilbert, AZ
Design-build management for apartment renovation, infill, and multi-unit projects suited to Gilbert’s mature, largely built-out East Valley market.
Our Approach to Apartment Construction
Gilbert’s apartment stock built up heavily during the town’s rapid growth period in the 2000s and 2010s, when Gilbert transformed from a farming community — a history still visible today in the Heritage District — into one of the largest towns in Arizona, repeatedly cited by ABC15 and other outlets among the fastest-growing communities in the country. Because that growth has largely run its course and Gilbert’s land is now mostly built out, the realistic apartment opportunities here tend to be renovation of existing apartment properties, infill construction on remaining parcels, and smaller multi-unit buildings near established commercial corridors like SanTan Village, rather than large new garden-apartment communities on open land. As an apartment construction company serving Gilbert, Hickok Homes brings the same design-build discipline we use on custom residential projects to this kind of apartment and multi-unit work.
We manage apartment projects in Gilbert as a single accountable process — design coordination, permitting, trade scheduling, and quality control under one roof — whether the scope is renovating an existing apartment community, building on an infill parcel, or completing a smaller multi-unit project. That single-team structure matters most on renovation work, where a project has to be sequenced carefully around residents who may still be living on site.
Planning & Preconstruction
Before construction starts, we confirm unit layouts or renovation scope, any shared spaces, and a phased schedule with a transparent, line-item budget, coordinating directly with your architect and engineering team where one is already involved. For a renovation project, that planning phase also means a careful inspection of the existing structure, utilities, and code compliance before we commit to a final scope and price, so surprises don’t surface mid-construction.
Construction & Quality Control
Consistent execution across every unit is the standard we hold ourselves to, whether that means a smaller new building going up on an infill lot or a multi-unit renovation inside an occupied property. The same in-house supervision we apply to a single custom home is extended across the full scope, so finish quality doesn’t drift from the first unit completed to the last.
Local Considerations in Gilbert
Apartment and multifamily development or renovation work in Gilbert goes through the Town of Gilbert’s permitting and zoning review process, and because so much of the town is already built out around established neighborhoods and commercial corridors such as SanTan Village and the Heritage District, compatibility with surrounding development is often part of that review. Apartment projects here also need to account for the same desert building-performance factors as any Arizona construction — shading, glazing, and drainage — along with Arizona’s long, hot summers and monsoon season, both of which factor into how we sequence exterior and site work. We also factor Maricopa County’s expansive desert soils into any new foundation or renovation scope that touches the building’s structure, since those soils shift with seasonal moisture and need to be engineered for specifically rather than assumed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Hickok Homes build apartments in Gilbert, AZ?
Yes. We provide apartment and multifamily construction services in Gilbert, managing design coordination, budget, and construction as one team.
Given how built-out Gilbert is, what scale of apartment projects do you take on?
Gilbert is a largely built-out East Valley town after its major growth period in the 2000s and 2010s, so most realistic apartment opportunities here are renovation of existing properties, infill parcels, and smaller multi-unit buildings rather than large new garden-apartment communities. Contact us to discuss your specific site and project.
Do you handle renovation of existing apartment buildings, not just new construction?
Yes, a meaningful share of our apartment-related work in Gilbert is renovation and tenant-improvement work on existing multifamily properties, including unit renovations, common-area updates, and capital-improvement work for owners repositioning an older building.
Can you work with our existing architect and engineers?
Yes, we coordinate construction around plans already developed by your design team.
What size apartment projects does Hickok Homes take on?
Scope varies by project, and in Gilbert that often means a smaller infill building or a renovation rather than a large new community. Contact us to discuss your development or renovation and our relevant project experience.
How long does an apartment construction or renovation project take?
Timelines depend on unit count, whether the work is new construction or renovation, and site conditions, so we confirm a realistic schedule during preconstruction rather than a generic estimate. That schedule is set before work begins as part of the budget and planning package.
How is budget handled for an apartment project?
We build a transparent, line-item budget from real subcontractor pricing before construction begins, so costs are predictable rather than a source of surprise later. Any change during construction is priced and approved in writing before we proceed.
Do you handle the Town of Gilbert’s permitting and zoning requirements for apartment projects?
Yes. Apartment and multifamily development or renovation in Gilbert goes through the Town of Gilbert’s permitting process, and we manage that submittal process, including any applicable design review near commercial corridors like SanTan Village, as part of preconstruction.
How do you keep finish quality consistent across every unit?
We hold the same in-house quality-control standard across every unit that we apply to a single custom home, rather than reserving top-tier finishes for just a model unit. One team supervises the entire build or renovation, so standards don’t drift unit to unit.
Do you offer a warranty on apartment construction?
Yes, our apartment construction and renovation work is backed by a workmanship warranty in addition to manufacturer warranties on installed systems and materials. We complete a formal walkthrough before calling any phase complete.
