Cody Vermette Group (formerly Cody-Brock Commercial Builders) has provided services to the greater San Francisco Bay Area since 1994. The company's primary goal is to surpass each client's expectations and offer them a hands-on, personalized approach. Over 90% of its projects come from repeat clients and recommendations due to the team's dedication to superior quality, affordable pricing, and excellent customer service. With the assistance of the architects from The Hayes Group, the CVG team constructed 480 Lytton for Wing Venture Capital. A 6,000-square-foot office building had to be torn down for this project. The team re-used the concrete tilt-up panels as structural elements for the new wood-framed building. An aluminum-clad panel façade, glass fin solar blinds on the second level, tile, and tempered glass storefronts are all aspects of the new structure. Energy-efficient systems are featured in the interior tenant upgrades, including the HVAC system, motorized blinds, and architectural lighting. Frameless glass fronts in private offices serve as a focal point; the unique glass and stainless steel railing system on an inside staircase provides the main centerpiece.

With over two decades of construction experience, Cody|Brock Commercial Builders has become one of Santa Clara county’s leading builders. Since starting the company in 1994, Principal Rich Cody, joined by a skilled team of leaders and builders, has built a remarkable process of creating cost-efficient and high-caliber projects. One of Cody|Brock’s high-profile projects is the Toyota Research Institute in Los Altos. The 90,000 square-foot office space features private offices, conference rooms, training rooms, a machine shop, a robotics lab, and simulator rooms. Among its noteworthy features are break rooms, an atrium lobby with coffee bar, and private meeting spaces with Japanese-inspired partitions and furniture. View the original article here.

The historic rehabilitation of this Birge Clark reinforced concrete building improved seismic safety, restored ground-floor storefronts, steel windows and terracotta roof tile, and uncovered tiles that marked the entrance of an early Palo Alto Post Office. Compatible hand-painted tile, light fixtures, and stucco restoration have brought new life to this important landmark.

In conjunction with FGY Architects, Cody|Brock’s renovation of mSpot’s Palo Alto headquarters received the AIA Honor Award.

Cody|Brock’s ground-up construction of The Palo Alto Weekly's 10,000-square-foot headquarters building was awarded LEED Gold certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. The project achieved the Gold-level certification due to green design and construction features that substantially reduced energy and water use, utilized local and sustainable building materials, and provided amenities for employees that make for a healthier and more comfortable work environment.
