Gas station development in Palm Beach Gardens — whether a new build on a vacant pad or a renovation of an existing station — involves a clearly defined division of responsibilities. The petroleum contractor handles underground storage tanks, fuel line installation, dispenser connections, and pump island equipment — all licensed and inspected separately from the building permit. The general contractor handles everything above ground: the convenience store building construction, the fuel canopy as a structural element, site grading and paving, utility connections above the slab, and all interior C-store build-out work. Pajaziti & Associates operates squarely in the GC scope. We do not install fuel systems, underground tanks, or pump equipment — but we build everything else, and we coordinate with the petroleum contractor as part of the project team.
Above-ground gas station construction in Palm Beach Gardens routes through the Palm Beach Gardens Building Division for the building and canopy structural permits, with site work coordinated through the city's engineering and public works review. The city's plan review is thorough and rewards complete, well-organized permit submittals. We prepare the full building permit package — including canopy structural drawings, C-store architectural plans, MEP drawings, and site documentation — and manage the review process through permit issuance, construction, and CO.
Pajaziti & Associates provides licensed GC services for gas station and convenience store construction throughout Palm Beach Gardens. New builds, canopy replacements, C-store renovations, and fuel station rebrands — we handle the above-ground construction scope from permit to CO. License CBC1265699.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our construction services in this area.
Do you install underground fuel tanks or fuel systems?
No. Underground storage tanks (UST), fuel lines, dispenser connections, and pump equipment are installed by licensed petroleum contractors operating under Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) licensing and oversight. Our scope is entirely above-ground: the convenience store building, fuel canopy structure, site paving and grading, above-ground utility connections, and all C-store interior work. We coordinate with the petroleum contractor as part of the overall project team.
What does your GC scope include on a gas station project?
Our scope covers everything above the ground surface: the convenience store building shell and interior build-out (framing, MEP, ceilings, flooring, ADA restrooms, walk-in cooler rough-in), the fuel canopy as a structural element (steel framing, roofing, fascia, lighting rough-in), site grading and asphalt paving, concrete curbing, parking lot striping, and all above-ground utility connections. Fuel systems, underground tanks, and pump equipment are the petroleum contractor's scope.
What permits are required for gas station construction in Palm Beach County?
Above-ground gas station construction requires a building permit for the C-store structure, a structural permit for the fuel canopy, and site work permits including drainage and paving approvals — all through the applicable city or county building department. The petroleum contractor manages separate FDEP permits for the underground fuel system. We handle all building-side permits; the petroleum contractor handles all fuel system permits.
Do you do gas station renovations and rebrands?
Yes. C-store interior renovations, canopy replacements, exterior facade rebrands, and facility upgrades are all within our GC scope. Fuel brand transitions often require significant above-ground work — new canopy fascia, updated C-store interiors, refreshed site paving and striping — all of which we manage through the building permit process.
