The costs are called leasehold improvements.
There are 3 ways you can treat them taxwise depending on their nature and cost:
1. You can take a 179 deduction and expense 100% of their cost. Please see this IRS document.
2. They can be capitalized and depreciated over 15 years.
3. If their unit cost is $2,500 or less, you can claim them as business expenses if you make the de minimis safe harbor election.
