Churches, Schools & Institutions
Front steps, ramps, entrances, sidewalks and masonry for houses of worship, schools and community buildings, scheduled around services, classes and events.
Churches, mosques, synagogues, temples, schools and community centers have wide front steps, heavy crowds at set times and older masonry buildings. Work has to fit around services, school days and events, and safety comes first.
We rebuild front steps and landings, build ramps, replace sidewalks and curbs, repair courtyards and play areas, and handle brick pointing, lintels and parapets on older buildings. We plan the schedule with your facilities lead and keep an entrance safe and open.
Committees and boards often need a written scope and documents before approving work. We provide them.
