Industrial Metals building

Our first project of the year. Nothing like a blank slate, and this is how a lot of our projects start: bare sheathing, snow still on the ground, and Dad out front scoping out the situation and sharing his years of wisdom. Did I mention Dad was 81 when we did this one and still showing up to jobs? He's amazing.

We ran stone veneer around the base of the building, working off the concrete stem wall up to the belt line under the windows. About halfway through, all was going smooth and the temperature shot up quick. The first few days required freeze precautions and then we were dealing with heat. All in a day's work for a mason. We do cherish those perfect 65 degree days with no wind, but seldom see them.

Mom still pops in on occasion to keep us all in line.

Another happy customer! Masonry generally finishes well before the landscaping and the finishing touches do, so what you get at handover is a dirt yard and a traffic cone. Not glamorous, but that's the honest state of a building on the day the mason drives away.

Bare sheathed two-story commercial building on a concrete stem wall with snow on the ground — Nothing like a blank slate. This is how many of our projects start...Dad scopes out the situation and shares his years of wisdom. Dad was 81 when we did this one and still showing up to jobs...he's amazing!

Stone veneer going up along the base of a housewrapped commercial building, pallets of stone on site — About half way through the project. All is going smooth. Temperature shot up quick! The first few days required freeze precautions and now we are dealing with heat. All in a days work for a mason. We do cherish those perfect 65 degree days with no wind, but seldom see them.

Two people at the new stone veneer wainscot beside the electrical meter, cut stone stacked on a table — Mom still pops in on occasion to keep us all in line.

Finished stone veneer wainscot along the covered entry of the new commercial metal building — Another happy customer! Not the greatest picture. We generally finish up before all the landscaping and finishing touches are complete...I'll try to get another photo when the building is finished.
