Reimagined Education Facility in an Aging Structure

Project Review

This project transformed an aging structure into a modern education facility while preserving the architectural charm of the original building. Key challenges included addressing structural limitations, managing hazardous materials like asbestos, and upgrading outdated systems. The renovation successfully incorporated modern HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems, bringing the building up to current standards while maintaining its historical character.

How Fernic Site Service Plans Around This

For a project like this, Fernic Site Service would take a detailed and structured approach. The first step would involve obtaining permits and conducting comprehensive inspections to assess the building's condition and identify any hazardous materials, such as asbestos, that require safe removal and abatement.

Fernic Site Service would plan structural upgrades to ensure compliance with modern safety standards, while also upgrading HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems to meet current building codes. Scheduling work during nights or weekends would minimize disruptions to adjacent operations, ensuring that neighboring businesses remain unaffected throughout the renovation process. The focus would be on seamlessly integrating these upgrades while preserving the building’s unique historical features, resulting in a modern, functional space that retains its character.
