Wrapping up work inside this downtown Rochester building. This custom interior steel ramp was installed by Bereza Iron Works to provide improved material handling access to the lower interior finish floor. Strong collaboration and solid execution by our project team from start to finish.

Another important layer coming together at the @mcclurg_autogroup addition 🏗️
These photos highlight the installation of @weareowenscorning rigid exterior insulation provided by Thermal Foams, a critical step in improving the building’s energy performance, durability, and long-term comfort. While it may not be the most visible finish in the final design, this layer plays a huge role in protecting the structure and supporting a high-performing building envelope.
Great progress on the exterior as we continue moving this project forward—more to come as the transformation takes shape.

Honoring the past while building for the future ✨
We’re excited to share a look at the latest progress at @mayeu_financial_group`s historic building, where newly installed wood floors are bringing fresh warmth and character to the space. This interior renovation carefully balances historic charm with modern craftsmanship, and these floors are a beautiful example of that harmony.
A big thank-you to @gp_flooring_solutions for their expert work and attention to detail in bringing this phase of the project to life. We can’t wait to share more as this transformation continues.

A fresh look for a familiar client.

After the holidays, but right on time for team bonding 🎯🎁
We recently gathered our team to celebrate the season together with an after-holiday holiday party — and it was one for the books. The evening kicked off with some friendly competition at the axe-throwing lanes, followed by a great dinner and plenty of laughs during our white elephant gift exchange.
More than the activities, it was the camaraderie that made the night special. Getting everyone together outside of the jobsite to connect, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company is what truly sets this team apart.
Grateful for the people who make what we do possible — here’s to teamwork, tradition, and many more moments like this.

Big spans, big impact 🚧
We’re excited to share photos from the installation of new 84` wood roof trusses for the addition at @mcclurg_autogroup. These long-span trusses are a key structural element, allowing us to create a wide-open, unobstructed space below—perfectly suited for the new vehicle service area.
It’s always impressive to see engineering and craftsmanship come together at this scale. This milestone marks an important step forward as the addition continues to take shape.

Honoring history while embracing modern design ✨
We’re proud to share progress photos from our renovation of this historic building for @mayeu_financial_group. The project focuses on elevating the existing interior finishes with thoughtfully designed coffered ceilings and updated, modern lighting—enhancements that complement the building’s original character while bringing new life to the space.
It’s always rewarding to work within historic walls, finding the balance between preservation and progress. This renovation is a great example of how timeless architecture and contemporary design can work together beautifully.
