Last week we started a big project at Three Links Apartments here in Northfield. The work involves replacing all the windows in the building, remodeling roughly 68
kitchens, renovating and upgrading the elevator, and miscellaneous
bathroom and floor covering upgrades. We also will be excavating portions
of the foundations and adding insulation and drainage systems. The overall
goal is to greatly improve the energy use in the building and make the
living units more comfortable for the residents.
We started right away with the windows. Much of the building is clad in cement stucco so it is a task removing the existing windows and installing
new windows. We have good equipment to cut the stucco and are carefully flashing and sealing the new windows in place. An all terrain scissor lift
makes it much easier to reach the windows.
We are very pleased to be assisting Three Links with their energy
upgrades. It is great that they were able to use a local building
contractor that employs local workers…keeping many of these construction
dollars in Northfield.
