Project Woman- Springfield

Project Woman uses its facilities to provide services and programs to create a community free of domestic violence & sexual assault. Their efforts have helped many women over the years through services such as, emergency shelters, counseling, support groups, and a safe transitional housing program. Springfield is lucky to have such an organization as Project Woman in our community and C&N Contractors was pleased to be a part of the renovation and the fulfilling of some of their wishes for updates.

Multiple buildings at the Springfield High Street site needed both interior and exterior renovations. The Manor house received new flooring, installation of new water heaters and new plumbing. Renovations also included structural repairs to the front porch, the addition of a new storm door and the repair/ replacement of gutters and downspouts. The roof was re-shingled and brick-tuck pointing was completed to maintain moisture control due to weather.

Another property known as the Carriage House needed similar repairs such as the installation of new eaves, gutters, and downspouts. The stucco on the house had become deteriorated, so it was repaired along with an entire reroofing. The exterior doors were replaced with insulated doors, as well as the addition of new storm doors. Painting of the doors, windows, and trim brightened the exterior with the curb appeal of a warm welcome.

C&N also made renovations to the inside of the Carriage House as well. This included new flooring, new cabinetry, restroom vanities, sinks and commodes in multiple units throughout the house.

Itinerant Studio – Tennant Fit Out – Winchester Building

C&N Contractors treats their work as artisans. But our “art” is different than what most people think of as art.  So, when we had the opportunity to work with and for artists, we were appreciative of their work.  As it turns out, they were also appreciative of our work.

Vicki Rulli and Tom Heaphy started Itinerant Studio in 2004 and it has been on a rising trajectory ever since. The Studio is a production art studio creating original and limited edition mixed media works using a variety of techniques and materials that serves the design and wholesale trade.  Itinerant Studio is a production art studio creating original and limited edition mixed media works using a variety of techniques and materials that serves the design and wholesale trade.

When they purchased the 100 year old Winchester Building at 149 West Jefferson Street, they turned to C&N Contractors to help them fit out the building to their needs. C&N constructed two rooms – a Shop Room and a Flatbed Printer Room – with metal studs, insulation, and gypsum board.  Included in the work were two overhead steel doors, cleaning and servicing the unit heaters, install new 200 amp electrical service, and lighting installation.  The Flatbed Printer Room is critical to the operation of Itinerant Studio and the cleanliness and environment of the room must have the utmost integrity.

Taylor Van Vliet was the Project Manager, and Terry Davidson was the Superintendent for this job.
