Building Restoration

BCG specializes in building service restoration in New England, focusing on both modern and historical structures. Our process—Survey, Restore, Preserve—ensures each project meets regional architectural standards and incorporates contemporary techniques.

Survey & Inspections

BCG’s restoration process begins with a comprehensive survey assessing the building’s structural condition, materials, and historical significance. Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools and experience to identify issues like moisture intrusion and structural degradation. This examination lays the groundwork for a targeted restoration that respects the building's original design and integrity. Boston has a 5 year periodic inspection requirement for buildings over 70 feet tall. See Facade Ordinance 2022 Inspection Code

Restore

After the survey, we prioritize restoration by balancing modern engineering with historical preservation. We repair or replace components to ensure functionality and aesthetics. Services include:

• Masonry Repair: Techniques that enhance stability while preserving original craftsmanship.

• Wood Restoration: Preserving features and using historically accurate replacements.

• Roofing Solutions: Modern materials that improve durability while respecting history.

The preservation phase employs strategies like coatings, drainage, and ventilation to protect buildings and extend the lifespan of both modern and historic structures through ongoing maintenance and sustainable methods.
