Charter’s extensive value engineering efforts helped the owners of the Highlands Condominiums achieve a complete functional and aesthetic upgrade while remaining within a tight budget.
New seismic anchors brought the structure back to the intended level of stability, while new Hardiplank/shingle siding and brick veneer replaced aging vinyl siding and stone veneer. The site was regraded to channel water away from the buildings and all roofing and roof sheathing was replaced. Old insulation in the buildings’ attics was removed and new insulation was blown in.
The multi-faceted project – performed within a tight site while the buildings remained occupied – was completed on schedule.
