The multi-hundred-ton 1890s home in Allenhurst, NJ was in the midst of a significant renovation and expansion. The new owner aimed to enhance the interior space by expanding door openings and incorporating a wine cellar. To support these changes, the architect designed 27 new steel beams, including a 4th story ridge beam. Hale Built took on the responsibility of installing these beams, working closely with the general contractor over a period of two months. Additionally, certain basement walls needed to be relocated due to the renovation plans.
During the renovation process, Hale Built executed meticulous shoring and leveling work on several floors of the home. The team implemented advanced techniques to ensure the stability and structural integrity of the building. Multiple large beams were replaced to address any potential issues and provide a solid foundation for the upcoming phases of the project. Notably, the porches had sunken over time, requiring careful shoring and leveling to bring them back to a precise alignment within a quarter of an inch.
After months of dedicated work, Hale Built successfully completed the renovation and expansion of the Allenhurst home. The installation of the 27 steel beams provided crucial support and stability, allowing for the realization of the owner's vision. The shoring and leveling efforts on multiple floors and the precision work on the porches resulted in a structurally sound and visually stunning transformation. The meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship showcased Hale Built's commitment to excellence and their ability to deliver exceptional results.
