supplied by All Trades was some of the best I have ever worked
with and I would gladly recommend them on any historical

All Trades Historical Restoration conducted an extensive restoration of the exterior of our 1924 sanctuary and associated church structure. The building had deterioration and cracks in the mortar joints and cornice, allowing for significant water infiltration into the building with the consequent buildup of mold, mildew and damage to the interior paint and stucco in many areas. The wood frames around the original stained glass windows were considerably damaged with some rotten material and flaking paint. The window seals were weak and decayed. Their highly qualified intervention included masonry cleaning and restoration, mortar repair, wood repair, cornice repair, and final waterproofing. All Trades, under the leadership of Cassie Gardner, guided us through the restoration with suggestions and recommendations, and excellent advice as to procedures and work sequence. All Trades’ staff kept us informed of everything that was worked on and were diligent with having us involved in all decisions required during the project. Their communications were carried out tactfully and diplomatically. Follow up reports and photographic documentation were timely and thorough. All staff were friendly, neat, and punctual, which was very refreshing. We have been very pleased with the outcome of the project and we will continue to use All Trades for the next phases of our building restoration!

I represent several large property owners whose businesses rely upon being able to maintain historically accurate and code compliant renovations. All Trades is well versed in this aspect of construction which an eye toward being efficient as well as thorough. They only employ trained and skilled craftsmen whose purpose is to enable historic building to recover their former grandeur. I have seen their work and have personally been in a position of having to review and approve their work. I have never had any concern or hesitation regarding the quality or completeness of their work.
They “stay in touch” throughout the project and advise the owners immediately if they discover any problem associated with the renovation program. They are “cost conscious” and do their best to economize throughout the entire process.
I have never hesitated to recommend their company; indeed, I frequently have done so and will continue to. In conclusion I highly recommend All Trades Historic Restoration. They are my “GO TO” company regarding matters related to historic structures. Whether it’s a complex multi-story commercial project or a single-family home, they can get the job done and they know exactly how it should be done.
