Preservation Throughout The Project
A successful preservation project starts with clear project goals and understanding if the project is a restoration, rehabilitation or adaptive use.
We help our clients understand and fulfill the many local, state and federal preservation requirements for approvals that drive potential funding and budgets, timelines, uses, and historic material treatments.
Encore provides services at every phase of the project to ensure a timely, well documented, and successfully constructed project.
