Adaptive Reuse & Historical Preservation Contractors Bringing the past into the Future

Quality workmanship should be honored, not covered up. We preserve the integrity of aging structures to bring the past into the present, without stripping the original character or charm that make these properties special. We find that historic buildings are often full of hidden treasures, just waiting to be rediscovered.

Commercial Renovation & Remodeling A Modern Approach to Historic Charm

From brickwork to custom trim and original wood flooring, historic buildings rarely lack in character. However, they may not have the modern amenities we’ve grown accustomed to—like insulation, HVAC, and waterproofing. Our goal is to enhance the safety, livability, and comfort of these iconic spaces, all while preserving the time-honored workmanship of our forefathers.

Honoring Our Heritage

When we take on historic and adaptive reuse projects, we meet stringent qualifications administered by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. This entails replicating 19th century building materials, like wooden sashes and slate roofs. Or repairing lathe, brickwork, and plaster walls. EGS is committed to honoring the work of those who came before us, because no matter the century, we respect masters of the craft. It’s our privilege to honor them.
