We first heard about the Music Hall project through Rod Stewart, and were immediately interested in being involved in any capacity. It went on to become one of the more rewarding projects we’ve been part of, working alongside an exceptional group of companies and individuals.

Our scope included heritage masonry consulting, with design and material specifications for the parapet and pediments developed from historic photographs of the music hall. These elements were reconstructed on site by Clifford Group’s team of masons and apprentices, with careful attention to laying and tinting the brick to integrate seamlessly with the existing structure.

While Clifford built the parapets and pediments on site, our team fabricated cornice moulding, brackets, and reproduction windows at our shop in Port Hope working with heritage consultant Craig Sims.

It was a privilege to contribute to bringing this piece of Port Hope history back and we look forward to the next phases!

Cabbagetown, Toronto

This neighbourhood, full of beautiful and unique architecture is an absolute pleasure to work on. It's well known many of these houses have been sandblasted in the past decades. Thankfully it looks like there is more and more preservation occurring.

450 Pape Avenue - (1902)

100 years of foundation repairs, each time with the newest and greatest. Portland cement? Mortar in a caulking tube? We carefully removed all of this by hand with carbide chisels and replicating the original fine black mortar bead we found protected by the porch.
