As the leading construction and remodeling service, Harter Construction prides itself on understanding the intrinsic value of historical elements within a home or commercial space. Every beam, cornice, and stained glass window tells a story. Our mission is to tell these stories anew with enhanced functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability.
Our approach begins with comprehensive consultations. We prioritize understanding your vision for your project, respecting both the emotional ties to existing designs and the aspirations you have for a refreshed look. This involves an in-depth assessment of your property to determine the historical significance and architectural integrity. By collaborating closely with you and utilizing advanced design software, we offer previews of what a blend of old-world charm and modern design could look like.
Incorporating modern elements doesn’t have to mean disrupting the existing harmony of a space. Instead, it is about finding common ground where both the past and the present can coexist beautifully. At Harter Construction, our experts work diligently to match materials that echo those originally used. Whether it’s sourcing timber that reflects the same grain pattern or replicating period-appropriate moldings, our craftsmanship guarantees a perfect fusion.
Modern technology is another tool we wield with skill. High-efficiency insulation can be discreetly integrated into old walls, maintaining the original appearance while improving energy efficiency. Retrofitting homes with smart-home capabilities, such as automated lighting and heating, can also be seamlessly integrated without detracting from the traditional feel. These upgrades not only elevate comfort and convenience but also contribute to long-term savings on energy bills.
Safety and sanitation are paramount in any construction or remodeling project. Ensuring that older structures meet today’s standards is a crucial step in our process. Harter Construction inspects for any potential structural weaknesses, outdated wiring, or plumbing issues that may pose future problems. Our experienced artisans then bring these infrastructures up to code while ensuring that all works are consistent with the look and feel of your property.
The final stage of our process is execution, where careful attention to detail reigns supreme. From meticulous selection of paint colors to the innovative use of space, every decision is made with a nod to the original architecture, reflecting our commitment to maintaining the integrity and character of the building.
At Harter Construction, we believe that the key to successful construction and remodeling lies in honoring history while paving the way for future generations. Our seamless integrations are more than just a construction process; they are a pledge to enrich each client’s living or working space with a powerful blend of historical significance and contemporary elegance.
Whether you are looking to renovate a cherished family home or revitalize a commercial building, Harter Construction stands ready to adapt and bring together the best of both worlds.
