Charles Historical Renovation
This historical building renovation was a very special project. This apartment building was originally built in 1886. Once a brothel, this structure has seen Santa Rosa grow up around it. When Carrington Construction first began the project, we found the historical apartments were in shambles. The foundation had given way allowing the apartment to settle in the mud. After many years of neglect and dry rot accumulation Carrington Construction was hired to bring her back to its former glory. We elevated the structure and removed the old foundation. We then replaced the foundation and re leveled the building. There was also a full rewire, re plumb and replacement of the mechanical system. The roof had major fire damage from a past fire which we repaired and the decks surrounding the building were replaced.

Along with the improvements mentioned above there was a complete renovation to the exterior of the building. All trims, siding, and exterior work were directed by the historical society during the renovation, and with their guidance and the exterior came back to life. Work on the interior included a full gut; new drywall, paint, trim, hardwood flooring and new appliances in each apartment.
