Honoring Historic Materials and Construction Methods
Respecting Original Materials and Techniques to Preserve Authenticity
Many historic resources, such as hand-hewn beams or period-specific brickwork, are rare and require expert replication. Traditional construction methods, including lime mortar masonry, are crucial for preserving historic accuracy.
At Sturkey Construction, our craftsmen specialize in these practices, ensuring every project aligns with heritage standards. By honoring original materials and methods, we maintain historic charm while strengthening structural integrity, delivering restorations that reflect the building’s true legacy.

These regulations protect architectural features and ensure projects maintain community heritage. To stay compliant, we:
- Research local preservation guidelines for each property.
- Partner with preservation specialists to ensure historical accuracy.
- Maintain thorough project documentation required for historical boards.
