Hi there. The Chamberlin Man here.
Every project we take on at Chamberlin becomes part of the company's collective history. Job sites generate stories that burn marks of major accomplishments, lessons learned or funny anecdotes into our company culture and our approach. It's especially gratifying when a project story ends with an industry honor. Such is the case for two recent projects.
After standing for over 40 years as landmarks in the Houston skyline, One Shell Plaza (a 50-story high rise) and Two Shell Plaza (a 26-story high rise) were in need of a little TLC. Chamberlin crews restored the building envelope, replaced leaking roofs, re-waterproofed the pedestrian plaza, and caulked windows and masonry. The process took a whopping 31 months and a heckuva lot of scaffolding, rigging and high rise expertise. After such a long haul on site, the work at Shell Plaza was viewed with pride at Chamberlin. Being recognized in the industry by the Associated Builders and Contractors for Excellence in Construction was icing on the cake.
Folks in our Dallas office also have reason to celebrate having received a Merit Award from TEXO's Distinguished Building Awards competition for work on the Federal Reserve Bank. Chamberlin crews performed exterior skin waterproofing restoration, cleaning and sealing. This too, was a project of great scale! Covering over 260,000 square feet of Indiana limestone skin, Chamberlin cut out and recaulked over 33 miles of structural silicone and 25 miles of wet glazing. With five swing stages and 20 men on site for 12 months, Chamberlin revitalized the exterior of the building and sealed it watertight.
Impressive, right? Let me let you in on a little secret that's even more impressive. On every single project, large or small, the guys and gals at Chamberlin bring personal pride and commitment to excellence with them to work. Every. Single. Day. The recognition we receive for doing so, only fuels our fire.

Until next time, I'll be seeing you around.
