BAKERSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA

Project History
Located outside of Somerset, Pennsylvania, is the new
home for the Bakersville Volunteer Fire Department.
The facility is a vast upgrade from the original fire hall that
was built in 1956. The new building is nearly 17,000 square
feet and sits on 3.5 acres with enough parking for 143
vehicles. What made the Bakersville Fire Hall an interesting
project was the use of multi-colored split face block to hold
down the cost of construction. It was entirely constructed
out of remnant blocks from dead inventory, closed-out stock,
and overrun items. Due to the mottled appearance of the
fire hall, Conpro Lastic was the product of choice because
of its hiding power and waterproofing capabilities. Lettrich
Group Architects-Planners, Inc., carefully selected the colors
and design to enhance the appearance of the Bakersville
Fire Hall. Mariani & Richards Inc., executed the application
of Conpro Lastic. Bakersville Fire Hall is a fine example
of how a project can succeed if all parties involved
communicate from project planning to job completion.
