Schaus Mechanical

A.C.E. Building Service has completed an office renovation for our friends at Schaus Mechanical. Established more than 90 years ago, Schaus is one of our longtime trusted trade partners. The firm, located at 2901 Calumet Avenue in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, hadn’t undergone any office updates since 1970. This project involved the renovation of existing offices with the goal of optimizing the space and creating a contemporary work environment for the company’s staff. Work commenced in Spring 2018 and was completed in just four months.

In addition to optimizing the office space and making it more commodious, we worked to minimize disruption to existing operations during construction. The office remained open for the entire duration of the project meaning safety was of the utmost importance for A.C.E. crews and Schaus staff. The project was divided into two phases, which allowed the transfer of all employees into one portion of the office while work was being conducted in the other.

Schaus and our team worked directly with a local artisan and carpenter, to create a truly unique conference room table that incorporates an old valve as the table base. Reclaimed hardwood flooring material salvaged from a local industrial demolition project was incorporated in the president’s office and conference room.
