In April of 2008, a fire heavily damaged the sanctuary of the Holy Family Parish in Hooversville, Pennsylvania. Working in close coordination with FireDEX of Pittsburgh, Burchick was contracted to perform the general reconstruction of the fire damaged areas.

The heat resulting from the fire damaged one of the four primary ½ arch sections and four of the major purlins for the main sanctuary roof. Also, the entire exposed wood roof decking was heavily smoke damaged along with most of the interior partitions and finishes of the sanctuary and sacristy area.

Burchick was contracted to temporarily shore and disassemble the main roof structure and decking, including removal and reinstallation of the steeple. The above noted structural members were replaced along with all of the exposed wood decking.

The interior finishes were either restored/refinished or replaced with new product. In addition, the renovation/restoration project included a variety of code upgrade items such as an upper level handicapped accessible restroom, and an improved HVAC equipment and air distribution system. Also, the renovated building includes many new features to maximize energy efficiency.

The project is scheduled for completion in the Summer of 2009.

Project involves the complete removal and replacement of the 1B level parking structural concrete slab including a new traffic coating. All of the work had to be performed over the 2B mechanical floor level protecting existing mechanical and electrical equipment.

Work began in October 2008 and should be completed by August 2009.

In the fall of 2008, Burchick Construction began work on a new Dining Hall Building for the Ligonier Camp and Conference Center (LCCC).

The start of construction culminated a year long effort of preconstruction services in which Burchick worked with LCCC and the Architect, MacLachlan, Cornelius and Filoni, to evaluate costs, constructability and schedule related issues.

The upper story of this facility will house a new 3,000 SF kitchen and servery area. The upper floor will also include 2 large dining rooms of approximately 3,000 SF each to serve summer campers and conference attendees. The upper floor also includes a large outdoor porch area which overlooks the scenic Ligonier Valley.

The lower floor of the facility houses ancillary space for the food service equipment along with areas for mechanical and electrical equipment. A room has also been provided for future use, which will ultimately be equipped as a staff living quarter.

A unique feature of this building is the 50’ Bell Tower which will house a rock climbing wall for the adventurous camper.

This $3 million project is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2009.
