Daniels & Daniels Successfully Completes Complex Renovation of Fine Arts Building

Completed in March of 2024, Daniels & Daniels Construction Company was proud to lead the renovation of the Jenkins Fine Arts Building at East Carolina University. The project involved demolishing and replacing 14 intricate curtainwall systems and adding new window treatments for natural light control, including full-length curtains and roller shades. The project also included structural repairs, metal framing, brick veneer repairs, gutter installations, a new clerestory panel system, and landscaping. The team was faced with many challenges throughout the project, including coordinating phased demolition and reinstallation of the curtainwall systems to minimize disruptions, managing a tight 7-week turnaround for temporary weatherproofing, addressing discrepancies in wall construction, and accommodating full use of classroom spaces during the projects. Despite these challenges, the collaboration between Daniels & Daniels Construction Company, East Carolina University, and Intrepid Architecture allowed the completion of the work one month ahead of the contracted schedule. Outstanding lead by Superintendent Tyler Flecken and Project Manager Brandon Zeagler!
