This photo is the front facade of our hall. And reveals 2 major defects that need to be addressed urgently! Besides the obvious need for repainting all timbers, her bricks are tired and this window arch is in significant stress. Zoom in and you will notice the arch of the window is collapsing and the wall itself is warping!
We have received funds through the latest Gambling Fund Round to have the engineering designs/drawings done of a metal-arch to support the bricks. These engineered drawings alone, are just under $6k !
After we receive drawings of the fabricated arch, we will then get quotes to install the supportive steel-arch to the engineered requirement and fix the brickwork!
So, we need help for this massive undertaking to save our hall from collapse!
1) A steel fabrication business willing to make this archway brace supper for the job
2) A skilled and brave builder/bricklayer team willing to redo this facade for our community hall. This is her face and at 100 years old, pancake-makeup just won’t cut it any longer!
If you know of any fabricating and building companies that want to give back to their community and be loved by this Grand Dame please contact us asap.
We need this done soon! Time is of the essence essence.
