ABOUT
WHAT WE DO
BUILDING, STRUCTURE & MONUMENT CONSULTATION
HPT encourages owners and builders to take advantage of this program that highlights the evolution of a building, structure or monument and its historic fabric. The program is ideal for those contemplating a renovation or restoration project. Several members of the historic consultation team (architectural historian, general contractor, and/or architect) visit the site and provide a written report (for a nominal fee) which offers recommendations about renovation, rehabilitation and maintenance concerns. The team can also serve as overseer of a project to ensure historical accuracy and/or preservation techniques.
WORKSHOPS & DEMONSTRATIONS
HPT sponsors workshops and demonstration projects throughout the year for local builders and homeowners to illustrate traditional building and energy saving methods.
