Creating a building that satisfies a customer means addressing hundreds of issues.  Certainly, doing everything you can to deliver the project on schedule is paramount.  Assuring the highest quality construction is critical.  And listening carefully to each owner in order to establish what needs to be accomplished takes priority.

But when we at Channel remember a project, it’s often some small detail that sticks out in our minds – one significant feature that made that job distinctive.

No doubt there’ll be something special about your building project too. So we thought you might like to hear about a few details which we think tell you more about Channel than anything else we might say.

PUMA International: 50 German tiles.  That’s how many imported slate tiles it took to cover the floor of the Puma building visitor’s lavatory.  Unfortunately, it also took a plane form Berlin, a three-day delay in customs, a truck to New Jersey, and a second truck to Boston to get those tiles to the building site.  This ordinarily wouldn’t have been an issue except for the fact that Puma was a 26-week job with a 12-week deadline.  Meanwhile, the plumbers were re-assigned elsewhere in the building and the lavatory became the very last thing to be finished.  But when it was done and the tiles were polished – we all had to admit, it did look good.  Very good.
