George F. Baker High School educates students from grades 6 through 12 in the town of Tuxedo, NY. Last February, a pipe burst on the first floor. RENU began abatement and remediation immediately. The building areas that required replacement due to the flood damage included the hallways, cafeteria, bathroom, ceilings, auditorium stage. Built in 1931, the building had historical elements and old Victorian charm that were significant and essential to preserve. RENU worked closely with the school and architect on key decisions. Each tile was cut ahead of time and the preservation of the 45-degree herringbone pattern in the main entrance was implemented using Mannington Amtico Spacia Stone colors Mirabelle Crème, Kura Fennel, and Stria Vocanic. It is a difficult and tedious pattern to install, but Milburn’s experts are accustomed to handling all sorts of specialty installations. Milburn replaced 10,000 sq. ft. with Mannington LVT in the corridors and cafeteria. Several bathrooms were retiled, and the wood floor of the stage was replaced. A gorgeous Marley flooring system was installed which accommodates all levels of dance and production for their theater arts program. RENU and Milburn were able to complete this project right before the first day of school. The school district said, “RENU saved the day,” getting them back up and running in better shape than the building was in prior to the flood.
