This structure was completed in the summer of 2006 for DMB Construction. The most obvious attribute to this structure is that it does not have any right angles! The building has the shape of a triangle with two towers at two of its points. This building has an old world style with the use of a Watsontown brick and the accent precast bands. The headers for all the window opening also have a keystone feature that is prevalent in cast stone headers seen in masonry construction during the nineteenth century.

Fragale Building Corporation developed and built 64 Oak Street as part of its growing residential development business. The lot and existing ranch-style structure at 64 Oak Street were purchased and demolished for the construction of the new residence, finished with the Fragale trademarks – old world stone masonry veneers, bluestone hardscaping, and exquisite landscaping.

In addition, Fragale Building Corporation designed and constructed all the interior finishes, including the bathrooms, which were finished with stone flooring including marble, granite, travertine, and Jerusalem stone.

New England Organ Bank

This project was completed in the summer of 2009 for the Carr Enterprises & Bulfinch Companies and involved masonry additions, masonry restorations, and hardscapes. This unique building involved our expertise in the restorations of a 50-year-old building that had glazed block accents above and below all windows. These glazed blocks were spalled and required a long-lasting coating system that would adequately adhere to the existing materials. Fragale Building Corporation, in conjunction with Kamco Supply and Sto Systems, provided the ultimate solution and finish to these accents.

59 Sargent Street

The house at 59 Sargent Street was built circa 1930. This project involved specific matching requirements for a pool addition, as the existing masonry veneers exhibit several different kinds of brick from different manufacturers – some of which no longer fabricate brick. Specific attention to matching the existing masonry work required a special blend of 5 brick types and was successful in providing an exact match with the specific blend.

In addition, our in-house examination of the existing mortar color gave us the ability to find a color that also blends in with the existing mortar colors. Fragale Building Corporation also took part in the design and installation of a raised bluestone terrace to facilitate drainage.
