Project of the Month: Marblehead Grille and Chowderhouse

What a project! Right over New Years we were able to complete a really neat project for a popular local restaurant.  Marblehead Grille and Chowderhouse brought us in to refinish their absolutely beautiful bar top as well as all the tables in their restaurant (there are over 40 tables in the restaurant).

Here is where it gets interesting.  Being they are a successful, popular restaurant they certainly didn’t want to remain closed long as we took our good old time.

So we were given four days.  And we didn’t want to do most of the work on site (in the restaurant) due to the amount of sanding that needed to be done.  And transporting them to our shop would have been quite difficult (that’s a lot of tables).

Oh, and we had to do it within four days in frigid temperatures…

How did we possibly accomplish this feat?

A total team effort.  Curt Passaro, Jerry Brown and Greg Round led the planning and production with strong support from Jeff Lengyl, Chuck Milositz and Shawn Price

We decided to set up shop out in the parking lot.  So, we pitched a tent, brought in heaters and went to work.

The bar top and the tables came out fantastic.  The restaurant is very happy.  And we are happy to show you some pics of our “Project of the Month”.

I would strongly suggest going in to see for yourselves.  The food is fantastic.  The restaurant is located at 4101 William Penn Highway in Easton (18045).  They are located one mile east of Route 33.  Learn more at: www.marbleheadchowderhouse.com or call them at 610.258.4301.
