Americano Beach Resort
Daytona Beach

The lobby project consisted of the design, demolition, and  reconstruction of a 10,000 sq. ft. area while the building was open for business.  This proved to be a big challenge, and turned out to be a great success.

Concrete restoration on the underside of the pool deck resulted in large areas of full depth concrete repair topped with a heat reflecting Kooldeck. 

The hurricanes of 2004 severely tested the storefronts protecting the unit interiors.  The leakage was severe and therefore in 2005, after much consultation with insurance companies, storefront manufacturers and engineers, R&J was asked to completely strip all sealants and replace them with a structural silicone.

In addition 2005 saw a further paint application to freshen the appearance of this landmark building, plus removal and reapplication of sealants at the window locations. 

2008 will see the introduction of some window change-outs on two floors; this planned update shows the forward thinking of the board and management.
