Ocean Ritz Condominium
Daytona Beach

Undergoing the first major concrete restoration in its history and allowing all residents to remain can be very difficult.  The noise, the dirt, the duration can be tough to live with... but we have no choice.  The buildings can't be allowed to corrode away and become modern day ruins.  The Board of Ocean Ritz realized they had to take the responsibility and take the first step in controlling corrosion.  

The project began in the Spring of 2004 and was completed in June 2005, interrupted by the hurricane season of 2004.

Several balconies were completely replaced and most had significant corrosion damage.  The balcony retaining walls proved to be worse than anticipated which resulted in many walls being totally replaced. 

An interesting phase of the project included the raising of the extremely large chiller unit to allow the complete replacement of the concrete supports, which were badly corroded.  We completed this phase in 7 days and gently lowered the unit in place for many years of future service.

We are very proud of this project and thank those that supported its progress.
