Do you have a Canning story from the past 45 years?
We would love to hear from any of our team members (owners, contractors, engineers, architects) that we have had the pleasure to work with over the years. If you have a story, favorite memory or something that you want to share, feel free to send us an email.
June brings us the longest day of the year and the official start of summer. With summer comes the bright sun, and warmer temperatures and can be a joyous time with many celebrations and outdoor adventures. But warmer temperatures can also bring higher dew points and humidity with the air holding more water vapor. Temperature and humidity not only can affect human health and well being, they can also have an impact on historic buildings elements such as paint, wood and plaster. A humid climate is listed as one of the top causes of cracks in historic plaster and a common cause of paint delamination as well, both which you can read more about in the blogs that are linked below.
