Granite Front Entrance Stairs in Medfield

HTCCI recently replaced brick stairs that were falling apart with granite stairs and platform.  The old stairs were removed and new concrete base was installed.  Lead flashing was installed to prevent water migration into the sills/basement.  New custom wrought iron railings are being fabricated.

Heirloom Bassinet Refinishing

HTCCI recently refinished a heirloom infant bassinet for one of our customers who's daughter is having a baby.  We fabricated a removable base (no tools required) for easy transport and repainted entire bassinet.

HTCC and the New Water Wheel at the Grist MIll

Check out the new water wheel at the Kingsbury Grist Mill.  Wheel turning during a test run.  Water will be turning it this coming Sunday.  Thanks to Hurley-Testa Construction and Tree Tech (crane) and all the volunteers who helped in making this happen.

Kingsbury Grist Mill Update

HTCC assisted in the construction on the water wheel a-frame structure this past weekend.  Oak timbers were donated from an old barn in Medfield and were cut to size for the water wheel.  The water wheel is scheduled for delivery in approximately two weeks.    The goal is to get the exterior water wheel running and genereate enough electricity for the mill lights.  Phase two will be to isntall the rebuilt turbine in the lower portion of the mill and re-assemble all the pulleys/gears/belts so it can turn the mill stone inside the building.
