Infrastructure
By definition, “the basic physical and organizational structures and facilities (e.g., buildings, roads, and power supplies) needed for the operation of a society or enterprise”, infrastructure projects would seem to be very different from building medical suites and research labs. Think again.
As a General Contractor, the ability to bring projects to successful completion regardless of challenges along the way is the measure. That applies to a small remodel or a major mechanical project. By applying a proven methodology that leaves nothing to chance, we consistently, and safely, deliver quality outcomes, and do so efficiently. You don’t have to rush if you do it right.
While large infrastructure projects often go unnoticed by the public, our clients know that we perform at the highest level whether it’s a university’s fire-alarm upgrade, a hospital’s medical gas system replacement, or a manufacturer’s contaminant-free production environment.

Nanosphere
With our track-record for building-out laboratories we, at Frank H. Stowell & Sons, were not surprised to be contacted about building cleanrooms.
Nanosphere, a startup with a potentially important advance in targeted molecular diagnostics, needed a new production facility that comprised two large rooms, one at ISO level 5 and one at ISO level 6.

Medical Gas Replacement at Hines VA
One common thread for infrastructure projects is that they are often in response to a crisis (e.g., a bridge collapses). The crisis for the Hines V.A. Hospital in Hines, Illinois, was not as spectacular, but no less serious.

Fire Alarm Systems
As infrastructure projects go, installing or retrofitting fire alarm systems appears to be straightforward. In practice, these projects can be the most challenging. The devil is in the detail.
With the range and sophistication of detection devices and notification systems, and the intelligence of Building Automation systems, the options are endless. Even with the best design, installation issues can be confounding.
