Its metal building restoration work includes replacing roofing and wall panels, updating drainage and gutter systems, and adding insulation to bring buildings to the Connecticut Building Code. Past projects include a Butler building in Milford, CT damaged by a vehicle impact, where Pacesetter provided a repair estimate for the client's insurance company, temporarily supported a damaged column, and replaced the column, girts, insulation, and wall panels with base and eave trim. Another project involved a 40-year-old manufacturing building where all existing insulation, metal wall panels, trims, girts, jambs, and gutters were removed and replaced with new components and 26ga PBR metal wall panels. The company also installed a Dyno Guard snow guard system in New Haven, CT in 2020, and completed an office redesign and interior fit-out with an expanded conference room, cubicle area, restrooms, lockers, and a lunchroom. Its new construction services run from building permits to site development to final landscaping, and its interior fit-out work includes adding walls, windows, doors, bathrooms, and kitchens.
