Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Childress Klein Properties celebrated the topping out of its new 22-story apartment tower in uptown Charlotte Friday with a barbecue lunch for the construction workers laboring on the project.

In biting January cold, officials and workers gathered under a heated tent in nearby Romare Bearden Park to mark the occasion.

Fred Klein III, a partner with Childress Klein, announced that the 352-unit apartment building will be called Element Uptown. He touted the $100 million-plus projects location next to Bearden Park and the nearly finished BB&T Ballpark.

Those factors, along with its luxury studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments, will make it one of the most desirable rentals in the city, he said.

People want to live in an urban environment where theres lots of stuff going on, Klein said. We just felt it was the right time. Charlottes ready for it.

His father, Fred Klein II, said the project marks the firms seventh major project in uptown, but its first apartment tower there.

We felt this was a great site, a great location, he said.

Fred Klein III said pricing for the apartments hasnt been set, but the firm hopes to start preleasing in the next few months. JE Dunn Construction should finish the building sometime this summer.

It will include a seventh-floor outdoor pool as well as penthouse apartments with panoramic views featuring Bank of America Stadium and other uptown landmarks.

The project comes amid a post-recession surge in apartment construction locally. Complexes have been popping up throughout the South End; luxury apartment tower Catalyst sits next door to Element.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) January 25, 2014

Homeowners can now bring the natural stones around their home back to life with professional restoration services. If the elements, age or regular use have left stones damaged, the team at Texas Stone Sealers can restore their beauty for a fraction of the cost of replacement. Their highly trained team offers reasonable prices, and they respond to calls quickly. Before calling in a contractor to have stones replaced, homeowners may want to consider the many benefits of the professional restoration work now available from Texas Stone Sealers.

Quite often, what the stones really need is a good scrubbing. The color of natural stones spans throughout the full structure of the stone, but it can become hidden under grime and dirt. Simply power washing the stones isnt enough, and the high pressure of water can further damage stones that are starting to crack. This is why Texas Stone Sealers uses a multi-step cleaning process with specially formulated cleaners and treatments. These treatments soak deep into the stone to loosen dirt and allow it to be lifted out. They get into the cracks and fissures to ensure that the stone is truly clean. Once the stone is clean, the natural color will start to show through again. However, Texas Stone doesnt stop with just cleaning the stones.

Just as a floor refinisher removes a layer of wood to reveal the beauty underneath, the stone restoration process removes the damaged layer of stones. Surface areas that are damaged are carefully removed to ensure that chipped areas are smoothed and stains are eliminated. Once the damage is treated, an acid wash is used to open the pores of the stone and prepare it for the next step.

Revealing the color is only the beginning. The professionals at Texas Stone follow up with a sealant thats specially designed to enhance the color of natural stones. Texas Stone Sealers' process brings out the natural beauty of most stones, including slate and marble and enhances any color to make it stand out more. Homeowners report that the stones practically look like new between the cleaning and color enhancer.

The same enhancer that brings out the color also forms a protective layer. With the pores opened after the acid treatment, the enhancer and sealer can travel deep into the stone for greater penetration and adhesion. This protects the natural stones from scratches, chips, fading and stains.

People who have natural stone patios and walkways appreciate the beauty of these surfaces, but they may have stains or damage that are marring the finish. Rather than calling contractors to rip out the stones and replace them, they can choose to invest in a restoration service from Texas Stone Sealers. The company now offers new thorough cleaning and sealing services to ensure that natural stone products continue to look great.

About Texas Stone Sealers is a professional company offering a range of services for existing natural stone services. They can seal stones for protection around saltwater pools and protect brick driveways from other stains. In addition to sealants for new surfaces, they offer restoration services for existing patios and floors. More information can be found by calling the company at 888-275-5354.
