Cornice Works

For a recent session of Rogers Krajnak Architect’s Mentoring Program, our staff toured Midstate Contractors’ offices and fabrication facilities in Marion, Ohio. We appreciated the insight that Bart Hooper and Tom Kemper provided as we experienced the meticulous care and craftsmanship that Cornice Works (Midstate’s fabrication division) puts into the fabrication of historically accurate architectural elements.  Each of our firms are proud of the work that we do as we provide our expertise for the restoration of our community’s significant historic buildings including churches, courthouses, community buildings, and historic homes.
