Project Rewind: Prioritizing the Needs of 275 Seniors at Clermont Park Project Rewind: Prioritizing the Needs of 275 Seniors at Clermont Park July 9, 2025 Share Share The summer of 2008 began what would be one of the most challenging and rewarding of Pinkard Construction’s 100+ senior living project: the $41 million (over $60 million in today’s dollars) renovation and expansion of the Clermont Park Retirement Community, owned and operated by longtime partner Christian Living Communities. The five-year collaboration included the comprehensive renovation and adaptive reuse of 24,000 square feet of the existing campus and 163,000 square feet of new construction, all performed in close proximity to an active senior community with 275 residents plus community staff. Determined to complete this expansion with minimal impacts to the lives of residents, CLC President and CEO Russ DenBraber tasked Pinkard with formulating a construction plan that focused on resident safety, comfort and peace of mind. The resulting, though ever-evolving, construction plan was the product of intense collaboration among Pinkard, Lantz-Boggio Architects, and Clermont’s in-house physicians, administrators, and resident care workers. One of the products of this collaboration was regular interaction between the construction team and Clermont Park residents and staff. Pinkard field teams held weekly “Coffee with the Crew” meetings to educate attendees on construction processes, upcoming construction activities, and to schedule informative job walks. Clermont’s in-house television network was constantly updated with upcoming construction activity schedules, and Pinkard provided regular updates in the Clermont newsletter. Our team was proud to be on a first name basis with the numerous residents they interacted with, many of whom regularly sent thank you notes to the Pinkard crew, thanking them for their many acts of kindness. One of the project’s major logistical challenges was how to renovate and expand Clermont’s kitchen and dining room without interrupting the facility’s responsibility to feed over 300 people three meals a day, seven days a week. Pinkard’s solution was to bring in a temporary modular kitchen large enough to allow the food and beverage staff to continue uninterrupted food service. Because the incredibly tight site forced construction crews into residents’ daily lives, Pinkard placed a huge emphasis on resident safety, traffic control, and the minimization of dust, noise, vibrations, and outages. As a result of our thorough communication plan and time-tested wayfinding, security fencing, and construction isolation strategies, Clermont Park enjoyed an incident-free construction experience. And when unavoidable outages had to be scheduled, Pinkard sponsored fun activities and outings for the affected residents. This major expansion project came with massive site utilities upgrades that revealed a “spaghetti bowl” of tangled underground piping that was nearly impossible to decipher. Working with local authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ), Pinkard and the owner/design team were able to reset the design and construction plan to incorporate replacement of much of the tangled utilities and infrastructure, saving the owner more than $100,000 and keeping the construction schedule intact. Also during the redesign, Pinkard took advantage of a changing market to re-bid the permit set package and realized a credit to the owner of $1.6 million. The savings included our fee to re-bid the entire package and included all revisions requested by the City authorities. Because of Clermont Park’s significant skilled nursing component, our field and project management teams relied upon their deep relationships with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, to jointly solve a variety of important issues ranging from the flammability of elevator hydraulic fluid to “bomb proofing” an oxygen storage facility, to solving structural constructability and code issues in the field to ensure resident comfort and safety. When faced with serious permitting problems that jeopardized the budget and schedule of the entire site, Pinkard re-analyzed the schedule and found ways to trim two months from the 13-month schedule by re-sequencing some critical path areas. Throughout our collaboration with the owner/design team, Pinkard regularly applied our comprehensive Senior Living Checklist to confirm that important quality of life issues remained in the design. “I can only say positive, wonderful things about my experiences with Pinkard,” said Cherie Neerhof, Associate Executive Director at Clermont Park. “When we hit very challenging issues, Pinkard had a way of making things appear to run seamlessly. That residents didn’t feel stressed at all or were even aware that Pinkard was in the middle of overcoming big challenges.” CLC’s Russ DenBraber agreed, saying “Pinkard’s expert sequencing made a huge difference in our ability to meet our deadlines and keep our residents happy, and they were unbending in their insistence that the subcontractors provide the highest level of quality.” As a result of Pinkard’s on-time in-budget performance, Associated Builders and Contractors awarded the Clermont Park Campus Expansion a first-place National Excellence in Construction award, our industry’s highest honor.

"I've been very impressed with Pinkard and the end result; walking into our buildings and seeing how they were constructed. The overall integrity of our buildings is very good. It’s high quality work. The facility looks very good; I’ve had a lot of good comments from our visitors." Healthcare Client "I really appreciated that Pinkard had a conscious awareness of my budget. They didn’t just spend my money. They would ask questions to understand that the money was being spent in the most efficient way possible.

These challenges were frequent occurences, and involved portions of the existing 40-year old concrete structure interfering with planned construction.

Pinkard Wood Frame Manager Discusses Innovative Approaches in Building Dialogue Pinkard Wood Frame Manager Discusses Innovative Approaches in Building Dialogue December 5, 2023 Share Share Pinkard Frameworks Manager, Dan Harris, discusses innovative approaches to wood framing in the December issue of Building Dialogue. In the article titled " The Problem with Wood Framing and How to Solve It, " Harris highlights the challenges of wood framing and offers solutions for successful projects. According to Harris, wood framing is one of the riskiest scopes in construction. The problems that can result from poorly managed framing, including schedule and quality issues that cascade into other trades, cannot be fixed with a bonding Band-Aid. Harris suggests that someone must take ownership of the wood framing process to solve this problem. Harris also points out that the lack of ownership is due to many entities having a piece of the puzzle. One example is truss design, where structural engineers rely on general design principles to complete framing plans. Truss company bids are based on these plans and will bid them as drawn, right or wrong. They have no incentive other than winning the job. These companies generally do not evaluate the project holistically, leading to problematic designs being passed to the framing subcontractor. To address these issues, Harris recommends a thorough preconstruction process that involves a general contractor with in-depth framing knowledge and their key suppliers, especially truss fabricators, with the design team. This collaboration results in framing designs that meet architectural and structural intent, ensure constructability, and seamless integration with other trades. The result is a project that can be built in budget, faster, and with simplicity that improves quality before construction starts. Harris emphasizes the importance of cultivating relationships with vendors and holding them to project specifications. This approach ensures quality and saves owners money. Once the project is set up for success, experienced and attentive on-site supervision is crucial. A dedicated framing professional who leads the Framing Subcontractor and interfaces directly with the project superintendent can catch minor issues before they become major problems. This level of supervision ensures the project stays on track and all team members are held accountable for their work. Properly implemented, Harris believes these strategies can be incredibly successful. He cites Pinkard's recent preconstruction efforts for Boulder County Housing Authority on Willoughby Corner, a multi-phased affordable community in Lafayette with 174 units in the first phase, as an example. Having a team who not only understands the wood framing process start to finish but also takes ownership and responsibility for its success is essential for ensuring that your wood frame project is delivered smoothly on schedule, competitively priced, and is a quality build that will last you decades.

Pinkard Helps Pull Off Surprise for Denver Film's Biggest Fundraiser Pinkard Helps Pull Off Surprise for Denver Film's Biggest Fundraiser August 28, 2024 Share Share Last week, Denver Film—the same organization behind the Denver International Film Festival, Film on the Rocks, and the Sie Film Center—threw its annual Summer Scream fundraiser at Colorado's beloved Lakeside Amusement Park. While hard to describe, the night includes cinema-inspired installations and interactive performances (this year’s theme was the films of Winona Ryder), an open bar, and of course all the rides and vintage charm of Lakeside. It’s Denver Film’s biggest fundraising event of the year, not to mention the best party of the summer. In a night full of surprises, the biggest highlight was slated to be an unannounced appearance from Denver-based experimental drum-corps Itchy-O, which is known for wowing audiences around the country with their wild costumes, pyrotechnics, and crowd-roving performances. The only problem: the 50+ person band needed a secret place to hide before their big entrance, and as a non-profit organization, Denver Film had no budget to pay the several thousand dollars they were quoted to put up temporary fencing around the open pavilion where Itchy-O could prepare. Enter Pinkard Construction, which happens to be working up the street at 46th and Tennyson. When Denver Film reached out asking for help, we delivered 250 feet of the fencing and privacy coverings we usually use to brand our jobsites, allowing event organizers to shroud the band from unsuspecting passersby entering the amusement park, who probably assumed there was some sort of construction going on. When Itchy-O did march onto the scene at dusk, complete with smoke machines, lasers and a futuristic neon dragon, the shocked crowd went crazy. The surprise was a success. “Pinkard was crucial to the success of Summer Scream,” says Denver Film Events Specialist Esther Lopez. “Thanks to their team, Itchy-O was able to pull off a special surprise and crash our party!" “While Pinkard doesn’t have any plans to get deeper into event production,” says Pinkard President Tony Burke with a smile, “we loved being able to creatively assist a local non-profit in their mission of inspiring and surprising Colorado movie lovers.” Check out photos of this year's Summer Scream, including Itchy-O's performance, below.

Pinkard Employees Volunteer for Food for Thought Denver Pinkard Employees Volunteer for Food for Thought Denver May 10, 2023 Share Share On April 28, 2023, a group of Pinkard Construction employees volunteered for Food for Thought Denver, a nonprofit organization that provides food to children in need. The volunteers helped pack and deliver bags of food to schools across Denver as part of Pinkard's Pink Crew initiative. Pink Crew is a program that encourages Pinkard employees to give back to their communities through volunteer work. Pinkard provides 16 hours of Volunteer Time Off (VTO) per year to each employee, which can be used for any charitable cause they choose. Pink Crew also organizes group events throughout the year, such as the Food for Thought Denver project. Food for Thought Denver aims to eliminate weekend hunger for children who rely on free or reduced lunch programs at school. Every Friday, the organization delivers bags of non-perishable food items to schools, where they are discreetly distributed to students in need. Each bag contains enough food for two breakfasts and two lunches. According to Food for Thought Denver's website, one in four children in Denver experiences hunger on a regular basis. The organization serves over 10,000 children every week with the help of hundreds of volunteers and donors. Pinkard employees who participated in the volunteer event said they enjoyed the experience and felt proud to support a worthy cause. "It was a great opportunity to work together as a team and make a difference in our community," said Kristen Rebmann, a Payroll/Staff Accountant at Pinkard. "We packed over 2,000 bags of food in less than two hours. It was amazing to see how much we could accomplish with a little bit of effort and coordination." "I was impressed by the organization and efficiency of Food for Thought Denver," said Jesus Valenzuela, an Assistant Superintendent at Pinkard. "They have a system that allows them to pack and deliver thousands of bags every week, with minimal waste and cost. They are truly making an impact on the lives of these kids."
