The Ohio Historical Society's Building Doctors and co sponsor Richfield Historical Society hold this free clinic for the following.
Old-Building First-Aid - The "doctors' work in teams, teaching old-building owners how to recognize and solve some of the most common sources of problems in maintaining older buildings and how to make informed decisions about repairs and improvements. The clinics are free. To register for one in your area or for details, visit www.building-doctor.org or call toll free 1-800-499-2470.
Each clinic begins with a free seminar on topics like roof repair, window repair and replacement, alterations and additions, and bringing buildings built before 1955 up to date without sacrificing the features that give them character and appeal.
Making Rounds in the Community - Tomorrow, the Building Doctors make the rounds of ailing buildings within five miles of Richfield to examine problems and prescribe cures. Their consultations are free; however, you must ask for an appointment with the Building Doctor when you register and attend this free clinic tonight to qualify.
The clinics are administered by the Ohio Historic Preservation Office of the Ohio Historical Society and made possible in part by a grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Historic Preservation Fund. This clinic is made possible by financial support from Richfield Historical Society.
