Comprehensive Campus Restoration: Pedestrian Bridge & Decorative Pond Refurbishment at APU

BuildWise Solutions GC is a leading Commercial General Contractor specializing in exterior campus restoration and university maintenance projects across Los Angeles County and Southern California. We successfully completed the comprehensive refurbishment of a key campus feature at Azusa Pacific University (APU): the main exterior pedestrian bridge and the two decorative ponds beneath it.

Scope of Work: Bridge Durability and Commercial Repainting

The pedestrian bridge restoration was meticulously planned to enhance both its appearance and its long-term durability in a high-traffic academic environment.

• Surface Preparation: The project began with a full, professional cleaning and preparation of all bridge surfaces.
• Durable Coatings: We applied a meticulous commercial repainting system designed to enhance the bridge's aesthetic while providing superior protection against weathering and heavy pedestrian use.

Concrete Coating and Water Feature Revitalization

Below the structure, our team focused on revitalizing the decorative ponds to ensure their longevity and visual appeal:

• Pond Cleaning: We performed a deep clean, including the removal of accumulated debris and a thorough cleaning of the underlying concrete basins.
• Waterproofing: The most critical step was the application of fresh, protective coatings and waterproofing sealants. These specialized materials are designed to withstand constant water exposure and the elements, preventing leaks and extending the life of the water features.

The result is a fully refreshed, visually elevated, and durable campus feature. This project underscores BuildWise Solutions GC's commitment to quality exterior refurbishment, attention to detail, and the ability to execute complex maintenance and restoration tasks in active educational facilities with minimal disruption.
