Library Restoration & Modernization by ICON Restoration – Energy Efficiency & Accessibility Upgrades in Vaughan

ICON Restoration was commissioned to undertake significant upgrades to the library in Vaughan, focusing on addressing aging infrastructure, improving energy efficiency, and enhancing accessibility to preserve its role as a public learning and gathering space.

The Challenge

The library faced aging infrastructure, outdated systems, and accessibility issues that needed resolution to maintain a safe and functional environment. Our goal was to restore and modernize the facility while preserving its essential community function.

Key Issues:

  • Exterior façade wear requiring structural and aesthetic restoration
  • Outdated HVAC and ventilation systems impacting indoor air quality
  • Water infiltration concerns affecting longevity
  • Accessibility enhancements to meet modern standards
  • Interior space optimization for functionality and comfort

Our Approach

We designed and executed a strategic restoration plan to reinforce the library’s structure, improve efficiency, and enhance user experience with minimal disruptions.

Enhancement & Repair Process

  • Building Envelope & Structural Enhancements: Masonry and façade restoration to address wear and prevent further deterioration, waterproofing applications to protect against moisture infiltration, installation of high-performance insulation for energy savings, roof repairs and sealing to enhance durability
  • Interior & Mechanical Upgrades: HVAC upgrades for improved climate control and air quality, electrical and lighting system enhancements for energy efficiency, accessibility improvements including barrier-free entry points and navigation upgrades, fire safety system updates including alarm and sprinkler enhancements

Results

A revitalized library with a reinforced structure, enhanced energy efficiency, improved indoor air quality, modern accessibility features, and updated fire safety systems, ensuring a safe and comfortable space for the community.
