What services does the Historical Commission offer? Can they help me find a contractor who can do historically appropriate work or a supplier of historically appropriate materials?
The Historical Commission staff frequently works with owners to resolve problems or suggest solutions even prior to making an application for a permit. Commission staff maintains files of various products and suppliers. Although, as a City agency it cannot recommend a particular contractor, the staff can give names of contractors that have done work approved by the Commission in the past. The Commission will also produce a manual for each property owner in the district providing detailed guidance for maintenance and making repairs. In addition, UCHS is committed to continuing to work with the University City District to provide workshops and other resources for locating appropriate solutions for old house issues, responsible craftspeople and products. UCD also maintains lists of contractors on their website. The Philadelphia chapter of the American Institute of Architects also keeps a list of architects and engineers.
