Contractor work beside the Bath shipyard
Subcontractors working around the Bath shipyard stay on site for months and keep shifting as the ways and shops get rebuilt. A Bath yard-side set has to sit clear of crane radius and outside the truck lanes that run all day. Because the Bath yard works multiple shifts, service is scheduled between crew changes rather than at midday. Units on the Bath waterfront take spray and wind straight off the Kennebec, so every one gets ballasted. Bath contractors generally keep units on monthly terms with two pumps a week when the crew is large.
Historic district renovations in Bath
The old captains' houses on the Bath side streets get full restorations that run a year or more. A Bath renovation lot is narrow, so the unit goes on the paved apron or the street side of the drive. Bath sidewalk brick and granite curbing limit where a heavy truck can pull up. We set a Bath unit where the pump hose reaches without crossing a garden or a slate walk. Winter restoration work in Bath continues as long as the owner keeps the drive clear to the set.
Waterfront events and trails in Bath
Waterfront Park and the Front Street blocks carry the Bath summer festival, the farmers market and the concert nights. Bath event sets go on the paved park apron, since the lawn by the river stays soft after rain. A Bath festival takes standard unit banks plus one ADA unit on the accessible route. Whiskeag Trail and city park crews in Bath take a single unit at the nearest gravel trailhead. Teardown in Bath happens early Monday so the park and the street parking reopen clean.
