The Old Spaghetti Factory
Breathing new life into this historic building
Our own Steve Schoonover helped move this nearly 100 year old train station to its current location in the 1980s. With his previous knowledge of this building, we were able to complete the project within a tight timeline.
“When Old Spaghetti Factory's contractor failed, Bob called us for help. We stepped in and completed their new restaurant, on budget and on time.”

Project Details
Bringing Custom Quality to Commercial projects
When the Old Spaghetti Factory told us their schedule, we knew that a team of Trim Carpenters would be necessary. We used our outstanding 30 years of building relationships with local subcontractors to bring in four Trim Carpenters to finish on time.
Extensive Experience in Commercial Construction
We understand the specialized design and construction needs of businesses and high-traffic spaces, such as ADA and fire code compliance. One of our specialties is the conversion of residential structures to commercial office space.
What our Clients are Saying
“We live in an historic district and Elizabeth did a great job preparing a design which complements our house. She facilitated a smooth historic preservation permit approval. Building a carpentry shop raises a number of non-standard construction issues. Carl patiently answered our many questions. His knowledge of energy efficiency practices was very helpful. Ron, who runs the cabinet shop, provided invaluable insights regarding layout, power needs, etc. Ben and the entire G. Christianson Construction crew were reliable, on time, and hardworking. It was a pleasure to work with Carl, Elizabeth, Ben and the rest of the team. The end result is a beautiful and functional shop – a dream come true. ”

“My favorite part of this project was working with the designer to incorporate many of the original house design elements and features into the new cabinet design- such as the custom cabinet top molding that matches the same detail in the dining room ceiling. I knew immediately that Sapele was the perfect wood species for the house. It really gives the cabinetry a nice vintage feel and look while maintaining the clean lines and functionality of contemporary high end cabinetry. This project was a great demonstration of the capabilities of our cabinet shop, we couldn't be more thrilled with how it turned out. ”

“My experience with them was top notch. They're conscientious. Christianson himself, who runs the show, doesn't just turn his workers loose and then pick the check up at the end of the month. He is involved in the process. He's also very personable.”
