J.M. Fahey Construction is in full swing paving streets throughout the KC Metro Area, including Kansas City, Missouri and Shawnee, Kansas.  And our photographers are out there with their crews, creating new marketing photos for web and social media posts.  We have our FAA certified Pilots at some site, too, capturing their cold milling and asphalt paving operations from above – in addition to ground photos of their equipment. We have had the pleasure of providing this type of work for JM ... Read More about THEY’RE PAVING & WE’RE SHOOTING

This project is approaching the ‘finish line’ and we’re sharing a look down the final stretch.  We’ve been employing a P-Tn ProgressWEBCAM throughout this build to capture images for a full-length Time-Lapse Video.  In addition, we’ve captured periodic aerial views of milestones, our Drones and professional pilots.  The end result – to-date – is a video from demolition to pre-landscape, which you can view HERE! We hope to add a few exterior views once the landscaping is complete, but this ... Read More about ALMOST TO THE FINISH LINE!

Here we are, back in the fields of rural Kansas & Missouri, near Cameron, Missouri this time.  We’re frequently ‘all over’ these two states completing assignments for Pre or Post-Construction documentation on construction projects.  These are often cross-country sewer or water transmission lines, but can also be street or highway improvements, or powerline routes.  Our photo & video records capture existing field conditions along the route, especially recording existing damage along the ...

We’ve been helping keep our clients informed of Building Science Symposium events for more than a year, now.  It was last summer that P-Tn was able to assist this non-profit by redesigning and rebuilding their website, which you are invited to visit at BSandBEERkc.org.  The BS* is not what some might think, but instead refers to Building Science, which has the focus of bringing contractors together at these events, to network, learn about best practices in building, discover new products, and – ...
