Renovation of Camp Orkila’s Cascade Restroom brings modern upgrades, improved accessibility, and lasting durability to this vital camp facility.

EASTSOUND, WA, UNITED STATES, April 16, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Chad Fisher Construction (CFC) is proud to announce the successful completion of the Cascade Restroom renovation project at Camp Orkila, located on scenic Orcas Island in Eastsound, Washington. The two-month project involved a full-scale renovation of an aging restroom and shower facility to better serve the campers, staff, and visitors who rely on the space each season.

The 400-square-foot renovation was undertaken to modernize and improve the functionality of the structure, while maintaining durability in the face of heavy use and the island’s coastal environment. Chad Fisher Construction oversaw every stage of the project, from demolition to final fit-out, ensuring high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Scope of Work: A Complete Overhaul

Chad Fisher Construction’s team began by completely demolishing the interior walls, ceramic tile flooring, roofing and sheathing. The renovation also included removing two sides of exterior shingle siding, outdated shower systems, and the entirety of the plumbing and electrical systems.

The rebuild brought a range of high-performance upgrades to the facility. A new metal roofing system—installed by Hytech Roofing—was added, along with gutters and downspouts to improve water management. The roofline was extended to cover the northside walkway, enhancing protection from the elements and offering more accessible entry points for users.

Inside, CFC introduced new custom doors, polished concrete flooring, and FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) wall panels provided and installed by Mount Vernon Carpet One. The layout includes upgraded toilet fixtures, lavatories, and new toilet partitions to better accommodate campers and staff alike.

Lighting was updated with efficient LED fixtures, and a new heater and exhaust fan system was installed, all handled by Primac Electric. These systems are now equipped with wireless thermostats and smart sensors for easier climate control and improved energy efficiency. Red Dog Plumbing took the lead on installing a fully upgraded plumbing system, which included a new water heater and a revamped janitor’s closet complete with a mop sink and high-quality fixtures.

At the foundation level, Foundation Restoration contributed their expertise by grinding and polishing the concrete flooring, providing a clean, safe, and long-lasting surface for years of use.
