Sky High Lobby
|July 2, 2020
A leaking roof creates the need for repairs that required unique equipment.
The leaks in the skylight and the roof of the main lobby had damaged the drywall and left water stains on the soffits in several locations. We were tasked with making the drywall repairs and repainting the repaired areas.
The access was the real challenge.
A 120′, self-propelled spider lift was used. This lift is narrow enough to fit through a six-foot-wide by seven-foot-high opening. Talk about a tight fit! Then, with a bit of calculating, we positioned the lift where its reach would access all the damaged locations without having to be moved and releveled.
