Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception

A stone fell from one of the church steeples and raised concern for public safety. The Summit Sealants crew came up with a plan to access the towers utilizing drones (UAVs). Initial inspection revealed that there was a lot of work that needed to be done. Lots of scaffolding and several years later, the project was successfully completed, allowing the building to last for decades to come.
Some of the repairs involved tuckpointing, dutchman repairs, stone replacement, and much more!
