DISASTER
This ornate Serbian Orthodox Church sustained severe hail damage to its clay tiles and 5 copper domes.
RECOVERY
While the ornate roof required a unique handling experience; GC3 had to prepare and manage a plan that would protect the church’s interior Greek icons worth millions of dollars from potential water infiltration while the roof was being replaced.
RESULT
GC3 turned to one of their most trusted roofing sub-contractors that provided the required expertise in replacing clay tiles and copper roofing. With three generations of experience, GC3’s sub-contractor completed the entire roof replacement without a single interior water infiltration AND both GC3 and our sub-contractor were presented with the Mississippi Associated Builders and Contractors 2016 Excellence Construction Award for Exterior Roofing.
