Massachusetts was hit with some of the windiest weather we’ve seen in a while, with gusts reaching 35 mph. That’s when we got a call from one of our clients in Boston. A metal sheet panel had come loose from the top floor of their building, and with a busy street below, it was a pretty dangerous situation.

Within an hour of the call, our technicians—Brian, Jeffrey, and Operations Manager Joe—were on-site, ready to jump into action. When they got there, they saw that the metal sheet was staying in place thanks to a light fixture that was hanging over the rooftop. It needed to be secured fast. After chatting with the client about the best way to handle it, the team got right to work.

Brian, who’s one of our height experts, got into a bosun’s chair and started safely and carefully reattaching the metal to the facade. He knew exactly what to do to stay safe and make sure everyone around him was too.

These kinds of jobs are always risky, but our technicians have the training and experience to get it done safely. Their expertise is a big reason why we’re able to handle situations like this, and we’re incredibly proud of their dedication and hard work.
