Project Description

Restoring a Philadelphian Icon

The St. Vincent's De Paul Church is an iconic landmark in Philadelphia that had seen better days. The two famous domes not only needed repair and waterproofing but the restoration efforts had to maintain all the original aesthetics.

The domes were constructed with wood frames and are covered with over 7,000 sq ft of metal sheets with seams in various states of deterioration. Once the metal seems were repaired, Sikalastic RoofPro was able to provide a seamless, durable, sustainable, maintenance free coating that kept the look and color the public can enjoy today.
