Round Two: Cedar Point’s Historic Hotel Breakers Undergoes Second Phase of Re-roofing
The saying “life's a roller coaster” certainly resonates with roofer Jim Carson. During the harsh winter of 2013-14, Carson and his team at A-STAR installed a Bellaforté slate roof high atop the Hotel Breakers at Cedar Point theme park in Sandusky, Ohio, during the hotel's off season — and the company went back for round two of installations during another record-breaking frigid winter.
“We started the second phase of the hotel roof installation in November of 2014 and anticipated being finished in April 2015,” said Carson, vice president of A-STAR in Macedonia, Ohio. “Northeast Ohio just experienced an unusually cold and snowy winter with temperatures many days below zero. Thanks to the quality of the polymer tiles from DaVinci Roofscapes, we were able to install product on this roof when temperatures dipped down below freezing.”
