Steeple Roofing Contractor by CIS Steeplejack

There comes a time when patching and repairing cant not be performed anymore. When working on steeples, cupolas, bell towers and other high to reach areas,"band-aid" type work is commonly found easy to do. - WE DO IT RIGHT.

"Though it has been maintained and painted over the years, CIS Steeplejack recommendations and keen eye for detail and knowledge of what needed to be done was the most positive thing I've heard and seen in many years as the chairperson of our Properties Committee. My knowledge of the Steeple, its make-up, its history and maintenance goes back 30 years. It was refreshing to not only talk to someone who knows what to do, but see the work first hand being done step-by-step as you took me and anyone up to see the progress. Nothing was disguised or hidden. In the situation of steeple repairs, a quick fix would be easy to hide. This sure was not the case at Parma-South!"

A clock tower is a tower specifically built with one or more (often four) clock faces. Clock towers can be either freestanding or part of a church or municipal building such as a town hall. Some clock towers are not true clock towers having had their clock faces added to an already existing building. These 'false' clock towers should not be confused with true clock towers but are still significant buildings.


The mechanism inside the tower is known as a turret clock. It often marks the hour (and sometimes segments of an hour) by sounding large bells or chimes, sometimes playing simple musical phrases or tunes.


Although clock towers are today mostly admired for their aesthetics, they once served an important purpose. Before the middle of the twentieth century, most people did not have watches, and prior to the 18th century even home clocks were rare. The first clocks didn't have faces, but were solely striking clocks, which sounded bells to call the surrounding community to prayer. They were therefore placed in towers so the bells would be audible for a long distance. Clock towers were placed near the centres of towns and were often the tallest structures there. As clock towers became more common, the designers realized that a dial on the outside of the tower would allow the townspeople to read the time whenever they wanted.
