Preservation Efforts
SAC RESTORATION WORKS PROJECT, 2020-2022
This project aims to repair and restore various parts of the Cathedral’s historic building that have succumbed to environmental wear and tear. The Restoration Works will involve re-plastering and re-painting of interior and exterior walls, timber carpentry, stone works, metal works, electrical works, plumbing and roof works. The Project is expected to take 3 years. Its cost of $6million will be paid out from the Cathedral Heritage Fund (CHF) set up to fund this project as well as future heritage and building works.
