Taunton window cleaner impaled on railings after falling off ladder

9:00am Thursday 6th February 2014 in News

WINDOW cleaner Jon Richardson is nursing a sore foot after falling off a ladder and becoming impaled on railings.

But without his quick reactions he reckons the accident would have been far worse.

I fell 2 metres and was going down stomach-first with the spikes coming towards me, said Jon, aged 40.

But I got my foot out just in time, otherwise Id have had four spikes through my tummy and wouldnt be here today.

Jon was on the top rung and about to start cleaning an upstairs window in Grove Gate, Staplegrove, shortly before 10am on Saturday when the ladder slid from underneath him.

After he landed on the railings, with his body on the ground, Jon at first thought hed simply trapped his ankle.

I called for help and people came running out, said Jon, of Trendle Road, Taunton, who will be off work for six weeks.

They lifted my body up level with my feet, which is when I saw the spike had gone through my foot.

For nearly a year, worshipers and visitors at St. Patricks Cathedral have beheld a mighty power above a moving scaffold of artists and restorers.

Modern-day Michelangelos and their assistants are cleaning and painting the plaster at different levels of the iconic building.

Theyve also been cleaning and restoring the stained-glass windows, pane by pane.

Anyone who walks in the Fifth Avenue entrance cant help but notice the work, but it hasnt closed the neo-Gothic building that first opened in 1878.

St. Patricks has seven Masses scheduled each weekday, from 7a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and the restorers have managed to work around or rather, on top of the worshipers.

The restorers work from the ground level to the top deck of the scaffold, which is 125 feet up.

Restoration work began in May 2012 and is expected to be completed by December 2015.

The cathedrals biggest restoration since the 1940s has a projected cost of $175 million.

Various restoration stages are being undertaken simultaneously, officials said.
