A few weeks ago, we officially retired a true piece of Sig Samuels history—our boiler that had faithfully served our shop since 1995.
For nearly 30 years, it worked tirelessly behind the scenes, helping us care for countless garments and keeping our business running day after day. But after decades of service, it had finally reached the end of its journey.
What many people don’t realize is that replacing something this essential isn’t as simple as unplugging one machine and rolling in another. Before we could even think about installing a new boiler, we first had to make room for it.
That meant carefully removing the old boiler and tearing down part of the existing boiler room structure to prepare for a much larger, more modern replacement.
Watching a piece of our history come down was bittersweet, but we knew it was the first step toward investing in the future of Sig Samuels.
Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll show you just how big this upgrade really is!
