Reduce Costs with Waterproof and Weatherproof Specialty Coatings

Moisture is the silent budget killer in commercial buildings. From hairline cracks that invite water into masonry to UV and thermal cycling that break down sealants, small issues can turn into significant repairs fast. The right specialty coating system, applied in the right place, prevents intrusion, extends service life, and lowers the total cost of ownership.

Why Moisture Protection Matters

Prevents hidden damage: Stops water from migrating into CMU/block, stucco, EIFS, tilt-up, and porous brick.

Reduces lifecycle costs: Coatings cost a fraction of the cost of façade repairs, interior drywall replacement, or mold remediation.

Protects brand image: Clean, sound exteriors signal safety and care to tenants, customers, and congregations.

High-Risk Areas to Prioritize

• Parapets & Copings: Constant UV, ponding, and open joints. Prime paths for water entry.
• Sills, Ledges & Horizontal Details: Splashback and standing water accelerate failure.
• Block Walls (CMU): Highly porous; benefit from breathable, water-repellent systems.
• Cracked Stucco/Render: Hairline cracking wicks in water; elastomerics bridge and seal.
• Balconies, Walkways & Decks: Need abrasion- and chemical-resistant traffic coatings.
• Sealant Transitions: Around windows, doors, penetrations, and control joints, inspect and renew.

The Right Coating for the Job

Silane/Siloxane Penetrating Sealers

Invisible, breathable water repellents for natural masonry and brick—reduce absorption without changing appearance.

Elastomeric Wall Coatings

Thick, flexible membranes that bridge hairline cracks on stucco, EIFS, and masonry; excellent weather barrier.

100% Acrylic/High-Build Systems

UV-stable, durable options for general exterior walls; excellent color retention.

Urethane/Epoxy Systems 

High-wear protection for balcony decks, walkways, and back-of-house slabs.

Roof & Parapet Detail Coatings 

Reinforced mastics and compatible membranes to seal terminations and seams.

Our Approach

Our process starts with assessment and testing, a visual survey, moisture readings, and substrate evaluation to pinpoint failure points. From there, we focus on prep that sticks, including power washing, crack routing, patching, re-caulking, and priming to manufacturer specifications. We then match the system to each substrate, selecting warranty-eligible coatings appropriate for the CSRA climate. 

To keep your operations running, we use phased scheduling with off-hours work and sectional sequencing for offices, schools, churches, restaurants, and industrial sites. Finally, we uphold quality controls with wet/dry film thickness checks, adhesion spot tests, and documented punch-outs.

Signs It’s Time to Act

• Efflorescence, dark damp “ghosting,” or peeling at sills and parapets.
• Hairline cracking on stucco/EIFS or open control-joint sealant.
• Interior staining near exterior walls or windows after heavy rain.
• Deck coating wear, slick spots, or exposed aggregate.

Our climate brings high UV, humidity, pollen, and sometimes intense storm cycles, a tough combo for exteriors. Specifying breathable wall systems and robust horizontal coatings pays off here more than most regions.
