Services
Below Grade Waterproofing
We install advanced waterproofing systems for subterranean structures, using polymerized cement coatings and membrane barriers to prevent water intrusion. Our solutions protect foundations against hydrostatic pressure while maintaining structural integrity. Commercial-grade materials ensure long-term durability for basements and underground parking structures.
Above Ground Waterproofing
Our above-ground systems utilize urethane and epoxy coatings to shield exterior walls, balconies, and elevated decks from moisture damage. We apply manufacturer-approved membranes that resist UV degradation and thermal expansion. This protects architectural surfaces while maintaining aesthetic finishes for commercial and residential buildings.
Decorative Coatings
We apply decorative polymer coatings that combine waterproof protection with visual appeal. These systems transform concrete surfaces into durable, slip-resistant finishes for pedestrian areas and commercial spaces. Our technicians customize textures and colors while maintaining compliance with safety and drainage requirements for high-traffic environments.
Concrete Floor Finishes
Our commercial-grade epoxy and urethane floor coatings provide chemical-resistant, seamless surfaces for warehouses and manufacturing facilities. We use diamond grinding and moisture-mitigation techniques to ensure proper adhesion. The systems meet strict performance standards for heavy equipment operation and vehicle traffic areas.
Epoxy Injections
We specialize in structural crack repair using low-viscosity epoxy injections. This method restores concrete integrity by filling voids and bonding fractured surfaces. The process includes surface preparation, injection port installation, and pressure testing to ensure complete crack sealing for foundations and elevated structures.
