Services
Sealant & Expansion Joint Replacement
Maintaining sealant and expansion joints is crucial to preserve the structural integrity of buildings and infrastructure. It is the first line of defense against water intrusion and controls thermal movements and extends the lifespan of structures by reducing the risk of cracks and damage. Regular inspection and maintenance of these joints ensure effective functionality and sustainability of structures.
Roofing Repair & Replacement
Roofing system maintenance is essential to mitigate water damage, mold growth, and structural deterioration in buildings. Regular inspections, repairs, and cleaning help prolong their lifespan, ensuring protection against harsh weather conditions and maintaining energy efficiency. Proper maintenance of roofing systems enhances the safety, functionality, and aesthetics of buildings, ultimately preserving their long-term value and structural integrity.
Deck Coating & Wall Coating
Considering applying a coating to your façade or concrete deck? Coatings play a vital role in extending the lifespan of buildings by providing a protective barrier against moisture, UV radiation, and other environmental elements. These coatings prevent water infiltration and reduce wear and tear on the surfaces, helping prolong structural integrity. Regular application and maintenance of these coatings help mitigate damage from weathering factors and contribute to structural longevity and aesthetics.
Masonry Restoration & Preservation
Masonry restoration involves working with any form of masonry on an existing building that does not encompass building from new construction, from repointing and cleaning to demolition and rebuilding. Masonry is vulnerable to moisture, corrosion, and age, potentially leading to deterioration over time. Proper masonry restoration methods address these issues and enhance the resilience and longevity of the building.
Concrete Repair & Restoration
Concrete repair comes in many different forms, enhancing the structural integrity and appearance of concrete structures. Proper maintenance of concrete structures prevents water infiltration, corrosion, and surface deterioration. By addressing issues promptly using suitable repair materials and techniques, concrete structures can be preserved, ensuring their durability, safety, and aesthetic appeal for years to come. Scheduled maintenance and timely repairs are essential to extend the lifespan and functionality of concrete structures.
Epoxy & Urethane Grout Injection
Epoxy injection and grout injection are common methods to repair cracks in concrete structures. Epoxy injection restores structural integrity by injecting epoxy resin into concrete cracks. Grout injection fills and stabilizes cracks, preventing further damage and enhancing the strength of the structure. Both techniques are effective in repairing cracks, improving the durability and longevity of concrete elements without full removal or replacement.

Accurate and timely pricing are important along with a handful of attributes. All teams follow OSHA and healthcare guidelines without extra guidance. I never have to worry about site safety or paperwork compliance. The teams are very thorough in the bidding process to ensure we are all successful together. Most importantly, the communication is great across the bidding, project startup and to completion.
