Services
Concrete Repair and Restoration
Concrete repair can come in many different forms from building facades to precast structures to parking garages. All of which are vulnerable when exposed to the weather. An effective maintenance routine on a parking structure can prevent costly repairs that can be disruptive to tenants and cause unexpected costs and safety concerns.
Masonry Restoration & Preservation
Masonry restoration is the phrase used for working with any form of masonry on an existing building that does not encompass building it from new construction. Restoration is tearing the masonry down and rebuilding to repointing and cleaning and sealing. Masonry structures are vulnerable to age, moisture, pollutants, building movement and deferred maintenance.
Epoxy & Urethane Grout Injection
Epoxy crack injection is an economical practice of repairing non-moving cracks in concrete walls, slabs, columns, and beams. Urethane crack injection also known as polyurethane or grout is a common way to seal and fill a leaking crack in concrete foundation walls and slabs. Either discipline provide an alternative method for repairing concrete without full removal and replacement or excavation.
Sealant & Expansion Joint Replacement
Got leaks? Exterior building sealant is the first line of defense for water intrusion on the building exterior. Neglect of this critical construction component can lead to interior and exterior deterioration of any building. Water intrusion is more than an inconvenience for property owners and tenants. Left unchecked, it can damage structural elements and shorten the useful life of buildings.
Structural Repair & Carbon Fiber Reinforcement
Structural repair can come in many different forms from full concrete column replacement, concrete beam reinforcement, externally bonded carbon fiber, supplemental steel installation, or repair and replacement to existing post-tension cables. All of which Western employs our own certified craftsmen and women who take pride in restoring America’s structures.
Deck Coatings & Wall Coatings
Considering applying a coating to your façade or parking structure? Coatings can be a fantastic cost saving and preventative maintenance measure, but they are only as effective as the caliber of preparation and installation. Whether it’s a planter, plaza deck, parking garage or façade, coating systems we install help preserve the useful life of your structure and reduce repair costs.
