THE BUILDING FACADE RESTORATION CHALLENGE: Waterproofing Services & Brick & Mortar Repair in Allentown, Pennsylvania
The caulking on both building facades was failing, allowing water to penetrate around the window and door perimeters as well as under the window AC units and returns. This water infiltration can lead to significant damage, including mold growth, structural weakening of the facade, and increased energy costs. The buildings also had damaged bricks, cracks in the concrete, exposed rebar, and brick and mortar joints that needed repointing. Several areas also required painting to preserve and enhance the exterior facade surfaces. Our facade restoration project in Allentown, PA, posed access challenges. Our waterproofing technicians were restricted to working during specific hours because of the building’s occupants.
THE BUILDING FACADE SOLUTION: Control Joint Caulking & Masonry Cleaning, Maintenance & Restoration Services in Allentown, Pennsylvania
To address extensive facade issues, our waterproofing company in Allentown, PA, carried out a comprehensive building restoration solution. Beginning with caulking and sealing services, we applied MasterSeal NP 100, a high-performance hybrid sealant, to all window and door perimeters, effectively preventing water infiltration. Additionally, we used a clear water repellent sealer on masonry surfaces to provide long-lasting moisture protection. Our efforts included using a specialized cleaner to remove heavy stains and pollution from the facade, restoring the original appearance of the bricks.
Moreover, we replaced damaged bricks and repaired cracks in concrete. We treated exposed rebar by cleaning it and applying a corrosion inhibitor before patching it with high-quality repair mortar. The restoration continued with repointing brick and mortar joints to enhance durability. We then applied a fresh coat of paint to selected areas for improved protection and aesthetics. Despite access challenges and restricted work hours, our waterproofing restoration technicians in Allentown, PA, successfully ensured the structural integrity and visual appeal of the buildings
