Presto Restoration completed an exterior building restoration project at 1300 Houston St in Fort Worth, TX. This multi-level commercial building in Fort Worth features a natural stone building exterior integrated with multi-level glass curtain wall systems. Our team performed natural stone restoration and exterior caulking, including professional natural stone cleaning and sealing, to improve the condition of the building exterior.
Challenge: Heavy Staining and Failed Caulking on Fort Worth Commercial Facade
The primary challenge at this commercial building in Fort Worth, TX was significant staining and discoloration across the natural stone building exterior. Over time, environmental exposure caused surface buildup and darkening on the stone facade. This left portions of the exterior heavily stained and uneven. Several areas of the commercial building exterior required professional natural stone restoration. Without proper natural stone cleaning and sealing in Fort Worth, TX, the building exterior would have continued to decline. This could have led to more costly damage over time.
Exterior caulking throughout the commercial building had also deteriorated. Failed caulking at natural stone control joints, window perimeter joints, and glass-to-metal curtain wall connections increased the risk of water intrusion. These caulking failures weakened overall commercial waterproofing across the building exterior in Fort Worth.
Our Approach: Professional Stone Cleaning, Sealing & Caulking for Building Exterior
Presto Restoration mobilized lift equipment to safely access the exterior of the commercial building at 1300 Houston St in Fort Worth, TX.
As experienced exterior restoration contractors, our team performed professional natural stone cleaning and restoration. We treated the building’s full natural stone facade. We applied Stone Restore CB2 to effectively remove staining, mineral deposits, and environmental buildup typical of Texas urban exposure on the stone exterior. In heavily soiled areas, multiple applications delivered seamless, streak-free results across the entire stone facade, restoring a consistent, like-new appearance to the commercial building exterior. After cleaning, our team applied Leach Stop sealer to protect the natural stone facade, providing enhanced long-term waterproofing and durability against weathering in the Fort Worth climate.
The restoration project also included exterior caulking throughout the commercial building. We removed and replaced deteriorated caulking to strengthen the overall building envelope and prevent water intrusion. Our caulking work addressed failed sealant at natural stone control joints, window perimeters, metal transitions, and glass-to-metal connections in the curtain wall system. High-performance silicone sealants—such as Dow 790 and Dow 795—were installed at these critical caulking areas. Wet glazing was completed at curtain wall window glass joints. This ensured a proper, weather-tight seal within the metal framing for this Fort Worth commercial building exterior.
