Why Alabama Buildings Need Engineered Envelope Solutions
Rain, Humidity And Long Hot Summers
Alabama is one of the wettest states in the country, with many areas receiving well over 50 inches of rain a year. Much of it falls in heavy downpours that push water into every open joint, cracked mortar line and worn window seal. When a building envelope has a weak spot, Alabama rain finds it quickly, and leaks often show up inside long before damage is visible outside.
Between storms, the air rarely dries out. Year-round humidity keeps masonry and stucco damp, feeds mold, mildew and algae on shaded walls, and speeds up corrosion on metal panels, railings and fasteners. Long, hot summers add strong sun that breaks down sealants and roof coatings. We choose breathable, mildew-resistant coatings and durable sealants so the exterior holds up to moisture from both outside and inside the wall.
Severe Storms Statewide, Hurricanes Near The Coast
Spring and fall bring some of the most active severe weather in the country to Alabama, with tornado-producing storms, damaging straight-line winds and hail moving across the central and northern parts of the state. These storms lift roof edges, tear flashings and crack sealant, and the damage is not always obvious from the ground. Along the Gulf Coast, Mobile and Baldwin County face tropical storms and hurricanes that drive rain sideways into facades and parapets. Our crews repair what storms have opened up and rebuild the envelope with details that resist wind-driven water.

What Kinds Of Buildings Does Presto Work On In Alabama?
We focus on large commercial and institutional properties: office buildings, hospitals and medical centers, universities and schools, hotels, government buildings, parking structures and historic brick buildings. We do not work on single-family homes.
How Does Storm Damage Show Up On A Commercial Building?
Often it is small and easy to miss. High winds can loosen roof edges and flashings, push water past window seals, and crack sealant joints without leaving an obvious hole. Hail can bruise roof membranes and dent metal panels. The leaks may not appear until the next heavy rain, so it is worth having the roof and exterior checked after a major storm.
Why Do Sealants Fail Early On Alabama Buildings?
Heat, sun and moisture work against them together. Strong summer sun hardens sealants over time, while constant humidity and frequent heavy rain keep the joints wet and test the bond between sealant and wall. Once that bond starts to fail, water gets behind it. Using high-performance sealants and preparing each joint correctly helps them last much longer.
When Is The Best Time Of Year To Schedule Exterior Work In Alabama?
Exterior work in Alabama can happen most of the year. Spring and fall usually offer the best mix of moderate temperatures and drier stretches for sealants and coatings to cure. Summer work is common but often scheduled around afternoon storms, and on the coast we plan around the peak of hurricane season when we can.
How Long Has Presto Restoration Been Doing This Work?
More than 25 years. Presto restores commercial buildings nationwide, and in Alabama we provide facade restoration, commercial waterproofing, parking deck restoration, roof coatings, historic preservation and leak detection for large commercial buildings.
