Protecting Wichita Offices, Aviation Plants, Hospitals & Old Town Landmarks from Hail, Wind and Freezes
Commercial Building Restoration Experts Serving Wichita, KS
Wichita buildings stand on the open plains with nothing to break the weather. Spring storms bring hail that cracks sealants and dents metal, a steady prairie wind drives rain sideways into every open joint, summer heat passes 100 degrees, and winter brings ice, snow and freeze-thaw cycles that split mortar and stone. Road salt in winter adds corrosion at street level and in parking garages. A building here has to handle every season.
Presto Restoration has restored and waterproofed commercial buildings, parking structures and historic properties across the country for more than 25 years. In Wichita our crews work on downtown office buildings, the Air Capital’s aircraft plants, hangars and supplier facilities, the brick warehouses of Old Town, hospital campuses, Wichita State University buildings, hotels and apartment buildings. We use sealants rated for heat and cold, coatings built for hail and restoration products we make ourselves.
OUR BUILDING RESTORATION & WATERPROOFING SERVICES IN WICHITA, KS
Exterior restoration, waterproofing and building envelope consulting for commercial properties in Wichita and across Sedgwick County.
Prairie wind, hail and winter freezes tear open the seals that keep Wichita buildings dry. We reseal joints, windows and parapets with high-movement systems rated for every season.
From Old Town brick to downtown offices and medical buildings, Wichita facades take hail, wind and freezes. We repoint masonry, replace sealants, repair stone and restore metal and glass.
Garages serving downtown, the arena, Old Town, the hospitals and Wichita State take road salt in winter and hail on top. We rebuild damaged concrete, replace joints and add traffic membranes.
Wichita’s plants, hangars and warehouses sit under huge metal and flat roofs. Many can be restored by sealing fasteners and laps, repairing hail damage and coating the roof instead of replacing it.
Wichita’s historic buildings include the Eaton Hotel, the stone City Hall, Union Station, the Orpheum Theatre and the warehouses of Old Town. We preserve them with matched lime mortars and careful limestone and terra cotta repair.
Many Wichita leaks only show up when the wind blows from one direction, or drip far from where water enters a metal roof. We find the real source with spray testing, thermal imaging, moisture surveys, drone photos and hands-on inspection.

Does Presto handle permits in Wichita?
Yes. We work with the Metropolitan Area Building and Construction Department when permits are required, coordinate through general contractors on larger jobs and welcome owners who pull their own permits. Every project is covered by Presto’s nationwide general liability and workers’ compensation insurance.
What is the difference between building restoration and building maintenance?
Maintenance keeps a building clean and in good repair day to day. Restoration fixes what has failed, such as split joints, crumbling mortar, hail damage and leaking roof laps, so water stops getting in.
