Top-Rated Restoration Services for Your Commercial or Industrial Building

Although many of us think of buildings and structures as durable and permanent, structures can incur many types of distress due to moisture, movement, airborne pollutants and general deterioration. The only means for a structure to withstand the test of time is to provide it with constant protection.

Protection enhances the appearance of your building and increases its value and marketability. In many cases, buildings or structures without proper protection and care will represent a liability to their owner.

Our staff and management have many years of experience with all facets of building protection systems. So, whether it’s a parking garage, hospital, hotel, condo on the beach or major sports facility, we offer a variety of restoration services for the long-term protection of your facility.

Brick & Stone Repair

Brick and stone repair provides aesthetic and function to the exterior façade of a structure by updating the mortar joints or replacing missing, cracked or delaminated parts of the façade.

• Tuckpointing
• Brick replacement
• Stucco repairs

Thru-Wall Flashing Repair for Commercial & Industrial Buildings

The purpose of thru-wall flashing is to export all moisture or water that enters the exterior wall system. Many water intrusion issues are exposed by removing the exterior façade, getting to the thru-wall flashing and making proper repairs.

• Stucco
• Brick

Expansion/Control Joint Systems Repair

Due to the dynamic movement or usage many structures incur, the stress over time causes failures that can create water intrusion issues, substrate deterioration or safety hazards. Since the average life span of an expansion joint system is between five and 10 years at best, routine maintenance and replacement is a cost-effective method to avoid major repair costs.

You can trust the expansion joint contractors at Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing to get the job done right.

• Interior wall and ceiling repair
• Exterior façade repair
• Parking garage repair
• Roofing repair

Commercial & Industrial Caulking and Sealants

Caulking and sealants are important for protecting structures from water intrusion, air infiltration, insect intrusion, glazing failure and slab control joint protection. Since all building sealants have a life span, some more than others, we offer complete building sealant removal and replacement.

Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing offers minor repairs on all building types and substrates for all joint sealant types listed below. We also offer glazing sealant repair and concrete sealant repair.

• Silicone
• Urethane
• Polyurea
• Epoxy

Roofing Repair for Commercial & Industrial Buildings

Roofing repair provides long-lasting protection and functionality to areas that are typically not used. These types of roofing systems also provide credits toward LEED Building Certification.

• Hot-applied systems
• Garden roof systems
• Decorative paver systems

Decorative Coping Coating

Decorative coping coating provides watertight protection to one of the most vulnerable parts of a structure without completely removing and replacing the in-place coping. Instead, it covers what’s in place.

• Reinforced decorative PMMA coating

Protect Your Building With Coating Services

Coatings provide an architectural element to a structure and protect against moisture and airborne pollutants such as carbon and salts. In most cases, the addition or maintenance of a coating system provides a high level of protection, considering the average life span of most systems is between five and 10 years.

Parking Garage Coatings and Restoration

Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing also offers coating and other restoration services for parking garages. With daily use and heavy-duty traffic all day, the parking garage at your facility can take on a lot of wear and tear over time. Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing can restore it completely. We offer expansion joint, sealant, and concrete repair as well as the following coating systems:

• Elastomeric coatings
• Acrylic coatings
• Roof coatings
• Silicone roof coatings
• Pedestrian traffic coatings
• Vehicular traffic coatings
• Decorative pedestrian coatings
• Epoxy floor coatings
• PMMA traffic/pedestrian coatings

Major or Minor Structural Repairs

Structural repairs provide your structure with the integrity it needs to perform without possible catastrophic failure. We can provide minor or major repairs as needed.

• Carbon-fiber reinforcement
• Rebar repairs
• Penetrating corrosion inhibitors
• Concrete mortar repairs
• Epoxy mortar repairs

Chemical Grouts

Chemical grouts provide structural integrity and protection against water intrusion to cracks in substrates due to unforeseen conditions such as dynamic movement or substandard substrates.

• Epoxy
• Urethane

Building Cleaning & Sealing

Cleaning and sealing protect and help reduce efflorescence, atmospheric staining and mildew. They’re ideal for use on precast or stone structures by providing a substrate that’s clean but maintains its natural texture.

• Clear penetrating sealers
• Decorative stains

Waterproofing for Your Commercial or Industrial Building

Waterproofing provides a structure with long-lasting protection from water intrusion by installing protection at the point of entry or from inside a structure. We offer repair or removal and replacement on all building types and for these materials:

• Hot-applied membrane systems
• Sheet membranes
• Bentonite waterproofing
• Fluid-applied membranes
• Capillary/crystalline systems

Carbon Fiber Reinforcement

Carbon fiber reinforcement is a lightweight option that adds significant strength to concrete structures. This innovative material is a carefully calibrated blend of fiber fabrics or bars mixed with fine-grain concrete. This composition is corrosion-resistant, delivers exceptional load-bearing capacity and allows for the material to be used in a wide range of shapes and applications.

There are many advantages to using carbon fiber reinforced concrete:

• Versatility: Its versatility allows us to use it in ways that regular concrete simply can’t be applied.
• Affordability: It’s less expensive than standard concrete and requires the consumption of less material.
• Sustainability: Because it doesn’t require as much steel, it’s a more sustainable and ecologically friendly building material.
• Durability: Because carbon is corrosion-resistant, it’s more durable than traditional rebar reinforcements.
• Strength: Carbon fiber reinforcements consist of around 50,000 fibers that are wound tightly together to create an exceptionally stable grid structure. This makes it one of the strongest, lightest, and most durable building products available.

These features and advantages allow us to use it in a wide range of applications during renovation work. We can use it to strengthen and repair significant damage and to create stunning architectural features that enhance everything from functionality to curb appeal.

Commercial Restoration FAQs

Does my insurance require restoration services?

If your commercial building has been damaged, some providers may require restorations or repairs to be completed before they’ll renew the policy at the end of the current policy period. This is especially true for any damages that directly affect the safety of building occupants.

For help determining which repairs are necessary for the safety of your commercial building, contact Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing.

Will I need maintenance on these services?

Some of these services, like thru-wall flashing repair or brick replacement, may only be needed once. Others, like roof coatings or wall coatings, will need to be re-applied every 10 years or so. Caulking and sealants may need to be re-applied every few years. Talk to our team to learn how long each repair should last, on average, and when it will be time to repeat the process.

Will these services mitigate damage or prevent it entirely?

Most of these services will help prevent damage, but they can’t stop it entirely. With proper ongoing maintenance and repairs, you can minimize the amount of future damage. For help planning preventative maintenance, talk to our experts at Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing.

How often does brick need to be tuckpointed?

When it’s installed by a skilled mason, quality mortar should last 30 years or longer. Once the mortar starts to degrade, crack or fall out, it’s time to have the brick tuckpointed again. When you need a talented team to restore your brick façade, turn to our experts. We offer tuckpointing, brick replacement and more.

Which coatings are best for a roof?

Roof coatings need to be extremely durable and long-lasting to keep the roof sealed and protected. At Alpha Insulation & Waterproofing, we recommend hot-applied membranes, silicone roof coatings or elastomeric coatings for most commercial roofing applications, and we can provide a complete installation for each type.
