Commercial waterproofing in Columbus
Below-grade walls, basements, loading docks and garages in commercial buildings: the same physics as a house, with more wall, more schedule and more stakeholders.
Typical commercial work
- Leaking construction joints and cracks in basement and garage walls, sealed by injection.
- Coatings on below-grade walls at loading areas and sunken entries.
- Interior drainage and sump systems for basements used as storage or mechanical rooms.
- Exterior excavation and membrane work where access allows.
How we scope it
A walk-through with your facilities or property manager, a look at past repairs and any drawings you have, and moisture mapping of the problem areas. The proposal lists each area, the method, the sequence and how the work affects tenants or traffic, with a price per area so you can phase it.
Working around a running building
We schedule noisy or dusty work for times that suit the building, keep exits and drive lanes open, and coordinate with other trades on site. Permits for exterior excavation are pulled with the City of Columbus or Franklin County where required.
