WATERPROOFING

Waterproofing Balconies, Planter Boxes & Parking Garages with TREMCO – Proven Protection for Your Property

Proper waterproofing is essential to protect the integrity, safety, and value of your commercial or residential property. Areas like balconies, planter boxes, and parking garages are constantly exposed to moisture, weathering, and environmental stress. Without adequate waterproofing, these structures are highly susceptible to leaks, cracking, corrosion, and long-term damage. That’s why we use TREMCO’s trusted waterproofing systems—renowned for their proven results, durability, and reliability across a wide range of applications.

Why Waterproofing Matters:

  • Balconies: Daily exposure to rain, UV rays, and thermal expansion can cause surface damage and leaks that compromise the structural integrity over time.

  • Planter Boxes: Frequent irrigation and poor drainage often lead to water intrusion into surrounding walls or decks, risking mold growth and concrete damage.

  • Parking Garages: Subject to vehicle traffic, weather, and  chemicals, garages can quickly deteriorate without robust waterproofing—leading to spalling concrete, rusting reinforcements, and unsafe conditions.

Case Study: Champlain Towers South Collapse – A Tragic Reminder of Why Waterproofing Matters

In June 2021, the Champlain Towers South condominium building in Surfside, Miami collapsed, killing 98 people and devastating the community. One of the key contributing factors identified in engineering reports and investigations was long-term water intrusion and structural deterioration, particularly in the parking garage and pool deck areas.

The concrete slab beneath the pool deck had suffered major waterproofing failures, allowing water to penetrate and cause chronic concrete spalling and corrosion of steel reinforcements. The garage beneath was consistently exposed to leaks from above, with visible signs of water damage and degradation for years. Experts concluded that the lack of a properly installed and maintained waterproofing system played a critical role in the accelerated weakening of the structure.

This tragedy highlights a vital lesson for property owners, developers, and facility managers:

Ignoring waterproofing is not just a maintenance oversight—it can become a life-threatening hazard.
