Stucco/ Waterproofing of Exterior, Parapet, and Retaining Walls

Stucco restoration and waterproofing of exterior walls, parapets, and retaining walls are essential repairs to maintain the surface stability and structural integrity of any building. Cracks or missing joints can lead to water seepage, causing severe water damage and compromising the building's safety. With decades of experience protecting New York's diverse architecture, Infinity Construction NYC delivers expert waterproofing solutions for residential and commercial properties. Our certified technicians employ advanced techniques and premium materials to ensure your structure remains protected against water damage.

Inspection and Assessment

Our process begins with a thorough inspection of the existing structure. We carefully examine for:

• • Cracks and spalls in the stucco.
• • Water damage within the stucco layers.
• • Missing or deteriorating waterproofing paint or membrane.

Stucco Restoration Process

• • Damage Removal: We completely remove the damaged layer to expose the foundational surface, ensuring all compromised material is cleared to prevent future issues.
• • Reinforcement Application: We apply wire mesh, steel strips, or thin rebars to reinforce the structure, providing added stability and preventing future cracks.
• • Application of Mortar Layers: Multiple layers of waterproof mortar mixtures are applied to rebuild the surface, ensuring the material is compatible with the existing structure.
• • Finishing Touches: The restored stucco is carefully smoothed and shaped to match the original design. We pay close attention to decorative details and ensure a seamless appearance.

Waterproofing Process

For new or existing stucco on exterior walls, parapets, and retaining walls, our waterproofing process involves:

• • Surface Preparation: We ensure the surface is clean, smooth, and dry before applying any waterproofing materials. This may include power washing, sanding, or chemical treatments to remove debris and contaminants.
• • Primer Application: A high-quality primer is applied to enhance adhesion and create a strong base for the waterproof coating.
• • Waterproof Coating Application: We use premium products such as MasterProtect HB 200 Exterior Paint, known for its exceptional weathering resistance, bright color retention, and fade resistance. This coating is applied in multiple layers to ensure a uniform and durable barrier against water infiltration.
• • Sealing and Detailing: We meticulously seal all joints, corners, and potential weak points to prevent water penetration. Special attention is given to areas prone to pooling or excessive exposure to moisture.
• • Final Inspection: Once the waterproofing process is complete, we perform a detailed inspection to ensure the application is flawless and meets our high standards.
