A pressure washer is a mechanical device that uses high-pressure water to remove mold, grime, dust mud and dirt from surfaces and objects such as brick, concrete, and precast. Just like a garden hose nozzle is used to increase the outflowing pressure of the water, our washing system allows for variable pressure dependant upon the type of cleaning required. Often times this system has hot water added to increase cleaning potential. With the use of our pressure washing system, we can strip paint off of brick and block, or clean many types of building surfaces.
Waterproofing is the formation of an impervious barrier, which prevents water from escaping wet areas to dry areas. Interior waterproofing is normally located at shower recesses, bathrooms, and below floors. Exterior items can be planters, balconies, decks, or retaining walls. Waterproofing can be applied to a wide variety of surfaces, such as concrete, concrete blocks, gypsum board, timbers, and fiber cement boards. In addition to the waterproofing listed above, we provide below grade dampproofing, as well as above and below grade vapor barriers.
Tuckpointing can be defined as the removal and replacement of mortar between stone, block, or brick. The objective is to replace the existing failing mortar with new mortar to match the original texture and color as closely as possible. Once mortar has been placed within the joint it is then tooled. Tuckpointing is also known as repointing or just pointing. When done properly, tuckpointing will provide a strong, waterproof joint that will help extend the life of a building. Whether looking at restoration, or new construction, these are some situations that may require special attention.
