Waterproofing Protection of Your Property by White Marble Construction Inc.

Water is a major concern in the integrity of buildings and interior health of the buildings, especially, in New York City. As its infrastructure grows old, water levels rise, and weather gets more and more extreme, it is not merely a matter of maintenance to keep your property dry, free of leaks, seepage, and intruding moisture.

We are the certified and seasoned water proofers of the White Marble Construction Inc. who are delighted to serve all five boroughs. We offer long term and all-encompassing solutions not just to any part of your property, thus keeping your investment dry, secure, and structurally sound, regardless of the peculiarities of the NYC setting.

The Threat: Why NYC Buildings should be provided with specially waterproofed buildings.

The smallest leakage may develop into a far-reaching problem, and result in expensive maintenance, structural jeopardy, and health risks. The frequent leak points in New York City properties are:

• Foundation and Basement Leaks: Hydrostatic pressure caused by high water tables and excessive precipitation causes water to infiltrate the foundation cracks, mortar joints and the slabs of the concrete, resulting in wet basement areas, moulds and broken utilities.
• Facade Water Infiltration: Broken mortar joints, masonry cracks and compromised window/door sealants causes water to seep into walls creating interior leaks and speeding up masonry deterioration.
• Roof and Terrace Leaks: Flat roof and terrace, which is common in NYC, is prone to pooling water. In case the membrane or flashing is broken, it may lead to the water leaking through the ceilings and walls.
• Seepage and Efflorescence: Brick and stone absorb moisture, which may solicit salts to the surface, leaving behind efflorescence, a white, crusty deposit that may indicate deeper sources of water problems.

 Our Entire Waterproofing Solutions.

White Marble Construction Inc. gives you specific high performance solutions in every section of your building which is fully covered with the roof to the foundation.

• Beneath-Grade and Foundation Waterproofing.

We have an expertise in both the interior and exterior foundation waterproofing methods to ensure a dry basement or cellar:

Exterior Excavation and Membrane Application: Our method of exterior foundation wall is to insulate the wall with the highest liquid-applied or sheet membrane and the drainage systems (French drains) to be applied to intercept the water.

 Interior Water Management: Sometimes excavation is not an option, so we place interior drainage systems such as pressure relief system and high capacity sump pump, to control and direct water out of your premises.

• exterior wall sealing and exterior wall facade sealing.

Coating your building on the vertical surface is essential to the long life of your building:

 Masonry Sealing: We apply professional breathable penetrating sealants (Siloxane/Silane) on brick and stone surfaces and allow the wall to be able to dry naturally.

 Caulking and Joint Sealing: Experienced, cracked perimeter sealants around windows, doors and control joints are substituted with durable high-performance elastomeric caulks.

 Through-Wall Flashing Repair: We remove or correct improperly installed flashing above windows, doors and on parapet walls to guide internal water away safely off the building.

• Waterproofing of Roof, Terrace and Balcony.

Our high-traffic waterproofing systems on flat-roof structures suit the needs of NYC:

 High-Performance Membrane Systems: We install strong and smooth polybinder waterproofing sheets that resist UV, standing water and foot traffic.

Drainage Remedy: we will make sure that the pitch is right and make sure that drainage channels are clear to prevent pooling (ponding) of water on flat surfaces.
