Our waterproofing service helps reduce leak risks, slow roof deterioration, and provide added confidence for business owners who want smarter, long-term roof protection year-round.

Our Process

Detailed Roof Inspection

Our process begins with a detailed inspection of your commercial roof to understand its current condition and waterproofing needs. We check the roof surface, seams, flashing, drains, penetrations, ponding areas, cracks, blisters, and previous repair spots. We look for moisture concerns, weak membrane sections, surface wear, and coating suitability before recommending any solution.
 
This inspection helps us decide whether waterproofing, roof coating, repair preparation, or combined service is best for your property. A clear assessment ensures the coating system is applied correctly and supports stronger, long-term roof protection for your business building.

Surface Cleaning and Preparation

Before applying any coating or waterproofing material, we carefully prepare the roof surface. This may include cleaning dirt, removing debris, treating problem areas, fixing small cracks, sealing seams, repairing flashing, and making sure drainage points are clear. Proper preparation is one of the most important steps because coatings need a clean, stable surface to bond correctly.
 
Skipping this stage can reduce performance and create future leak risks. Our team takes time to prepare the roof with care, helping the waterproofing system last longer and perform better under daily weather exposure, ensuring a safe, worry-free season ahead.

Waterproofing and Coating Application

Once the roof is ready, our expert team applies the selected waterproofing or roof coating system using proper methods and reliable materials. Our team focuses on even coverage, strong adhesion, sealed seams, protected penetrations, and complete surface defense. We pay special attention to areas where water often collects or where leaks commonly begin.
 
The goal is to create a durable protective layer that helps resist moisture, UV damage, and roof surface aging. This careful application supports better roof performance, improved weather resistance, and reduced repair concerns for your commercial property year-round, with lasting value.

Final Review and Maintenance Guidance

After the coating or waterproofing work is complete, we perform a final review to check coverage, seals, drainage areas, edges, and overall finish quality. We ensure the roof surface is properly protected and that important details are completed with care.

Our team may also provide simple maintenance advice, including inspection schedules, cleaning tips, and warning signs to watch for after severe weather. This final step helps business owners protect their investment, extend roof life, and maintain stronger waterproofing performance with fewer unexpected roof problems in the future, ahead confidently and safely.

Different Types of Waterproofing & Coatings

These fluid-applied systems cure into seamless, highly flexible barriers perfect for irregular commercial surfaces like roofs, decks, and foundations. In Calgary and Edmonton, they bridge cracks from thermal movement and resist ponding water, UV rays, and abrasion. Quick installation with low VOC options minimizes business interruption while delivering superior commercial roof waterproofing and energy savings through reflectivity. Ideal for restorative or new-build projects requiring durable, monolithic protection.

Polyurethane and fast-curing polyurea create tough, elastic films with exceptional chemical, impact, and abrasion resistance. Suited for parking garages, industrial floors, and high-traffic areas in Alberta, they handle heavy loads, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV exposure without cracking. Seamless application ensures no weak points, while high elongation accommodates substrate movement. These provide long-term commercial roof coating performance with low maintenance for demanding commercial environments.

Silicone coatings excel on flat or low-slope commercial roofs, offering outstanding ponding water resistance, UV stability, and reflectivity to lower cooling costs in summer. In snowy, wet Alberta climates, they remain breathable yet fully waterproof, self-priming on many substrates, and resistant to biological growth. Easy recoatability extends roof life significantly with minimal disruption, making them a popular choice for energy-efficient commercial roof coating.

Torch-applied or self-adhered modified bitumen membranes deliver robust, multi-ply waterproofing for foundations, plazas, and roofs. They resist hydrostatic pressure and punctures while providing excellent adhesion in cold climates. In Calgary and Edmonton commercial projects, these time-tested systems offer cost-effective, high-performance barriers against moisture and temperature extremes, often combined with protective toppings for added durability.

Best Materials for Alberta's Demanding Climate

We partner with leading manufacturers to source premium, code-compliant materials engineered for freeze-thaw resistance, UV stability, and long-term adhesion in Calgary and Edmonton. These high-performance products minimize failures, reduce lifecycle costs, support sustainability with low-VOC options, and deliver reliable waterproofing against heavy precipitation, snow loads, and thermal cycling.

Elastomeric Acrylic & Polyurethane Coatings

Elastomeric coatings stretch over 300% to bridge cracks and accommodate movement from Alberta’s temperature extremes. Highly reflective, they reduce heat gain and energy bills while providing seamless waterproof barriers on roofs, walls, and decks. UV-stable and weather-resistant, they offer excellent adhesion to concrete, metal, and existing systems with low maintenance needs for commercial longevity.

Polyurea Spray Systems

Polyurea delivers rapid-cure, high-build protection with superior tensile strength and chemical resistance. Ideal for industrial floors, secondary containment, and traffic decks in harsh Alberta conditions, it forms a tough, seamless membrane resistant to abrasion, impacts, and corrosion. Fast return-to-service minimizes downtime, while flexibility prevents cracking in freeze-thaw environments.

High-Solids Silicone Coatings

Silicone coatings provide premium ponding resistance and extreme weatherability for flat commercial roofs. Breathable to prevent blistering yet impermeable to liquid water, they offer exceptional UV and biological resistance in Calgary and Edmonton’s variable climate.
