Balcony Waterproofing

Balcony Waterproofing Solutions by Highland Exteriors Group

Balconies are an integral part of many residential and commercial properties, providing outdoor space for relaxation and enjoyment. However, flat surfaces in Central Florida that require waterproofing pose unique challenges due to the region's heavy rainfall and intense UV exposure. At Highland Exteriors Group, we specialize in providing expert balcony waterproofing solutions to protect your property from water damage and ensure the longevity of your balcony structure.

Our Approach to Balcony Refurbishment

Our approach to balcony refurbishment goes beyond waterproofing to encompass the finishing touches that enhance both functionality and aesthetics:

  • Removal of Existing Materials: We start by removing the existing waterproofing materials and damaged decking to assess the underlying structure.

  • Cutting Siding/Stucco: In some cases, we may need to cut back siding or stucco to access flashings and ensure proper waterproofing integration.

  • Rebuilding with Proper Slope: We rebuild the balcony with the correct slope (per local code) to facilitate proper water drainage, preventing standing water and minimizing the risk of water infiltration. Most waterproofing products require a dry substrate which is generally only achievable with newly installed decking. 

  • Pedestrian Traffic Coatings: We apply coatings specifically designed for pedestrian traffic and standing water, providing a durable and long-lasting waterproofing solution for your balcony. As certified installers for Tremco, Kemper, Polyguard, and PLI-DEK balcony waterproofing systems, we use industry-leading products and techniques to ensure the highest quality results.

  • Finishing Phase: Once the waterproofing is complete, we offer a range of finishing options to suit your preferences and budget:

    • Exposed Waterproofing Membrane: Often finished with a sanded texture, exposed waterproofing membranes provide a durable and visually appealing surface.

    • Tile Installation: For a more decorative look, we can install tiles on top of the waterproofing membrane, adding elegance and style to your balcony.

    • Composite Decking: Composite Trex decking on floating "sleepers" offers a beautiful finish that is both durable and maintainable, ensuring long-term enjoyment of your balcony space.

    • Thin Pavers and Sand: Some clients opt for thin pavers and sand for a classic and timeless look, creating a sophisticated outdoor living area.

    • Artificial Turf: Perfect for creating a low-maintenance green space, artificial turf provides a lush and inviting surface for relaxation and enjoyment.

  • Green Plantar Beds: For the ultimate in luxury and sustainability, we can install "green" plantar beds capable of holding rocks, soil, and plants in a waterproof bed, adding natural beauty and tranquility to your balcony oasis.
