Balcony Restoration

Apartments are Vancouver’s primary form of housing and with rain contributing to a significant portion of our annual weather, water damage is inevitable. Once water seeps into cracks, it can cause damage to the interior and exterior of your home. This damage can be in the form of rotting, mold, rust, and decay. In extreme cases, this can lead to a balcony collapse if it’s not addressed properly.

A balcony’s design, quality build, and regular maintenance are crucial to its long-term health. Catering to high-rise concrete buildings, apartments, and townhouses, we offer a wide range of services that are meant to provide you with well-rounded care, maintenance, and repair.

We perform:

Wood repairs
Concrete repairs
Drainage upgrades
Membrane repairs

With regular monitoring, you can be active in the preventative maintenance of your balcony and stop damage before it occurs. Catching problems before it’s too late means minimally invasive, cost-effective repairs.

Everything You Need to Know

How do balconies get damaged?

Even the most durable construction materials deteriorate over time. While concrete is widely used for balconies, it’s maintenance is also overlooked by property owners. Traffic, poor construction, worn-out sealant, an uneven surface and exposure to the elements all lead to its eventual breakdown. It can even lead to a collapse in extreme cases.

What are the biggest concerns for concrete?

Cracks that develop in concrete balconies will lead to water ingress, causing damage to the underlying reinforcement steel (rebar). This can not only cause rusting and rotting, but also irreversible structural damage that can become a safety hazard. They are also susceptible to the deteriorating effects of winter’s freeze and thaw cycles. This happens when water freezes into the cracks and expands them. When the ice melts, it leaves behind even bigger cracks and crumbling, scaling concrete.

Can water damage also affect balcony membranes?

Yes. When it comes to balcony membranes, they are also prone to damage. Balcony membranes are made of polyurethane and act as waterproof layers between the balcony’s uppermost surface and base structure. The effects of weathering and ageing can make the membrane prone to damage, affecting its structural integrity. A simple restoration will bring it back to life and make your balcony one to enjoy.
