Water intrusion is the most costly and pervasive form of building envelope failure in the southeastern United States. Improper drainage, failed membrane systems, hydrostatic pressure at grade, and inadequately sealed penetrations account for billions of dollars in annual building damage across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC deploys engineered waterproofing systems — not waterproof coatings marketed as permanent solutions. Our specifications are developed based on substrate type, hydrostatic pressure conditions, building use, and the performance standards established by the Sealant Waterproofing and Restoration Institute (SWRI).
Below-grade waterproofing protects foundation walls, elevator pits, utility tunnels, and below-grade parking structures from hydrostatic pressure and groundwater infiltration. We install positive-side, negative-side, and blind-side membrane systems depending on access conditions and project requirements. Systems include fluid-applied rubberized asphaltic membranes, sheet-applied polyethylene and TPO membranes, and crystalline waterproofing for cementitious substrates.
Exterior masonry, concrete, and mixed-material facades across the Carolinas and Virginia experience sustained wind-driven rain, thermal cycling, and UV degradation that compromise sealant joints, material interfaces, and surface coatings over time. We restore facade waterproofing through a combination of joint sealant replacement, surface preparation, water repellent application, and membrane detailing at critical transitions.
Occupied plaza decks, parking decks, and roof-to-grade transitions require traffic-bearing waterproofing systems that maintain membrane integrity under constant mechanical loading. We install hot-applied rubberized asphalt systems, cold-applied polyurethane systems, and hybrid membrane assemblies with appropriate drainage layers and protection boards.
Rooftop surfaces and mechanical equipment areas are subject to standing water, ponding, and thermal movement that standard roofing systems are not engineered to resist. Our deck coating systems add a supplementary waterproofing membrane layer over existing roof assemblies, extending service life and reducing the frequency of full roof replacement.
Penetrating water repellent treatment for masonry, concrete, and stone surfaces is a cost-effective first-line defense against wind-driven rain infiltration in otherwise structurally sound facades. We specify and apply silane, siloxane, and silane/siloxane blend penetrating repellents appropriate to the substrate density, porosity, and geographic exposure of each building.
Waterproofing failures are rarely material failures — they are installation failures. Our process is built to eliminate both.

Concrete structures deteriorate through a predictable set of mechanisms: chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement, carbonation, freeze-thaw cycling, alkali-silica reaction, and mechanical damage from impact or overload. Each mechanism produces distinct failure patterns — and requires a distinct repair approach.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC approaches concrete repair as a forensic discipline. Before any material is placed, our technicians identify the active deterioration mechanism, evaluate the extent of rebar corrosion and section loss, assess concrete delamination and spall depth, and specify repair materials with the compressive strength, bond strength, and durability characteristics required for the specific exposure condition and structural application.
We work with engineer-reviewed repair mortars from BASF, Sika, Euclid Chemical, and Master Builders, specifying products by compressive strength class, chloride permeability rating, and freeze-thaw resistance. Generic big-box repair mortars are not used on our commercial projects.

Building envelope joint sealants are the first line of defense against wind-driven rain, air infiltration, and thermal movement-related water intrusion. Sealant failure — through adhesion loss, cohesive splitting, hardening, or improper joint design — is one of the most common and correctable causes of building envelope leakage in commercial construction.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC performs commercial caulking and joint sealant installation per ASTM C1193, the standard guide for use of joint sealants. Our specifications consider joint movement capability, substrate chemistry, UV exposure, thermal cycling range, and traffic exposure to select sealants that maintain watertight performance for the full service life of the assembly

A failed sealant joint costs far more to remediate than to prevent. Joint sealant service life can be extended with proper installation — and destroyed by improper material selection.

Masonry buildings across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia represent a significant portion of the commercial building stock — and most of that masonry was built before modern moisture management and building science principles were applied to envelope design. The result is widespread mortar joint deterioration, face spalling, water infiltration at thru-wall penetrations, and missing or failed flashing systems.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC provides comprehensive commercial masonry restoration services that address the full range of masonry envelope failures — from mortar joint repointing to full thru-wall flashing systems — with materials and methods appropriate to the substrate age, type, and structural configuration.
Deteriorated mortar joints — identified by crumbling, recessed, or missing mortar — allow water infiltration at the most vulnerable points of a masonry wall assembly. Our tuckpointing crews saw-cut or grind failed joints to proper depth, clean the joint, and pack new mortar that matches the original in strength, color, composition, and texture. We do not over-pack joints, use mortar that is stronger than the adjacent masonry, or skip the backer-rod staging required for deep joint remediation.
Spalled, cracked, or mechanically failed masonry units are removed and replaced with matching units — sourced to match the original in size, color, texture, and coefficient of thermal expansion wherever historic preservation is required or visual match is specified.
Thru-wall flashing is the single most important water management component in a cavity wall assembly — and among the most frequently absent or failed elements in older commercial buildings. We install new thru-wall flashing systems using copper, stainless, or rubberized asphaltic flashing materials, integrated with weep holes and appropriate sealant terminations to direct water out of the wall cavity.
Steel lintels and shelf angles embedded in masonry walls are subject to corrosion-induced expansion that fractures the surrounding masonry. We remove and replace deteriorated lintels, treat corrosion-active steel, and rebuild the masonry above to reinstate the structural and waterproofing continuity of the assembly.
Masonry restoration work done with the wrong mortar strength destroys historic buildings faster than deferred maintenance. Our mortar specifications are tested to the substrate.

The historic building stock of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia includes significant quantities of ornamental terra cotta, carved limestone, granite cladding, and cast stone — applied to commercial buildings, civic structures, institutional campuses, and historic landmarks built predominantly between 1880 and 1940. These materials are irreplaceable, and their deterioration mechanisms are categorically different from those affecting modern construction materials.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC performs historic stone and terra cotta restoration work consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and current best practices in preservation masonry. Our technicians are trained in the specific tools, mortars, consolidants, and patching methods required to stabilize, repair, and preserve these materials without causing accelerated deterioration from incompatible treatments.
We specify lime-based mortars, hydraulic lime grouts, and mineral-aggregate patching compounds calibrated to the compressive strength, vapor permeability, and thermal expansion characteristics of the historic substrate. Portland-cement-dominated products are not used on original historic masonry without documented engineering justification.

Expansion joints are engineered discontinuities in building structure, envelope, and hardscape that accommodate thermal movement, seismic activity, and differential settlement without transferring damaging stress to adjacent structural components. When expansion joint assemblies fail — through material degradation, improper installation, or physical damage — the consequences include water intrusion, structural cracking, trip hazards, and costly collateral damage to adjacent finishes and systems.
RB Restoration & Waterproofing LLC designs and installs expansion joint systems for walls, floors, roofs, and parking structures across commercial and institutional applications in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. We work with major expansion joint manufacturers including Balco, Inpro, Construction Specialties, and Nystrom to specify assemblies appropriate to the movement range, traffic loading, fire rating, and waterproofing requirements of each joint location.
An expansion joint that is wider or narrower than the design movement range will fail. We verify joint width requirements against structural drawings before specifying assembly sizes.
