Los Angeles experiences heavy sunlight, sometimes intense rain, and pollution. Without proper waterproofing and maintenance, roofs can degrade quickly. Here’s why roofing and waterproofing go hand-in-hand—and what we offer at Advance Roof Restoration & Waterproofing, Inc.
Why Waterproofing Matters
Without strong barriers, even flat or sloped roofs can develop leaks—leading to structural, electrical, and insulation damage. Superior waterproofing helps prevent these issues early, reducing repairs in the future.
Integration with Roof Restoration
Our restoration process always incorporates waterproofing: cleaning, sealing, coating, and drainage improvements are applied comprehensively to prevent leaks and water infiltration.
Waterproofing Techniques We Use
- Elastomeric sealants and membranes for flat roofs.
- Flashing reinforcement around penetrations (vents, HVAC, chimneys).
- Waterproof coatings for tile, shingle, or metal roofs.
- Drainage and slope correction to avoid ponding.
Addressing LA Specifics
LA’s occasional heavy rains and UV exposure demand materials that withstand both water and sun. That’s why we use industry‑rated waterproof coatings designed for local weather patterns.
Combining Benefits
- Leak prevention: Robust waterproofing protects key weak points.
- Energy savings: Reflective waterproof coatings reduce solar gain.
- Enhanced durability: Waterproof layers protect roof substrates from UV, moisture, and cracking.
Benefits for Residential and Commercial Clients
Both homeowners and businesses benefit from waterproofed coatings that save energy, protect interiors, and extend roof lifespan.
Compliance & Efficiency
Improved waterproofing helps properties meet California’s Title 24 energy codes and local building standards—particularly important for commercial tenants and operations
Our Workflow for Waterproofed Restoration
- Inspect roof structure & drainage
- Clean and prep surfaces
- Repair flashing, seal joints/leaks
- Apply waterproof and reflective coatings
- Final inspection & client reporting
Real-World Example
A commercial office building experienced roof pooling and leaks after seasonal rains. We addressed slope issues, added drainage channels, sealed vulnerable seams, and applied waterproof coating. Result: no water infiltration, improved energy profile, and a 10‑year warranty.
