Waterproofing Services in
West Palm Beach

From historic homes in Flamingo Park to downtown condos along Flagler Drive and commercial buildings throughout the city, we waterproof West Palm Beach exteriors against South Florida's demanding climate.

Waterproofing in West Palm Beach — Every Property Type

West Palm Beach's diversity of property types means a wide range of waterproofing challenges. Historic bungalows in El Cid and Flamingo Park have aged stucco with decades of crack accumulation. Downtown condos and mid-rises have complex perimeter details and balcony-to-wall transitions. Commercial buildings have flat roof edges, parapet walls, and high-traffic facades that require durable protective coatings.

Jacobs & Gallucci has worked across all of these property types in West Palm Beach for over 25 years. We bring the same thoroughness to a historic home crack sealing job as we do to a commercial building elastomeric recoat. Every assessment is detailed, every penetration point is addressed.

West Palm Beach's proximity to the Intracoastal and the Atlantic also means elevated salt air exposure in many areas — a factor that accelerates coating deterioration and requires products specifically rated for coastal conditions.

How We Work

Our Waterproofing Process

All identified cracks are cleaned and filled with elastomeric caulk or patching compound appropriate to the substrate.

03

All window frames, door perimeters, utility penetrations, parapet edges, and transitions are thoroughly sealed.

Common Questions

Waterproofing FAQ — West Palm Beach

We waterproof residential homes, historic properties, condos, multi-unit buildings, and commercial properties throughout West Palm Beach. Each property type has its own waterproofing requirements and we assess each one individually before recommending a scope of work.

Yes. Historic neighborhoods like Flamingo Park, El Cid, and Grandview Heights have homes with older stucco that requires careful assessment and appropriate products. We understand the specific challenges of older construction and use compatible materials that protect without damaging historic surfaces.

Yes. We waterproof office buildings, retail spaces, and commercial properties throughout West Palm Beach. Commercial waterproofing often includes parapet wall sealing, flat roof edge treatment, and large-area elastomeric coating application. We work around your schedule to minimize business disruption.

Properties near the Intracoastal or the coast experience accelerated coating deterioration from salt air. Salt crystals are corrosive to paint films and can work into cracks, widening them over time. We use products specifically rated for coastal environments and pay extra attention to perimeter sealing on properties with significant salt air exposure.

Yes. For most West Palm Beach properties, waterproof crack sealing and primer are part of the standard exterior painting preparation. For properties needing full elastomeric membrane protection, the coating serves as both the waterproofing layer and the finish coat.
