Stopping Water Intrusion Before It Starts
The building envelope is everything that separates the interior from the exterior — roof, walls, balconies, decks, and all the joints and penetrations between them. A single failed flashing or cracked waterproofing membrane can let water travel far from its entry point, causing hidden damage long before it's visible.
We approach waterproofing as an integrated system, not isolated patches. That means addressing the roof-to-wall connections, balcony and deck surfaces, exterior walls, and penetrations together to keep water out.

Why Choose Us
A Building-Science Approach to Roofing & Waterproofing
We treat every project as an engineering problem first — understanding how water moves, how systems age, and how each component fits into the whole building envelope.
Roofing & Waterproofing Under One Roof
Most contractors do one or the other. We handle both, so your roof, balconies, and envelope work together as a unified system.
Powered by a Diamond Certified Company
We are powered by First Tier Exterior, a Diamond Certified company — a credential earned through independent customer satisfaction research.
Diagnostic-First Approach
We find the actual source of a leak, not just the visible symptom. Water travels — accurate diagnosis matters more than a quick patch.
System-Specific Expertise
TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, metal, tile, shingle, and waterproof coatings each require different tools and techniques. We work across all of them.
Responsive Scheduling
Roof leaks and water intrusion don't wait. We prioritize inspections and emergency repairs to limit damage.
Built for San Francisco
We understand Bay Area building types, coastal weather exposure, and local permitting — from Victorians to modern commercial buildings.
Certified
