Hotel Facade Restoration and Hurricane Hardening

On the Caribbean, a hotel facade takes salt spray every day and a hurricane every few years. Spalled balconies, leaking windows, failed roof waterproofing and rusted railings damage rooms, ratings and insurance terms. We restore and harden hotel envelopes floor by floor while the hotel operates.

What We Restore and Harden

Concrete Repair

Impact Glazing

Windows and sliding doors rated for hurricane pressure and debris.

Roof Waterproofing

Membranes, drains and parapets that stop leaks into top floors.

Facade Coatings

Elastomeric and anti-carbonation systems for salt exposure.

Railings

316 stainless and glass railings to current height and load rules.

Storm Readiness

Shutters, anchorage of rooftop equipment and drainage for storm events.

Working from the outside, floor by floor

We use suspended platforms or scaffolding by stack, block rooms in groups, and keep noise within agreed hours. Each drop is inspected, repaired and sealed before moving on, with photo records for owners and insurers.
