Innovative Engineering Inc. Helps Building Owners with Winter Maintenance

ATLANTA - EntSun -- Is your parking structure prepared for winter and year-round durability?

Proper parking structure maintenance is essential to prevent costly damage, extend service life, and ensure safety throughout the seasons.

Parking garages face constant exposure to weather, traffic, and harsh deicing chemicals that accelerate deterioration. A proactive, comprehensive maintenance program is the best defense against expensive repairs, structural failures, and operational disruptions.

Surface Integrity and Waterproofing: Regularly inspect parking decks for surface wear, cracking, and delamination. Patch distressed areas with compatible materials and maintain protective coatings or waterproof membranes designed for heavy traffic and exposure. Advanced waterproofing technologies such as liquid-applied membranes and cementitious coatings have become industry standards for sustained protection.
