What types of waterproofing coatings do you apply?

We apply silicone, acrylic, polyurethane, and elastomeric roof coatings depending on the substrate, exposure conditions, and performance goals. Silicone coatings are ideal for ponding water conditions, acrylics provide excellent UV protection and reflectivity, and polyurethanes offer superior adhesion and abrasion resistance.

Can a roof coating replace a full roof replacement?

If the existing roof membrane and insulation are in sound condition without widespread moisture damage, a coating system can restore waterproofing and extend the roof's life by 10-20 years. However, if the existing system has failed -- with saturated insulation, delamination, or structural damage -- replacement is the better investment. Our assessment will determine which approach is right for your building.

How long does roof waterproofing last in Miami?

High-quality silicone and elastomeric coatings typically last 10-20 years in Miami's climate depending on the product, mil thickness, and maintenance. Many coating manufacturers offer renewable warranties, meaning you can re-coat at the warranty expiration to extend coverage indefinitely.

Do you waterproof balconies and terraces?

Yes. Balcony and terrace waterproofing is a critical service in Miami, where water intrusion through elevated decks can cause extensive damage to the units below. We use traffic-rated waterproofing membranes designed to withstand foot traffic, furniture, and planters while keeping water out.

Is waterproofing the same as roof coating?

Roof coatings are one type of waterproofing, but waterproofing is a broader category that also includes sheet membranes, fluid-applied membranes, cementitious coatings, and below-grade drainage systems. The right waterproofing approach depends on the specific application and substrate.

How much does roof waterproofing cost in Miami?

Roof coating systems in Miami typically range from $3 to $7 per square foot depending on the coating type, mil thickness, number of coats, and surface preparation required. For a 10,000 square foot commercial roof, expect $30,000 to $70,000. This is significantly less than full roof replacement while delivering comparable waterproofing performance.

Can you waterproof while my building is occupied?

Yes. Most waterproofing coatings are water-based, low-VOC, and low-odor, making them safe to apply over occupied spaces. We schedule work in phases to minimize disruption and ensure proper ventilation throughout the process.

Does waterproofing help with energy efficiency?

Absolutely. Reflective waterproofing coatings -- particularly white silicone and elastomeric products -- significantly reduce solar heat absorption. Building owners in Miami commonly see cooling cost reductions of 10-30% after applying a reflective roof coating, while also gaining waterproofing protection.

Waterproofing Services in Miami & South Florida

Miami receives an average of 62 inches of rain annually, much of it in intense tropical downpours that test every inch of your building's envelope. Waterproofing is not a luxury in South Florida -- it is a necessity. Extreme Roofing Inc. provides comprehensive waterproofing services for roofs, walls, decks, balconies, planters, and below-grade structures throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.

Our waterproofing division applies elastomeric coatings, silicone roof coatings, acrylic coatings, fluid-applied membranes, and sheet-applied waterproofing systems from industry-leading manufacturers. For existing flat roofs in good structural condition, a high-performance coating system can restore waterproofing integrity, improve energy efficiency, and extend the roof's service life by 10-20 years -- often at 50-70% of the cost of a full replacement.

Beyond rooftop applications, we waterproof parking decks, plaza decks over occupied spaces, balcony and terrace surfaces, planter boxes, mechanical room floors, and exterior wall systems. Every waterproofing project begins with a thorough moisture assessment and ends with documented testing to verify that the completed system is performing as specified. In a city surrounded by water and drenched by tropical storms, you need a waterproofing contractor you can trust -- and Extreme Roofing has been that partner for Miami property owners since 2004.

Our Process

A straightforward, transparent process from start to finish -- no surprises.

Moisture Assessment

We evaluate the existing surface with visual inspection, moisture meters, core sampling, or infrared scanning to map moisture intrusion and assess substrate condition.

Surface Preparation

The substrate is cleaned, repaired, and primed as required. Proper surface preparation is the single most important factor in coating adhesion and longevity.

Waterproofing Application

The specified coating or membrane system is applied in multiple passes to achieve the required dry film thickness, with reinforcing fabric at details and transitions.
