Knollmeyer Building Corp offers expert waterproofing services to protect Boston’s parking garages from severe weather and ensure long-term structural integrity.
The most common causes of parking garage degradation include water intrusion, freeze-thaw damage, and corrosion of reinforcing steel—all of which, if ignored, can result in costly repairs.
Knollmeyer uses the latest waterproofing systems designed to prevent damage before it occurs. We partner with residential associations, commercial developers, public agencies, and property managers to assess vulnerabilities and design custom waterproofing solutions.
From deck coatings and joint seals to below-grade barriers and upgraded drainage systems, every solution we install is engineered to withstand Boston’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles and urban stressors.
Why Waterproofing Your Garage Is Essential ?
Parking garages are constantly exposed to rain, snow, de-icing salts, vehicle fluids, and thermal cycling. Without protection, water penetrates slabs and support structures, leading to:
- Corrosion of internal steel reinforcement
- Cracking, spalling, and delamination of concrete
- Failure of sealants and expansion joints
- Structural risk and expensive repairs
- Hazards for pedestrians and vehicles
As noted by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), periodic maintenance and professional waterproofing extend the life and performance of concrete parking garages.

FAQs
How often should a garage be waterproofed?
Depending on conditions, a full waterproofing system lasts 5–15 years and should be inspected annually.
Can you work while the garage is in use?
Yes. We schedule work in phases, maintaining partial access for users.
Does waterproofing stop all leaks immediately?
Once cured, our systems protect against deck-level leaks. Major leaks may require additional drainage or concrete repair.
