Challenge
The original waterproofing at Ridgely Condominiums had failed, causing some water to enter the building and degrade concrete elements. The building’s façade was also dirty and weathered and in need of a fresh look.
Using highly trained field personnel and a full support staff, Valcourt provided extensive restoration services for Ridgely Condominiums. Intricate restoration work for this high rise included many aspects of waterproofing, including window cleaning and facade caulking, concrete deck repairs, rebuilding concrete corners on balconies, new balcony deck coatings, rail post pocket repairs, EIFS repairs, and new façade coating.
Solution
The success of a large, full restoration project like Ridgely Condominiums reflects the excellent working relationship, communication, and coordination between Valcourt Building Services’ management team, the building owners, and the onsite engineering staff.
The sheer presence of Valcourt technicians working outside of individual condominium units and the scope of the repairs required a carefully planned schedule of repair work that was communicated to tenants on a real-time basis to keep them informed. The building restora- tion was completed with a high degree of satisfaction from both the condominium board and the individual unit owners of Ridgely Condominiums.
