Balcony & deck waterproofing that keeps water where it belongs.

Fluid-applied waterproofing for balconies, decks, walkways, and concrete surfaces across South Florida — sealed, reinforced at every joint and corner, and water-tested before the tile or finish goes back down.

Waterproofing

Stop water damage before it starts

In South Florida, a balcony or deck takes a beating — relentless sun, driving rain, and standing water all working to find a way through the slab. Once water gets into a crack, it travels into the structure: corroding rebar, rotting framing, and staining the ceilings of the rooms below.

We waterproof the surface with a fluid-applied membrane that bonds directly to the concrete and cures into one continuous, seamless barrier — no seams or laps for water to sneak past. Every crack gets treated, every wall edge and corner gets reinforced, and the surface is water-tested before any tile or wear coat goes back down.

Why Choose Hunter

Licensed general contractor

We’re a Florida-licensed construction company, so the same crew that waterproofs your balcony can rebuild whatever has to come up — tile, edges, and finishes included.

Fluid-applied systems

We use professional fluid-applied membranes built for foot traffic, ponding water, and Florida sun — bonded to the slab as one seamless layer instead of sheets that can lift at the seams.

Tested before we close it up

Before any finish goes back down, we water-test the membrane so we know it holds — not hope it does once it’s buried under tile.

Our Simple Process

Three steps from first call to a watertight surface.

1

Inspect & assess

We come out, find where water is getting in, and check the slope, cracks, and any damage underneath before quoting anything.

2

Prep, prime & treat

We clean and profile the surface, rout and fill the cracks, prime the slab, and reinforce every corner, drain, and wall edge where leaks start.

3

Membrane, test & finish

We apply the fluid-applied membrane in full coats, water-test it to confirm it holds, then reinstall tile or a wear coat so it’s ready to use.

On the job

Surface prep on a recent balcony job

Before any membrane goes down, the deck gets ground back to sound concrete and every wall edge and corner gets cleaned up — that’s what makes the waterproofing bond and hold.

Questions

What can you waterproof?
Balconies, decks, patios, walkways and breezeways, second-floor and rooftop decks, pool decks, planters, and concrete surfaces in general. If water is getting through a slab — or you’re putting tile over one — it should be waterproofed first.
What is a fluid-applied membrane?
It’s a liquid waterproofing coating rolled or sprayed onto the concrete that cures into a single continuous, rubber-like layer bonded to the slab. Because there are no seams or overlaps, there’s nowhere for water to work its way underneath the way it can with sheet products.
Do I have to remove the tile on my balcony?
Usually, yes. To waterproof properly the membrane has to bond to the structural slab, so existing tile and the old setting bed generally come up first. We’ll confirm exactly what’s needed when we inspect, and we can reinstall tile or a wear coat once the membrane is down and tested.
How do I know my balcony needs waterproofing?
Common signs are stains or drips on the ceiling below, white chalky residue (efflorescence) or rust streaks on the underside, cracked or loose tile, and water that sits and won’t drain. Even without obvious leaks, a balcony with no working waterproofing is on borrowed time in our climate.
Do you do the repairs underneath too?
Yes. Because we’re a licensed general contractor, if water has already damaged the slab edge, framing, or the ceiling below, we can handle that build-back as part of the project instead of leaving you to find another contractor.
