The appearance of your building and grounds communicates a lot about your business. A neat, clean look makes clients feel welcome to walk in the front door.

Any concrete surface exposed to the elements will wear down over time, but this is especially true for parking decks (the driving surface of a parking garage) and plaza decks (elevated patios on commercial buildings or shopping malls).

If you own or manage a commercial building, chances are that you have concrete somewhere on the premises. Though concrete is a hard surface, it certainly does not last forever. Age plus environmental factors can play a big part in its deterioration.

Few exteriors are more iconic or evoke feelings of the past than limestone. The look is a combination of artistry and craftsmanship.

Parking garages are more than a place to park a car. They are essential for alleviating traffic congestion and allowing access to area business and organizations.

Siding, stone, or brick—whatever the surface of your building, it will need cleaning at some point. A clean surface enables you to see areas in need of repair and enhances the look of your facility.

Your buildings and the areas surrounding them are some of your biggest investments. Long-term, preventative maintenance is key to sustaining the integrity of the property.


Commercial building maintenance and repair can be a lot to tackle. Depending on the issues you encounter, you can spend large amounts of time and money making repairs.

Summer temperatures continue to climb. Just as the heat takes its toll on people, buildings and structures are impacted by heat as well. Keeping an eye out for effects of sun and heat can help you provide the proper maintenance for your building.

If you’ve ever opened the door to your building and found wet ceilings or water puddled on the floor, you know the panic that can ensue. Especially if your building is historic, where even a small water leak can lead to major repairs.
