Elastomeric Coating Application in Fargo

Elastomeric coating is a thick, flexible wall covering designed to bridge cracks and seal exterior surfaces against moisture intrusion. Unlike standard paints, this coating forms a rubber-like membrane that expands and contracts with temperature changes, making it particularly effective for masonry, stucco, and concrete block walls common in Fargo’s older commercial buildings and newer developments alike. The application process begins with a thorough surface inspection and preparation: all loose paint, dirt, and efflorescence must be removed, and any cracks wider than a hairline require filling with a compatible caulk or patching compound. Once the surface is clean and dry, a primer may be applied to ensure adhesion, followed by two coats of elastomeric coating applied by roller or sprayer. Each coat must be applied at the manufacturer’s recommended thickness—typically 15 to 20 mils wet film thickness—to achieve the full waterproofing and UV resistance benefits.

For Fargo properties, elastomeric coating is not a cosmetic upgrade but a structural safeguard. The region’s freeze-thaw cycles cause concrete and masonry to expand and contract, leading to hairline cracks that allow water to seep into walls. Over time, this moisture can cause spalling, mold growth, and insulation damage. A properly applied elastomeric coating seals those cracks while still allowing the wall to breathe, preventing trapped moisture from causing interior damage. This makes it an ideal solution for warehouse exteriors, retail storefronts, and apartment buildings where maintaining a dry envelope is critical. The coating also reflects UV rays, reducing heat absorption and potentially lowering cooling costs during Fargo’s summer months. Unlike standard paint that may peel or chalk within a few years, elastomeric coatings typically last 10 to 15 years when applied correctly, making them a cost-effective investment for property owners seeking long-term protection.
