PWB Masonry and Construction | Masonry/Concrete & Roofing in Burlington, MA 01803

Proper moisture control installation creates a critical barrier in your attic and roof assembly. By regulating temperature and humidity, it helps prevent the uneven melting and refreezing of snow that leads to ice dams. This protects your roof deck, shingles, and interior from the water backup and leaks that are common in our Massachusetts winters.

Absolutely. Chimney flashing leaks are a frequent issue for Burlington homes. This is precisely the type of targeted waterproofing repair we specialize in. We inspect the existing flashing, sealant, and masonry, then perform a precise repair or replacement using durable, weather-resistant materials to create a watertight seal that withstands New England's rain, snow, and wind.

A comprehensive waterproofing installation starts with excavating to expose the foundation walls. We then clean and repair the masonry, apply a high-grade membrane or coating system, install proper drainage like footing drains, and often include a dimple board for added protection. This full-system approach is crucial in our area to manage groundwater and prevent basement moisture, which can worsen other issues like ice dams by increasing indoor humidity.
