Cumming commercial stucco & EIFS. Property managers, boards, owners & builders.
A first big envelope project needs a clear plan
A lot of the condominium communities around Cumming are young enough that the board has never had to fund a major facade repair. Then the original sealant reaches the end of its life, a few balconies start leaking into the units below, and the reserve study calls for envelope work everyone hoped was years away. Boards need facts they can explain to owners, not a single number on a proposal.
We survey every building: balconies and the walls around them, breezeways and stair towers, window perimeters, roof-to-wall transitions and the base of each wall. Moisture readings and photos are recorded by building and unit stack, and water tests confirm the leak paths owners have reported.
The written scope separates what is letting water in now from what can wait, and prices it in phases the association can fund. We can present findings at a board meeting, help draft owner notices, and coordinate unit access when interior inspection is needed. Then we do the work: substrate repair, sealants, flashing and a recoat that brings the community back to one finish.
Common condominium envelope problems
The conditions condo boards and community managers ask us to look at most often.
Balcony leaks
Water entering at balcony ledgers, railing posts and the joint where the deck meets the wall, often showing in the unit below.
Breezeways & stairwells
Cracked and stained walls in open breezeways and stair towers that see rain, foot traffic and moving day.
Wet sheathing
Sheathing and framing behind stucco or EIFS that has stayed wet at windows, joints and terminations.
Failed sealant joints
Hardened, split sealant at windows, doors, expansion joints and penetrations across every building.
Cracks & base-of-wall damage
Cracking at corners and openings, and deterioration where the wall finish meets paving and grade.
Faded, patched elevations
Years of spot repairs and chalky finishes that make a community look older than it is.
What condo projects usually include
Most association projects combine several of these services, phased by building to fit the budget.
Envelope Inspections
Moisture surveys, water testing and written condition reports for owners, boards, lenders and buyers.

Owner reporting water in a unit?
Call us. A water test usually finds the entry point so the immediate leak can be stopped before the board plans the larger repair.
Communities from downtown to the lake
We work with condominium and townhouse-style associations near downtown Cumming, along the south Forsyth corridors and in the communities toward Lake Lanier.
Mid-rise condominiums near downtown and Cumming City Center share walls, balconies and stair towers that must be repaired as one envelope. Lower-rise associations further out in Forsyth County spread the same details across many buildings, so the repair is about consistency and phasing. Wooded and lake-area sites add shade, mildew and roof debris against walls. In each case, the association documents decide who pays for what, and we write the scope to match them.
Board-ready scopes
Findings and pricing organized by building, stack and phase for board votes and reserve plans.
Balconies and breezeways
The details behind most condo leaks, surveyed and repaired at every unit.
Owner communication
Schedules and notices so owners know when work reaches their building.
