Waterproofing in Coal Harbour

Air & Water Barriers · Deck & Balcony Membranes · Through-Wall Flashing

Nixon Exteriors provides waterproofing in Coal Harbour, serving homeowners and property managers across Coal Harbour Waterfront, Marina Side, Cardero District and surrounding neighbourhoods. We install the membranes, barriers, and flashings that keep rain out of the wall — self-adhered and fluid-applied weather barriers, deck and balcony waterproofing, and through-wall flashing integrated with the cladding and openings. Coal Harbour's direct waterfront location means constant salt-air exposure and maritime winds — which is why the weather-resistive barrier, the flashing, and the deck membranes all have to be continuous and lapped correctly. Windows, doors, and cladding are handled by one accountable crew, with $5M liability coverage and WorkSafeBC compliance on every job.

How We Approach Waterproofing

Continuous Drainage Plane

Water always finds the path of least resistance. We build a continuous, lapped barrier so any moisture behind the cladding drains back out, not into the structure.

Detailed at the Weak Points

Leaks start at openings, decks, and penetrations. We focus on these transitions with sill pans, end dams, and counter-flashing done to spec.

Integrated with Cladding

Because Nixon installs the barrier, the rainscreen, and the cladding, the waterproofing is never compromised by a follow-on trade.

Why does Coal Harbour need waterproofing done to the building envelope standard?
