Newport homes take more weather
Salt air, sun and wind off the water wear down coatings, flashing and metal faster here than a few miles inland. On the Peninsula, Balboa Island and in Corona del Mar, a lot of homes have balconies and roof decks over living space, which means the waterproofing has to hold, not just look good.
We’ve worked in Newport for decades. Our shop is ten minutes away in Costa Mesa.
What we do in Newport Beach
Balconies & Roof Decks
Waterproofing systems for decks over living space, with the thresholds, drains and railing posts flashed properly. That is where coastal decks fail first.
Roofing
Tile, shingle and flat roof repair, inspections and replacements, including the flat and low-slope roofs common on beach homes.
Coatings
Recoats before the coating wears through, so you’re maintaining a deck instead of rebuilding one.
What salt air does to a deck
Near the water, the coating usually isn’t the first thing to go. It’s the metal: railing posts, fasteners, flashing and drain fittings. When they rust, they swell and crack the waterproofing around them, and water gets into the framing.
On every coastal job we check the metal and the connections, not just the surface, and we use materials meant for salt air.
We don’t build on bad bones.We’d rather lose a bid than put new work on top of an old problem.

Questions we hear in Newport Beach
How often should a deck near the beach be recoated?
It depends on sun, foot traffic and the system on it. Near the water we’d rather look at it every few years than wait for a leak. We’ll tell you honestly whether it needs work yet.
Can you waterproof a roof deck over a bedroom?
Yes. It’s one of the most common jobs we do in Newport. The key is the drains, the door threshold and the slope, so water leaves the deck instead of sitting on it.
Do you work in HOA communities?
Yes. Plenty of Newport homes are in an HOA, and we’re used to working with boards and property managers alongside the homeowner.
Do you charge for estimates?
No. Estimates are free, in writing, after we have looked at the job.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Crank Waterproofing is a licensed California contractor, CA License #1038420.
