Elastomeric Spray Application in Syracuse
Elastomeric spray application is a specialized method for applying a thick, flexible coating to exterior walls, particularly on masonry, stucco, or concrete surfaces common in Syracuse’s older homes and commercial buildings. Unlike standard paint, elastomeric coatings form a durable rubber-like membrane that can bridge hairline cracks, resist water intrusion, and withstand the harsh freeze-thaw cycles that plague Central New York. The process begins with thorough surface preparation — pressure washing, scraping loose paint, and repairing any significant cracks or spalling. A primer may be applied to ensure adhesion, particularly on porous brick or previously painted surfaces. The coating is then sprayed using airless equipment, which allows for even, thick coverage across large expanses and textured surfaces. For most Syracuse properties, two coats are recommended, with careful attention to edges, seams, and areas prone to moisture buildup like window sills and parapet walls.
This approach matters specifically for Syracuse because our climate demands a coating that can expand and contract without cracking. Elastomeric spray application provides a seamless barrier that prevents water from seeping into walls, a major cause of interior damage and mold growth in the region’s older masonry structures. The spray technique also reaches into crevices and uneven surfaces that rollers or brushes might miss, creating a monolithic seal. Whether applied to a historic brick building in Armory Square or a cinder block commercial structure near the Fairgrounds, elastomeric spray offers long-term protection against the snow, ice, and rain that define Syracuse winters. It is not a cosmetic upgrade — it is a functional investment in the building envelope, reducing the need for frequent repainting and costly leak repairs.
