White Rock’s towers face Semiahmoo Bay and take salt air and south-west storms head on. We sealed the windows at Foster Martin in uptown White Rock.

Questions from White Rock

Local answers. The general ones are on the questions page.

Does salt air shorten sealant life?

It is the sun, wind and wet together on a south-west elevation that do it. Those walls are the first we check.

Can you work on curved balconies?

Yes. On Foster Martin the balconies curve, so drops were set to follow the slab edge and not a straight line.

Do you clean windows on houses?

Yes. Homes on the hillside often have glazing that a ladder cannot reach safely.

Which parts of White Rock do you cover?

All of it, including Uptown, Marine Drive, East Beach, West Beach and Ocean Park.
