PARKING GARAGE
REPAIR & MAINTENANCE
IN FRISCO, TX.
The Star opened in August 2016 — it's approaching its 10-year mark, the standard inspection interval for parking structure joint sealant replacement and waterproofing membrane assessment on Class A facilities. HALL Park's earliest buildings are already past 15 years. Frisco's Class A parking structures are entering first major maintenance cycles, and the June 2023 hail storms that drove $7-10 billion in regional insured losses accelerated the timeline.
What Parking Garage Repair Includes
Comprehensive structural repair and waterproofing for parking structures — from spalled decks to failed expansion joints.
Structural Concrete Repair
Spalled and delaminated concrete exposes rebar and post-tension cables to chloride attack. We remove unsound concrete to a sound substrate, treat exposed reinforcement, and restore the section using polymer-modified cementitious mortars matched to the existing concrete's strength and porosity.
In Frisco's Class A parking structures, first-generation spalls are often localized but their appearance alone signals deferred maintenance to corporate tenants. Early-stage repair is dramatically less expensive than the comprehensive removal required when chloride penetration reaches embedded cables — and protects the premium positioning of the facility.
Expansion Joint Replacement
Parking structure expansion joints are the most common water intrusion point in multi-level decks. Failed compression seals, cracked nosing assemblies, and deteriorated sealant allow water and chlorides to migrate directly to the slab edge and level below, accelerating corrosion of embedded steel.
Frisco's Collin County location places structures in a documented hail corridor — 2.75-inch hailstones struck in April 2024, and the June 2023 regional storms generated $7-10 billion in insured losses. Hail impacts accelerate seal deterioration at existing joint assemblies. We specify replacement seals to handle both thermal movement and storm event stress.
Traffic-Bearing Waterproofing
Parking deck waterproofing must withstand repeated vehicle loads while maintaining a continuous moisture barrier. We install reinforced traffic-bearing membrane systems with an integral wear course — systems rated for the specific traffic volume and vehicle types using the structure.
The Star (opened 2016), HALL Park (earliest buildings 2008-2010), and Frisco Station structures are entering their first major waterproofing cycle. We specify systems with third-party performance data in comparable North Texas conditions, addressing slope and drain detailing simultaneously to eliminate ponding that accelerates membrane failure.
Post-Tension Cable Inspection & Repair
Post-tensioned parking structures require specialized inspection protocols to identify corroded or broken tendons before they cause failures. Signs include anchor pocket corrosion, rust staining on soffits, and unusual slab cracking patterns distinct from standard shrinkage cracks.
We inspect anchor pockets, grout tubes, and tendon profiles, coordinating with structural engineers when cable repair or supplemental reinforcement is required. All findings are documented for owner records, lender reporting, and insurance submission following storm events — a necessary step for facilities with institutional-grade reporting requirements.

Why Frisco Parking Structures Need Specialist Repair Now
Frisco grew 500 percent from 2000 to 2020, producing a large volume of Class A commercial parking structures built between 2005 and 2015. Those structures are now entering their first major maintenance window simultaneously — curtain wall re-caulking, joint sealant replacement, and waterproofing membrane assessment are due across much of the city's commercial portfolio at the same time.
The June 2023 DFW hail storms produced $7-10 billion in insured losses — with hail accounting for 95 percent of that damage. For Frisco's glass-curtain-wall and EIFS-clad parking structures in HALL Park and The Star, post-storm inspection and re-sealing is not optional maintenance but an underwriting and tenant-relations necessity. Structures not yet inspected carry compounding risk with each subsequent event.
As new competing buildings continue delivering in Fields, Frisco Station, and The Star expansions, existing property owners face pressure to maintain Class A standards. A parking structure with stained decks, failed joints, or visible spalls signals deferred maintenance that directly affects tenant retention decisions. Griffin Restoration provides the documentation and physical repair quality that institutional owners require.

Parking Garage Repair FAQ
What types of repairs do parking garages typically need?
Parking structures in Frisco typically need curtain wall re-caulking at envelope penetrations, traffic-bearing waterproofing membrane inspection and repair, expansion joint sealant replacement, and post-tension cable inspection. Frisco's median year built of 2009 means HALL Park's earliest Class A buildings and The Star's parking structures are now 15-plus years old — the standard trigger point for sealant replacement, joint inspection, and first waterproofing membrane cycles on high-profile commercial facilities. The June 2023 DFW hail storms produced $7-10 billion in insured losses, and structures not yet inspected may have undetected membrane damage.
How do you repair expansion joints in a parking structure?
Expansion joint repair begins with full removal of the failed compression seal or nosing assembly, cleaning the joint substrate, and installing a new heavy-duty seal rated for vehicular traffic. For Frisco's Class A parking structures at The Star, HALL Park, and Frisco Station, expansion joint specifications must match the original design intent — we source commercial-grade seals that meet the architectural standards these properties maintain. Frisco's Collin County location also places it in a hail corridor where 2.75-inch hailstones (recorded April 2024) can accelerate existing joint seal failures.
What is traffic-bearing waterproofing for parking garages?
Traffic-bearing waterproofing is a reinforced membrane system applied to parking deck surfaces that withstands vehicle loads while preventing water and chloride intrusion into the structural slab below. Unlike standard waterproofing coatings, these systems include a wear course tough enough for repeated tire contact. The Star, which opened in August 2016 on 91 acres at a cost of $255 million, is approaching its 10-year mark — the standard inspection interval for curtain wall re-caulking, joint sealant replacement, and facade waterproofing on high-profile Class A facilities.
Can parking garage repairs be done without closing levels to traffic?
Yes. We work level-by-level, keeping unaffected areas of the structure open while we complete repairs on each section. For Frisco's Class A campuses at The Star, HALL Park, and Frisco Station — where corporate tenants including Keurig Dr Pepper, TIAA, and T-Mobile require seamless operations — maintaining parking access continuity is non-negotiable. We coordinate all work sequences with property management to avoid conflicts with high-visibility events and campus operating hours.
How do you prioritize repairs on an aging parking structure?
We start with a condition survey mapping delaminations, visible spalls, joint failures, drainage problems, and any signs of post-tension cable distress. Repairs are prioritized by structural risk before cosmetic or preventive work. In Frisco's market — where owners face pressure to maintain Class A standards as competing buildings deliver in Fields, Frisco Station, and The Star expansions — the condition survey also provides documentation for lender reporting, insurance claims following hail events, and capital expenditure planning. We document all findings and establish inspection intervals appropriate to each structure's age and exposure.
