Define access to concealed waterproofing
For a Rancho Palos Verdes terrace beside landscaped areas, document where water appears and the relationship between the deck, planter and wall. A visible stain alone does not show which assembly needs repair.
Before removing tile or soil, identify the responsible trades and the scope of reinstatement. Some below-grade repairs require access to the exterior side of the wall; excavation, utilities and any structural design must be addressed in the project plan.
Where cracking or movement affects the wall or supporting structure, obtain the necessary professional evaluation before treating the coating as the solution. Confirm property-specific approvals with the City when planning changes to a terrace, retaining wall or grading.

Project questions
Planning your Rancho Palos Verdes repair
Can you waterproof a wall without removing the landscaping?+
Access depends on the wall and the proposed repair. A membrane installed on the soil side may require removal and reinstatement of adjoining landscaping. Those responsibilities need to be confirmed before pricing the complete project.
Is the below-grade membrane the same as the deck finish?+
They perform different roles and may require different products. Below-grade work needs the specified concealed membrane and protection; an exposed walking deck also needs a suitable pedestrian finish.
