What Mark Beamish Waterproofing does

Mark Beamish Waterproofing (MBW) is a privately held, family-owned specialty trade subcontractor founded in 1981 in Anaheim, California, and now headquartered in Irvine. The company provides commercial waterproofing, caulking and sealants, elastomeric membrane systems, painting, concrete coatings, and decorative concrete floor finishing for new construction and renovation projects across the West Coast. It is licensed as a contractor in California (CSLB #650346), Nevada, Arizona (ROC #225296), and Hawaii, and reports annual operational throughput of approximately 2.5 million square feet waterproofed, 1 million lineal feet caulked, and 4 million square feet of concrete floors polished/stained/coated.

MBW's core technology is conventional specialty-trade construction, centered on licensed application of waterproofing and coating systems produced by leading manufacturers, augmented by acquired capabilities in decorative concrete (Seal Rite Coatings, 2006) and concrete coatings (Concrete Maintenance Systems, 2007). The company operates through six offices across California and Arizona and serves general contractors, building owners, property managers, and commercial real estate developers with project-based B2B engagements. Customers span retail (Amazon, Home Depot, Target, Walmart, IKEA, CVS, Walgreens), automotive dealerships (Mercedes, BMW, Audi), hospitality and entertainment (Disneyland Resort, Marriott), higher education (UCLA, USC), defense and aerospace (Camp Pendleton, Northrop, Boeing), and healthcare (DaVita).

The business model is project-based specialty subcontracting: revenue is generated through competitive bids and direct negotiation with general contractors and building owners, with pricing determined by the scope, scale, and specifications of each contract. MBW does not sell through intermediaries or distribution channels; all work is sourced via direct enterprise relationships, referrals, and responses to RFQs from general contractors. The company emphasizes responsiveness, an 'A-Team' field workforce, and family-led values under second-generation president Adam Beamish, who assumed leadership in 2009, and reports a customer NPS of 70, benchmarked internally against consumer brands such as Amazon (69), Apple (76), and Costco (78).

Direct peers

• Western Specialty Contractors: National building envelope and restoration contractor offering waterproofing, caulking/sealant, masonry, and specialty coating services to general contractors and building owners. Closest like-for-like peer to MBW with similar service mix but broader geographic reach across the Midwest, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic.
• Tecta America Corporation: Largest commercial roofing contractor in the United States, offering roofing, waterproofing, and building envelope services through a network of regional subsidiaries. Highly comparable to MBW in core waterproofing/sealant application services but with significantly greater scale and geographic footprint.
• Baker Roofing Company: Mid-Atlantic and Southeast-based commercial roofing and waterproofing contractor serving general contractors and building owners on commercial, institutional, and multi-family projects. Similar specialty trade subcontracting model with comparable service offering (roofing, coatings, sealants).
• Bone Dry Roofing: Multi-state roofing and waterproofing contractor serving residential, commercial, and industrial customers with roofing, masonry sealing, and moisture protection services. Operates as a specialty subcontractor with comparable business model to MBW, though with broader geographic distribution across the Midwest and Southeast.
• Nations Roof: National commercial roofing and waterproofing contractor serving general contractors and property owners across the United States. Direct peer with overlapping capabilities in waterproofing, coatings, and sealants, though focused primarily on roofing rather than full building envelope services.

Broad incumbents

• The Garland Company: Cleveland-based manufacturer and applicator of high-performance roofing, waterproofing, and building envelope systems. Both a product manufacturer and approved applicator (Garland-approved contractors), making it a broader incumbent that competes with MBW on the application side while also supplying some of the materials MBW installs.
• Tremco Incorporated: Major manufacturer of sealants, waterproofing membranes, roofing systems, and building envelope solutions, with an applicator subsidiary (Weatherproofing Technologies Inc./WTI) that directly competes with MBW. Tremco is a broad incumbent offering both the materials MBW uses and turnkey installation services.
• Sika Corporation: US subsidiary of global construction chemicals manufacturer Sika AG, producing sealants, waterproofing systems, concrete coatings, and flooring solutions. As one of the "world's leading producers" whose systems MBW is licensed to apply, Sika is both an indirect supplier relationship and a competitive threat via its own applicator network.
