A Los Angeles waterproofing contractor built the old-fashioned way.

Family-owned, employee-installed, and focused on one thing — keeping commercial buildings watertight so their owners can sleep at night.

Imperplak Solutions crew
Our Story

From one van to a full-service commercial contractor.

Imperplak Solutions was founded in 2014 by Moses Delacruz after fifteen years in the field as a foreman and estimator for larger regional restoration firms. Moses grew up in East LA, learned the trade from his uncle on residential re-roofs, and moved into commercial coatings and waterproofing in his early twenties.

The shop opened with one van, one crew, and one rule: every job leaves photo-documented, warrantied, and behind a written scope. Twelve years later that rule hasn't changed — we've just added more crews, more equipment, and a proper office off Gerhart Ave in East LA.

Today Imperplak crews coat several million square feet of commercial roof, deck, and floor per year for property managers, general contractors, and industrial owners across Southern California.

How we operate

The way we run the business.

Self-performed labor

Every waterproofing, coating, and sealant scope is installed by W-2 Imperplak employees. No day labor. Foremen are OSHA-30 certified and manufacturer-trained on the specific systems they install.

Written scopes, no allowances

The proposal you sign specifies substrate prep, named product, mil thickness, warranty target, and unit prices for anything unforeseen. If we hit something unexpected, you'll see a change order with a photo and a number — not a surprise on the invoice.

Photo documentation, every day

Every crew closes each shift with a photo log — substrate condition, mock-ups, wet-mil readings, warranty seams. That log becomes part of your closeout package and lives in our project archive.

Manufacturer relationships

We're an approved applicator for GE / Momentive silicones, GAF cool roof coatings, Sika, Tremco, Neogard, and Henry. That approval is what lets us issue the NDL warranties owners actually value.

Bilingual by design

Our estimators, foremen, and office staff work in English and Spanish. It's non-negotiable for us because it's non-negotiable on the jobsites where we spend our days.

Insurance built for our clients

$2M general liability, $5M excess, workers' comp with waiver of subrogation available, and additional-insured endorsements on request. Our COI turnaround is same-day for existing clients.

Moses Delacruz

Founder & Owner

Moses has spent his entire career in the roofing and waterproofing trades, starting as an apprentice at 19 and working his way through every role from applicator to foreman to estimator before founding Imperplak Solutions in 2014. He personally reviews every proposal over $50,000 and is on-site for the first day of every major project. When he's not on a roof, he coaches his sons' baseball team in Boyle Heights.

Common questions

Things owners and PMs ask us before hiring.

Do you work on single-family residential?

No. We're a commercial-only contractor. Our insurance, paperwork, equipment, and crew sizes are all built around commercial and multifamily work — trying to do a single-family re-roof for you would waste your money and ours.

How long is a typical proposal turnaround?

Most commercial proposals are back within five business days of the walk. For urgent leak response or emergency scopes we can turn a same-day scope and price.

Do you provide manufacturer warranties?

Yes, on every qualifying system. We are approved applicators for GE / Momentive, GAF, Sika, Tremco, Neogard, and Henry. Warranty terms range from 10 to 20 years depending on system and mil thickness.

Are you licensed and insured in California?

Yes. We hold an active CSLB license, carry $2M general liability with a $5M excess policy, and provide workers' compensation with waiver of subrogation on request. COIs are available same-day.

Can you handle prevailing-wage public work?

Yes. We are DIR-registered in California and file certified payroll through eCPR for every prevailing-wage project.
