Company history
Dennis and Donna Blanchard founded Blanchard Caulking & Coating, Inc. in 1996. At the time, Dennis had over a decade of experience in the waterproofing field, including serving as VP of operations for another waterproofing company in Jacksonville, FL. He knew he could use the knowledge he’d gained to provide excellent service and decided to venture on his own.
When Blanchard began, we had only three waterproofing applicators in the field. Though we started small, one of the first large jobs we performed was renovations to the expansion joints at the Jacksonville Jaguars football stadium. Dennis went on to build relationships with major local clients such as JEA, Amelia Island Management, and other commercial and condominium property managers.
Blanchard Caulking & Coating Today
In 2023, Dennis and Donna’s son, Jeremy Blanchard, acquired the family business. Jeremy has over 20 years of experience in the industry and has worked full-time at Blanchard since 2005. Over the years, he worked his way through the business from manual laborer to project manager, to VP of operations to owner and CEO.
We continue to be a family owned business you can count on and trust. Dennis is still active in the company and is helping to guide us with his invaluable 40 years of experience. Our commitment to providing high-quality service while solving water intrusion issues remains strong as it has for nearly 30 years.

Respect for Clients and Communication Core Values
Blanchard’s core values are based on mutual respect for the buildings and condominium homes we work on. We pride ourselves on treating our clients’ restorations like they are our buildings — not just another project.
We are sensitive to the many factors that come along with a large project, and we try to minimize any disruptions to our client’s business or lifestyle. In order to create a positive experience, we communicate important details consistently and honestly throughout the process, from the planning phase, to the project management phase, to the close out and punch list phase.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to communicate with our clients throughout the process of performing our job so effectively that the people we work for feel a sense of security, comfort and pleasure doing business with our company.
HEAR FROM OUR GRATEFUL CLIENTS
[Blanchard’s] work on the restoration of a rather shabby exterior has been outstanding and has returned [11 East Forsyth] to its original elegance. As a tax act project, I, as administrator of that program for the State of Florida, am extremely happy with the outcome of your efforts. Thanks for the extra effort to make this project one of the best.

John Delaney
I have been working with the Blanchards for years. I’m grateful for their professional work. But beyond the work, I appreciate all the Blanchards do for the commercial waterproofing industry and for the City of Jacksonville.
Ken Duncan
I have relied on the Blanchard family many times over the years to stop water leaks and waterproof the condominiums I manage. They have always done an excellent job. I don’t know of a more professional company in the coatings industry!
Wynn Fendig
We had Blanchard coat the walls and waterproof the decks of our hotel. It was a complicated job – scheduling and access were real challenges. Blanchard was flexible and stayed to the schedule, so everyone was happy. They are a great family to work with.
Norman Rowland
On the projects I’ve managed, I have observed Blanchard’s commitment to going the extra mile for their clients. I have witnessed them go above and beyond the call of duty to make sure the job is done right.
