Waterproof Flexible Mining?
Waterproof Flexible Mining? I know it sounds weird. Perhaps it is a stretch for a catchy sounding post. Recently Prestige Deck Coating headed out to Miners Trail in Chino Hills to install our custom Flex deck waterproofing system. Waterproof flexible mining. We combine 40+ years of experience with custom customer care and industry grade products to exhibit flexibility, expertise and watertight delivery!Waterproof
At Prestige Deck Coating, we do waterproof. Plain and simple. Like a miner plumbing the depths to find that one nugget of gold, we stop at nothing to make your decking definitive.
We have two basic types of waterproof coatings we apply to ensure a long lasting, aesthetically pleasing, sealed deck surface.
Crete Decking System. This five layer deck repair system is meant to go over plywood surfaces. Most decks have a wood foundation, so this system is our go to. If you have a balcony, stair, or walkway deck, this is your best bet. This is used over new decks and well as surfaces with damaged sub-floors.Flex System. This particular job in Chino Hills had a deck with an existing deck coating system, but did not have dry rot or other structural damage. It can be applied over decks in good shape that need an slight overhaul. It is applied over existing concrete surfaces, whether a slightly deteriorating decking or a pool deck. Think of this as half of our Crete System.
The installation process is as follows:

Hunting Leaky Deck in Coto de Caza
Coto de Caza in Orange County Ca is out in the country. It is a prime place for hunting ducks and leaky deck. Yes, leaky decks. with a combination of hot summers and wet, rainy winters, this beautiful area can wreak havoc like a hunter's 12 gauge! Enter your Orange County seasoned deck repair expert, Prestige Deck Coating.Hunting Leaky Deck
We recently traveled to Hunter street in Coto de Caza, and crept upon a leaky deck, scoring a direct hit! This gorgeous home was not immune to aforementioned harsh weather conditions.
Coating Removal. We first had to remove the previous deck coating to ascertain the damage underneath. This is truly the only way to approach deck repair. Sometimes, the deck structure is only rotted in one area, sometimes it is pervasive. In the rare case, it actually seeps into the foundation. Prestige can help either way. We are not only deck waterproofing specialists, but deck repair experts. Thankfully, our keen hunting eye found no more than a worn decking surface, with the plywood sub floor intact.Crete System. Once the leaky deck takes a dive, we are ready to send in the dogs to deck out your decking! Our time tested, on the site developed deck coatings system is applied. Our Crete Decking System is a five layer, six level waterproof repair masterpiece.
1) First, we staple down 2.5 lb. diamond shaped metal lathe to the securely flashed perimeter
2) Second, we trowel down polymer modified concrete to bond, strengthen, and give flex to the deck sub floor
3) Third, we roll out and paint down a fiberglass/bonder layer to full waterproof your deck surface
4) Fourth, we apply a second skim coat of concrete
5) Fifth, we spray your choice of texture coating
6) Sixth, we apply two coats of concrete paint sealer to finalize the deck waterproofing process
Hunting leaky deck with Prestige is sure to bag you a watertight deck and save time and money in the process. Call us today for a free onsite estimate. Find out about our ten year warranty!

Tortoise Shell Watertight!
Have you ever thought of how some creatures are waterproof?! It is true. Take the tortoise for instance. It not only can swim underwater for ages, but it lives in a watertight home! It's shell is strong and fully seals it from pesky predators and leakage. This is a great illustration of how a deck coating should work. At Prestige Deck Coating we provide tortoise shell watertight decking services!Tortoise Shell Watertight!
Ironically, one of our latest jobs was located on a street called Tortoise Shell! How fitting (pun intended) for a watertight waterproofing demonstration!
With a balcony deck situation such as this, you have to be precise.
Flashing installation. Like a tortoise shell, a watertight deck needs all of the cracks and crevices to be covered. We have expert flashing installers. We know that the perimeter needs to be secured in order to prevent seepage.If you have open sides on your balcony deck, we will install drip edge flashing. As the name implies, it allows water to sheet off the edge of your decking surface.
If your deck is enclose on four sides, like the one above, it calls for diato metal flashing. This fully secures a watertight "shell." The sloping of the deck sends any excess water into the deck drains.
Crete Decking System. Prestige Deck Coating uses the newest and best in watertight technology in our decking systems. Ours is a 6 level deck repair procedure.
1) After the flashing, we lay down 2.5 lb. metal lathe and staple it down to achieve a powerfully flexible base level for the rest of our system.2) Spread polymer modified concrete across lathe3) Plaster fiberglass and bonder waterproofing layer4) Apply second layer of polymer modified concrete5) Using a pneumatic hopper gun, we spray the texture coating of your choice6) Roll on two coats of concrete paint sealer
Prestige Deck Coating is your tortoise shell watertight solution! Our foremen have at least 30 years experience. We use the top industry grade products. We are expert installers. We customize our customer care. Call us today for a free onsite estimate and learn about our multi-year warranties.
