Pacific Plywood Resheeting
Hot and dry Mission Viejo is just a hop skip and a jump from the beautiful Pacific Ocean. Prestige Deck Coating is located right down the road in Capistrano Beach. So, for years, we have had plenty of opportunity to practice our plywood resheeting techniques. With the addition of random rain, it makes for a harsh climate for decks.Plywood Resheeting
We recently performed an extensive plywood resheeting overhaul on an "old mission" deck.
Because
many of the patio decks, balcony decks, pool decks, stairways, and
walkways in Mission Viejo were built in the 1970's, they are in dire
need of deck repair. Technology has met time, and Prestige Decking is
there to wed the two into a waterproofing masterpiece!

Plywood Resheeting. Dry rot had invaded this decking, so we removed all of the damaged plywood. We laid down 3/4 inch sheets to cover the deck. The earlier deck had been infiltrated by water pooling.Stucco Repair.
We removed eight inches of stucco in order to install the diato metal
around the perimeter. This fits snug under the stucco wall to fully
waterproof an enclosed deck.

- Drip Edge Flashing.
This deck had a partial edge, so as well as the diato metal, we
installed drip edge flashing. This allows the excess water to sheet off
of the deck coating.
Deck Waterproofing System.
We installed the Crete Decking System. We have developed and tweaked
this system over the years to specialize for the Orange County CA
climate. It is a five layer, fully waterproof membrane designed for
decks with plywood sheeting.

Deck Repair Flair
Deck repair flair. Yes, flair. Prestige Deck Coatingis a deck waterproofing expert and artisan. After making your deck
watertight, we want you to want to look at your balcony, patio,
stairways, walkway, landing, roof, or pool deck. Waterproof, yes.
Beautiful, absolutely. Who expects
high-class craftsmanship more than the folks in the posh city of Corona
Del Mar? It is not a coincidence that the latest masterpiece we created
was on a street named orchid.

Plywood Resheeting.
Before the flair, we have the nuts and bolts. This Corona Del Mar
decking was in sorry shape. We had to fully resheet the plywood after
doing a dry rot repair. We use 3/4 inch tongue and groove plywood sheets, firmly bolting them down to the sub floor.

Stucco Removal and Repair.Because this deck was enclosed, and had evasive dry rot, we found the
existing flashing to be unusable. Before we can install new L metal or
Diato metal flashing, we have to remove part of the stucco wall to fit
the flashing underneath.
Diato Metal Flashing.
We typically use this type of flashing in the case of stucco walls. It
works seamlessly with the existing structure, and provides a watertight
finished product.

Deck Drains & Door Pans. The deck drains
were rusted out and so was the door pan. Part of the deck repair flair
of Prestige Decking, is our ability to both tear down and rebuild. Deck
drains come in copper or stainless steel, depending on your specific
needs.
Scupper Drains.
Occasionally a deck is so large that there are both deck drains and
scupper drains. Scuppers are used as inserts in the enclosing wall to
allow excess water to properly drain off the deck. We installed four on
this posh Corona Del Mar deck project!

The Cricket and the Deck Drain
The cricket and deck drain. Sounds like a weird fairy tale intro, doesn't it? It is actually a true story about teamwork. In the deck repair industry,the cricket and deck drain are partners in deck waterproofing. Without
one, the other is obsolete. We recently traveled to Huntington Beach Ca
and performed a lengthy deck coating overhaul. Prestige Decking is always up for the challenge!

This deck had severe dry rot, so we had to remove all the tile and fix
the sub-floor. We then proceeded to prepare for the sloping service.

Pressure Wash & Reseal.
In order to prepare deck coatings for a cricket installation, we first
had to clean off any loose decking debris. The pressure wash/reseal
service works great.

After we constructed the sloping cricket, we installed door pans and L

toremove the siding of the deck, as it was enclosed. L Metal is used when
the deck is fully enclosed, installed all around the perimeter.
Flashing is one of the most important aspects of the deck repair
process.It secures the perimeter to ensure a watertight deck.
Deck Drain.
We then installed a new deck drain on each side of the deck. This deck
coating was enclosed, so it required deck drains, unlike a deck with
open sides.
The Crete System.
We completed this deck drain repair with our signature deck
waterproofing system. The Crete System is a five layer waterproof
membrane that comes with a ten-year warranty.
