Waterproof Flexible Mining?
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.
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:

Tortoise Shell Watertight!
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.
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.

Laying Down the Lathe!
Lathe. Yes, metal lathe is one of the foundational components to a strong and flexible deck coating. Perhaps you are wondering what lathe is...you have come to the right place! Prestige Decking is an expert lathe installer...Have you ever wondered what is underneath a deck waterproofing system? What makes it so strong? Flexible? The answer might be surprising to some.
Metal Lathe Installation
In order to bond a waterproof decking system, you need a bridge. Lathe is exactly that.
Lathe Installation. We staple down 2.5 lb. galvanized metal lathe with heavy duty one inch crown staples. This gives our concrete layer a porous surface for proper bonding. It also achieves a delicate balance between flexibility and strength. Your anchored deck can flex and not crack!
We make to flattened all the staples to ensure an even surface on which the concrete layer sits. This crucial step in the waterproofing process must be installed correctly, or the remaining layers are in jeopardy of waterproof capability.
Tile Underlay. We recently finished a job where we prepared the deck for a tile overlay. Whether performing our signature layer Crete Decking System or preparing your deck coatings for custom tile with AVM 750 (see right), we have you covered!
After applying our two layers polymer modified concrete and one layer of fiberglass and bonder, your deck repair project is ready for the tile overlay of your choice.
Prestige Deck Coating is your Orange County based lathe expert! We have foremen with up to 40 years experience. We offer free estimates. Our waterproofing packages offer up to a ten year warranty. We value customer care, expert installation and quality products.

All Hands on Deck in Aliso Viejo!
Aliso Viejo in Orange County Ca is situated near the coast of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. This has obvious advantages and some disadvantages that lurk below the surface. Those with decks who want to enjoy the sunset from their balcony or patio need to feel secure that their decking will hold up for the summer barbeques. Combining wet winter rainstorms and dry, hot summers, can punish decking surfaces and below. Prestige Decking calls all hands on deck in Aliso Viejo repair projects. Our local know how and years of expert installation, are your ticket to a ship-shape waterproofing experience.
All Hands on Deck in Aliso Viejo!
Water in the Hole. Weather extremes can wear on coatings. Proper maintenance is key to a long-lasting coating. If you have pooling water or place heavy objects on the deck and water gathers in one area, this can lead to a breakdown in your waterproof coating.
Flashing Repair. Wet wood often means rusted metal. Under your deck's waterproofing coating is metal flashing. This forms a barrier to repel water from seeping into the cracks on the surface. When pooling water penetrates the concrete coating, it sits on this flashing, causing rust.
Crete Decking System. After repairs, one needs a quality waterproof coating to batten down the hatches! Our five layer, six level system has proven to look, feel, and perform astoundingly, for years of enjoyment.
With Prestige Deck Coating, you get all hands on deck! Our foremen have over thirty years experience in the industry, we offer ten-year warranties, and provide free estimates.

Elastomeric Deck Coatings Nightmare!
Elastomeric Deck Coatings Nightmare!
We recently traveled to a job in San Clemente where we had a nightmare on our hands! The deck had a fiberglass coating with a elastomeric type painted over the fiberglass. We recommended cleaning the surface and then installing our Crete Decking System over the existing material.
This kind of hodge podge set up is a recipe for disaster. A shoddy set like this can produce leaking and dry rot. This can affect the structure. Bad news. Our solution was simple, but effective.
1) Remove the existing elastomeric deck coatings paint and fiberglass down to the plywood, to check for damage.
2) After assessing that the plywood sub-floor and flashing was not damaged, with no need for deck repair, we proceeded to apply our deck coating system.
This 5 layer waterproofing membrane is designed for use over plywood surfaces.
-Staple down 2.5 galvanized metal diamond lathe-Trowel down cementitious base coat with polymer additive.
-Laminate using fiberglass matting & acrylic resin (Bonder 480)
-Trowel down an additional layer of our cementitious base coat
-Spray texture (Smooth/Knockdown/Orangepeel)
-Seal using fortified concrete paint

Perfect Plywwod Repair
Perfect Plywood Repair
Our crew recently traveled to Newport Beach to modify a deck coating with a pooling problem. Pooling is bad, because standing water leads to eventual dry rot and structural damage.
Sloping. This particular decking needed 3 buckets of material to fill lows spots on the deck. Decks are built with sloping, but often, if they are down improperly, it leads to standing water. So we re-sloped the deck surface properly.
Perfect Plywood Repair. We needed to repair the dry rot caused by the standing water. We removed the damaged plywood and re-install 3/4 inch tongue and groove plywood.
Scope Of Work:
-Staple down 2.5 galvanized metal diamond lathe
-Staple down 2.5 galvanized metal diamond lathe
-Trowel down cementitious base coat with a Desert Brand polymer additive.
-Laminate using fiberglass matting & Desert Brand acrylic resin(Bonder 480)

Deck Flashing Frenzy!
[ssba]
If you have a new deck that needs waterproofing, it is going to be a deck flashing frenzy!
Deck Flashing Frenzy!
drip edge |
Let me give you a run down on some of the main types of deck flashing and their uses.
Drip Edge. The name is self-explanatory. It is located around the perimeter's edge and it allows the water to drip off your deck! This is used when the deck has at least one open side. It has a lip on the drip side, in order to keep the water off the fascia board.
L metal |
L Metal. Again, this deck flashing is self-descriptive. It is usually placed up against walls. It fits snugly on the deck to wall transition. It keeps the water out of your cracks.
Diato/Combo. As a substitute for L metal, where there are stucco walls. The stucco lies on the top part of the deck flashing, to give you a flush look.
Door Pans. These protect your door threshold from any water seepage. At Prestige Deck Coating, we build custom pans to suit your particular needs!
diato |
Whatever your specific need, our deck repair experts are on top of it! With Prestige Deck Coating, you can be sure it will be a decking frenzy, resulting in a waterproof balcony, stairway, walkway, patio, or roof deck.
We offer free estimates and our foreman have up to 40 years experience in the deck waterproofing industry! Call us today and see how committed we are to maintain metal mastery for all of your deck flashing needs and beyond!
