Superlative San Juan Tiles

Tile decks in rustic San Juan Capistrano are a saintly pair. But, despite their gorgeous looks, they can

easily chip, crack, split and worst of all - leaks and pooling water underneath! No problemo for Prestige Decking! You don't have to ditch the tiles and lose you beautiful decking surface. 

Tiles

Problemo

It's true, tiles are muy bueño. But, they can be expensive in more than one way. But, el problemo real isn't cost as much – as the grout. Like any other concrete based material, tiles seep water. If what's underneath is not waterproof – grande problemo!

So, while you are enjoying the look and feel of your tiles, there could be pooling water underneath. Pooling water = no bueño. After a while, it causes dry rot in the wood sub-floor or structural beams. If that wasn't bad enough, a deck repair with a tile underlay system does not allow for salvaging. You get nailed more than once – dos – to be exact!

Solucion

AVM Tiles

 

AVM Industries has developed a solid system for underlaying waterproof tiles. See bajo for the basics (for those interested in the specs, go here). Prestige Decking is certified to install this excellent waterproofing solucion - fit for San Juan Capistrano's aesthetic vibe.

1) Install a 6 inch wide membrane strip at deck perimeters, joints, cracks, sheet metals, drains, scuppers, posts, door ways, entry ways, etc.

2) Use a wider strip if the 6" strip will not provide adequate waterproofing protection.

3) Install the AVM Membrane 700 to all the remaining surfaces with a minimum 2 inch overlap at the seams and completely overlapping the 6 inch strip

4) Next, protective coating (optional with the following exception: required when membrane is installed directly to plywood substrates).

5) Protective layer: apply the AVM Crete 6700 over the cured membrane 700 at least 1/8 of an inch thick. Now, your waterproof tile underlay system is complete!

Each customer has specific individual needs, so we use eco-friendly tiles. In addition, we offer 10 year warranties on most systems. With over a decade of on-the-site experience and experimentation to boast, we are the right Orange County local choice for all your deck waterproofing needs!

Beautiful Balcony Deck

Who doesn't want a beautiful balcony deck? Recently we finished a job in sunny Yorba Linda (Spanish for "Yorba's beauty"). When you see our work, you will note the beautiful pun (pun intended). At Prestige Decking, we insure our deck coating projects in two main ways. One, by offering limited ten year warranties. Two, our seven layer Crete deck waterproofing system.

Making Linda More Beautiful

At Prestige Deck Coating, we work with you as a person. After determining your specifics needs, we do all we can to deliver beyond your expectations.

Repair & Re-Sheet. In this particular case, there was water damage to the deck that needed addressing. The tell tale signs of dry rot caused us to investigate under the surface. As you can see there was much damage.

Sadly, this once beautiful balcony deck needed a full plywood sheet removal and structural repair.

No problem for Prestige, we do this all the time. But, it is a good warning. If you have any sign of surface discoloration, this could mean bad things under the hood! Get it checked out!

Base Level Strength. After the plywood re-sheet and structural repair, we moved on to the lathe installation. This serves as both an anchor and allows the deck subfloor to torque.

Concrete Power/Fiberglass Flex. For strength, our next level is polymer modified concrete. We then roll down fiberglass matting with resin bonder to achieve a watertight seal.  Additionally, we add a layer of concrete to make the perfect power/flex sandwich! A bite size beautiful balcony deck is in the oven!

Texture. I think almost anyone would agree, that beauty includes texturing. Before "sealing the deal," our Crete Decking System adds a texture coat of your personal design choice. It gives your deck flare, personality, and an anti-slip grip to boot!

Sealing the Deal. At Prestige, we use concrete fortified, waterproof paint sealer to complete a beautiful balcony deck. Again, you have a choice of 16 shades of custom color.

Prestige Deck Coating offers limited ten year warranties, eco-friendly products, and free onsite, honest, personalized estimates – for the long life of your beautiful balcony deck!

Tremendous Watertight Tiles

Watertight tiles you ask? Does your tile deck have cracks, loose tiles? Is it swelling? Perhaps, it seems rock solid on top, but a mush pot below? You might notice signs of discoloration. Whatever the problem, you likely have water damage. Tile   is notorious for leaking. Not a worry for Prestige Decking! Read on below for one of our most recent projects.

Watertight Tiles Installation

Installing tiles is the easy part. What goes underneath makes all the difference.  

Watertight tiles are beautiful, and can be expensive. But, the problem isn't cost – as much as the insidious grout.

So, while you are enjoying the look and feel of your tile, underneath there could be pooling water. Pooling water = no bueno. After a while, it causes dry rot in the wood sub-floor or structural beams. Worse yet, oftentimes a deck repair under tile does not allow for tile salvaging. You get zapped twice. Owie!

Prestige Deck Coating can help! We are experts in waterproofing your balcony, patio, roof, walkway, or stairways.

We can prepare your watertight tiles to succeed.

AVM Industries has developed an excellent system for tremendous watertight tiles. Here are their detailed steps.

In a recent project, we repaired the framing of the deck and installed new plywood. This system has a polyester fabric embedded in the waterproof membrane. In order to insure flexibility and durability, this is necessary under the heavy weight of the tiles. For extra security and strength, we tied in a concrete slab to the wood substrate.

Prestige Deck Coating works with each customer to meet individual needs. We use eco-friendly products. We offer 10 year warranties on most systems. Our supervisors each have at least 30 years experience in the deck coatings industry.
