Grade A Balcony Deck

At Prestige Deck Coating, we provide grade A balcony deck coatings and more. Many apartment and condominiums come with a balcony deck. For some, it becomes another place for storage. For others, a make shift garden. Still others, it is where the grilling gets done. No matter how you use your balcony deck, it needs to be waterproof.

So what is a Grade A balcony deck?

How is it built? What does it look like?

The above photos are from a customer rated Grade A balcony deck job. Listen to our satisfied customer's own words:

Do I Have A Waterproof Deck?

Winter
has come. El Nino storms might at any time strike. What kind of shape
is your balcony, patio or roof deck in? You might be asking, do I have a waterproof deck? If not, when is the right time to fix it? At Prestige Deck Coating, we have seen some sure signs that call for deck repair and waterproofing.


Waterproof Deck?

Here are some signs that you might not have a waterproof deck.

watrproof deck_leakingHoles. Holes
are not only unsightly. They are a clear sign that your deck needs a
repair and waterproof coating. Once a deck is exposed to the elements,
it is almost always sure that there is foundation damage as well.


Soft Spots.
Soft spots can be deceptive. They might only suggest a small repair due
to a little water under the surface, or they could be the sign of a
need for full plywood resheeting. Waiting will only exacerbate the
situation. They are also dangerous, as they are hidden, until a person
puts their foot through the surface.


pooling water_not a waterproof deckRust. Rust = water present. Water present  = not waterproofed. If you have a rust on the deck,
it likely means the water has seeped into the metal flashing around the
perimeter. This usually means a need to replace the flashing and do a
deck repair.


Pooling.
If you have more than a dime deep of water in any spot on your deck an
hour after rain, this could be a problem. Pooling water shows at least
two things. One, the deck is not properly designed to run off excess
water. Two, you will likely have water seeping under the surface.
Pooling needs to be addressed by creating a cricket, to create proper flow off the deck.


Leaking. If your deck is leaking water below, you can confidently say,"I do not have a waterproof deck!"

Leaking
assumes not only a lack of waterproofing, but also structural damage,
and likely drywall damage. Call your local deck coating contractor now!

any of these scenarios describe your deck, do not hesitate to call a
decking pro like Prestige Deck Coating. We offer free onsite
assessments, custom estimates, 10 year warranties, and 30+ years
experience for our site supervisors.


We know how to answer the elusive question, "do I have a waterproof deck?"

Commercial Balcony Deck Coating

Prestige Deck Coating is known for local and residential deck waterproofing excellence. Perhaps you were unaware that we do large commercial jobs as well. Recently we traveled up near Disneyland to to repair and coat the Marriott Fairfield Inn.

Commercial Balcony Deck Coating VS. Residential

(check out the sweet view of the Matterhorn)

commercial balcony deck coating_Anaheim

We treat commercial balcony deck coating like a residential job...with care.

What allows us to scale a Matterhorn sized project like this, even as a family owned and operated company, is our dialed in 5 step method. In fact, our custom, on the site waterproofing system is highly adaptable. It was developed in a variety of contexts, and for a variety of people, so it is meant to meet any need.
As you can see from the photos, each balcony is the same size. This allowed us to strategize and replicate easily. Commercial balcony deck coating requires uniformity. This is for aesthetics and function.
Each balcony has a slope for run off sheeting. This means that when it rains (and it will this winter), the Marriott needs to be assured there will not be pooling on the decks. All industry code decking has built in sloping so the water sheets off the deck edge. Prestige Decking makes sure that the industry standard of slope is maintained. After one hour of rain, the water level should not be deeper than a dime laid flat.

We make sure that each commercial balcony deck coating deck is waterproofed from foundation to perimeter through each level of coating.

*Metal lathe is stapled on the plywood substrate or if the previous coating is intact, we can coat right over it.
*polymer modified concrete is the first coat. The polymer helps flex and strength.
*The key step we use is putting chop strand fiberglass in between our two concrete coats.
*After a second skim coat of concrete, we add a texture of your choice. This gives the deck a grip.
*Last, are two waterproof coats of concrete fortified paint sealer.

Commercial balcony deck coating is like a stroll down main street! With Prestige Decking, the happiest place on earth can be your deck.

The 411 on Decks and Drought


decks and drought_repair

The condition of decks can be deceptive during drought.
First, little to no water contact on your deck can bring a false sense
of security. What is going on underneath is most important. Dry rot or
pooling water might have already penetrated the foundation. Secondly,
after drought usually comes the flood. Damaged decks will be big trouble
when the rains come. Even a proper deck coating needs to be ready for
extreme wet weather. Here are some signs to look for:

411 on Decks and Drought

Repairing Decks and Drought. Prestige Deck Coating
offers a variety of deck repair options. We can fix small dry rot
sections. We remove and install full plywood re-sheeting. If mold,
mildew or pervasive water damage has reached the joists, we can rebuild
from the bottom up. We can even remove, repair or install deck drains
and metal flashing. If necessary, we can repair railing posts. All of
these services are crucial for being prepared for flooding after a
drought.

Decks and Drought...

"Then the rains came..." If
decks are damaged, rainstorms will instantly expose the problems. It
will likely make the damage worse than if you fixed it during the
drought. Imagine constant liquid on a deck that has soft spots, dry rot
or foundational damage. You might then need a whole deck, not just a
repair. A few hundred dollar fix has now become many thousands. No
bueno.

Decks and Drought...

"...but they built upon the rock" If
you have proper deck waterproofing or no damage, you till need to be
ready for the flood. Prestige Decking can help here too! We know decks,
so we can recommend custom water diversion techniques. We want our
current customers and potential clients to feel AND be safe when the
drought goes and the waters explode.
