Duradek Product Demo – Duradek Waterproofing System Application Overview
The YouTube video you’ve referenced likely serves as a comprehensive overview of Waterproof Decks offerings, focusing on their installation of Duradek—a high-quality vinyl decking membrane known for its waterproofing capabilities and aesthetic versatility.
The video probably showcases the array of available Duradek colors and patterns, including the Cool-Dek line, which features lighter shades designed to reflect more light and maintain cooler surface temperatures, enhancing comfort during hot weather.
By presenting these options, the video aims to assist homeowners and contractors in selecting the ideal design to complement their outdoor spaces while ensuring durability and low maintenance.
Additionally, it underscores the expertise of Waterproof Decks in installing these membranes, highlighting their commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction.
This video showcases the step-by-step process that Waterproof Decks follows when resurfacing a deck with Duradek, a premium waterproof vinyl membrane.
The process begins with the removal of the old, improperly installed Duradek using a skillsaw, cutting it into smaller, more manageable pieces. Once the old material is removed, they lay down new plywood, securing it with screws to create a solid foundation.
Next, they seal the plywood with Bondo, ensuring that any cracks or uneven surfaces are leveled for a smooth application. The team then applies two layers of adhesive—one water-based glue for initial bonding and another tackier adhesive for a stronger hold.
Finally, they install the Duradek membrane and use a hot-air welding gun (without an open flame) to seal the seams, ensuring a fully waterproof surface.
The result is a durable, weatherproof deck that is both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional, protecting the structure from moisture damage for years to come.
This video from Waterproof Decks explains the importance of incorporating a small slope—specifically ¼ inch per foot—when constructing or resurfacing a deck with Duradek.
The slight incline ensures that water properly drains off the surface, preventing standing water that could lead to long-term issues like pooling, leaks, and premature wear. Without this essential slope, water could accumulate, increasing the risk of seepage, mold, and structural damage over time.
The video likely demonstrates how this slope is integrated during installation, ensuring the deck remains efficiently waterproof and long-lasting.
By following this best practice, Waterproof Decks ensures that every Duradek installation is both functional and durable, offering homeowners a low-maintenance, weather-resistant outdoor space.
This video from Waterproof Decks explains the typical timeline for completing a Duradek installation project, which generally takes between 2 to 4 days. The process includes removing old materials, preparing the surface with new plywood, sealing joints, applying adhesives, and heat-welding the Duradek membrane for a watertight finish.
However, the video also highlights potential complications that could extend the timeline, such as hidden structural damage, weather conditions, or unexpected issues with the existing deck framing. By providing this insight, Waterproof Decks helps homeowners understand what to expect during the project while emphasizing their commitment to quality craftsmanship and thorough installation, ensuring a long-lasting, waterproof deck.
