If your from the East coast the term "Roof Deck" is very common. Condo's and Townhome designers have been using them as a feature for decades. If your a fan of the many home improvement shows like HGTV or House Hunters you have probably seen an episode where the perspective buyer wants a Townhome so the maintenance is minimal but they all require that it has a roof deck for entertaining.When done correctly they are a great addition to the home. Duradek is the way to do a roof deck right, ask David Rupp of @Home Realty. David has been instrumental in bringing this very unique design to life in one of the harshest climates in Utah.
What makes Duradek different than the other products is really very simple. They don't mess around, waterproofing is a serious business and not one to be taking shortcuts in. Duradek's walkable roof membranes meet or exceed both traffic coating and roofing approvals. That means they go through more than four times as much testing! A coating product will only be tested in four areas while Duradek goes through eighteen of them, there are very, very few products in Utah that are approved as a walkable roof system.
Over the next couple of posts here we will walk through the installation process from beginning to completion and explain the steps taken that will provide you with a waterproof deck that will last for decades. Oh yeah, the maintenance program is - Wash it off!
