Vancouver Injection and Waterproofing has waterproofed hundreds of decks over the years. Our polyurethane coatings for pedestrian walkways are UV stable, 100% waterproof and attractive. If there is damage to the coating, it is an simple repair. The life of the coating can be extended after many years of use by simply re-coating the deck. This is a big advantage over tearing up an old vinyl membrane and having to redo it from scratch.
For plywood decks, fabric tape is installed into all of the joints. This allows the plywood to expand and contract without cracking the membrane. After the fabric has been installed, the first base coat is rolled on which dries into a flexible polyurethane rubber. After this step, the first top coat is applied with a sand finish. After the first top coat is dry, the second coat is applied without sand. This results in a beautiful finish which is 100% waterproof.
