San Clemente Deck Waterproofing

It happens sometimes I get caught up in the work and forget to take pictures. In this case we're missing the stucco color coat and the deck troweled texture coat. This however is the completed project. With the application of a sealer coat every year or so depending on usage before rain season, this deck will last the life of the building.

This application is called the 'Brown Coat.' After this coat dries and hardens we will apply the final coat or 'color coat.' Once the color coast has dried we will prime with Eff-stop and paint it up on this particular part of the job.

After the bonder coat has dried and hardened, the next coat of the Desert Crete waterproofing system is applied. This coat is a 20/30 sand mix combined with a polymer and troweled on at approximately one quarter inch thickness.
