What is Dec-Tec?
Dec-Tec provides a sophisticated and beautiful way to waterproof any number of areas including balconies, boathouses, walkways, stairs, boats and more. Being a high traction rated and low maintenance product, Dec-Tec is the best choice in walkable deck surface solutions.
The Integrity Roofing & Construction project we will be featuring in this article is from late summer of 2022 at Tizley’s Europub in Poulsbo. Tizley’s needed a new second story outdoor patio that would be used for seating in the warmer months and be able to withstand the weathering that comes from being close to a large bay of water.
High Traffic, Low Maintenance
Dec-Tec is the only product of its kind to be made via spreadcoat method, which is a unique process used when manufacturing the membrane. The spread coat method is when molten liquefied PVC is spread directly through the reinforcement, multi-directional fiberglass, thus encapsulating the reinforcement. This creates a fully monolithic membrane with internal reinforcement where there is no chance of delamination of the membrane.
When doing work for a high traffic outdoor establishment such as a restaurant or pub it is important to find a decking that will be protected from people AND weather! Photos below display the project during construction, in peak busy season!
Fire Resistant
Another great feature of Dec-Tec is it’s fire resistant! Tested against several over roofing types the Dec-Tec membrane can withstand much higher temperatures and open flames.
