ToggleWhat is Duradek?
Duradek is a vinyl deck product made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), specifically a PVC Sheet Membrane. The PVC membrane coats a solid surface, giving it an attractive texture that is entirely waterproof. It’s ideal for elevated decks or flat roof decks over living space. Furthermore, Duradek PVC deck membranes have a long track record of success and customer satisfaction. In fact, Duradek has been making vinyl decks for more than 40 years.
Why should I get a vinyl deck?
Vinyl decking is long-lasting, completely waterproof, and low maintenance. Duradek vinyl decking solutions are the best on the market, so you know you are getting high-quality products.
Is Duradek available in a range of colours?
Yes! Duradek comes in a variety of diverse colour options. You can easily find a colour, tone, and texture that matches your home perfectly. Whereas other vinyl decking companies have a limited selection, you will never be wanting for choice with Duradek.
How do I maintain my Duradek vinyl deck?
Vinyl decks are very easy to clean and low-maintenance. Seasonal cleaning of your Duradek will help it look its best and last longer. Four times a year (at least), wash your vinyl deck with warm soapy water, a soft-bristled brush, and water from your garden hose. Or, you can also use the Duradek vinyl cleaner. This product is engineered specifically for vinyl to not leave any harmful chemical residue. You should not powerwash your Duradek with anything higher than 1200 PSI.
How long does Duradek last?
Proper maintenance and care are essential for the longevity of your Duradek. However, your Duradek should last 15-25 years with regular cleaning.
Does Duradek come with a warranty?
Yes! Duradek comes with a 5-15 year product warranty and a 1-5 year appearance warranty. Chephren Building Solutions also offer a workmanship warranty on Duradek installations.
Is Duradek a good option for cold climates?
Duradek is an excellent option for places that experience cold and freezing temperatures (like Edmonton). Vinyl decking is flexible and won’t crack or break during thawing and freezing cycles. This makes it more durable than concrete or wood, which are vulnerable to extreme temperature swings. However, be careful when clearing your vinyl deck of ice and snow. The sharp edge of your shovel can damage the membrane.
