Deck Building
with KwikDek

"We installed KwikDek around our swimming pool - it's a great alternative to an expensive deck that might become water damaged over the years.  The KwikDek looks great, and feels even better on our feet."



KwikDek

Composite decking brands vary from company to company in appearance, composition, and availability. Generally, most brands are made of recycled wood chips and either recycled polyethylene or virgin polypropylene.

How does this KwikDek compare to a Composite Deck?
A composite deck is made from a plastic material mixed with wood particles and cannot be oiled.  For this reason, once a composite deck bleaches, it cannot be fixed.  The studying we've done on composite decking said that while composite decking is a great idea in theory, in practice, it just can't stay looking as good as when it was first installed.  Since KwikDek is wood, it can be treated once a year to keep it looking great.  The rich natural look and texture of wood cannot be duplicated with plastic.  It can also be sanded and refinished should it be gouged or damaged in some way.  Also, a single square can be replaced in minutes.

Spacing between the wood slats permit rain to flow through, while the plastic “feet” elevate the wood, allowing airflow for drying.

Compared to conventional patio replacement, a KwikDek™ cosmetic makeover can be done much faster and for far less money. The typical time and labor to break up and remove old concrete, set new forms, pour and level out cement could run thousands of dollars and take several days. With KwikDek™ you can save at least half of the expense, and be ready to entertain on your new surface in an hour or two.

Living in a rental? KwikDek™ snaps apart as easily as it snaps together. Take KwikDek™ with you when you move. Try that with a concrete pad or wood deck!

The Interlocking tabs make installation almost as easy as "child's play". You need only the skills you learned as a kid playing with Legos™ and Lincoln Logs™.

Comparisons with Composite Decking

 

Composite Floor Decks

Some composite floor decks have a ribbed profile with embossments designed to interlock with the concrete slab. This design develops a strong bond with the concrete and creates a reinforced concrete slab.

The composite floor decks serve a dual purpose: permanent form and positive reinforcement. With a cost-conscious designer, a permanent form eliminates the time and cost of carpenters to make and then remove wood forms, plus the cleanup time saved on lower floors.

Many existing products not only look and install like wood, but also have colors that "weather" like wood. But some manufacturers have found that not all consumers want their decks to weather. So many of the new colors, such as redwood or brown, hold their color throughout the deck's life. While colors may fade slightly, UV stabilizers and other additives acting similarly to those found in vinyl siding which keep their colors.

Do you have a concrete patio, wood deck or garden path that is unsightly due to cracking and deterioration? Do you wish you could repair or replace it but this doesn’t fit in your budget right now?

KwikDek is the solution.
