Dex o Tex. If you have a concrete surface that is showing its age, Dex-O-Tex makes a layered system (Weatherwear) that will rejuvenate it. Weatherwear is fire-retardant and floats on top of the existing surface. Since the 1940’s it has been updating the look of roof decks, balconies, patios and walkways.

Complete the Make-Over

Once Crank Waterproofing finishes the deck coating, you’ll probably want to spruce up the rest of the outdoor area. Here are a few tips to complete your outdoor living area renovation:

Grey & white make this space look larger.

Look Larger. Color makes a small balcony or patio or any space look larger. The trick is to use a monochromatic color scheme. So still to the same color, with variations in tone, for the deck furnishings as well as the deck surface color. When it comes to neutrals, grey is the new white. Use either grey or white to give your new space a larger appearance.

Create Focal Points. Start with a focal point and work out from there. What does that mean? It means you pick a piece, from a chair to a table that will serve as the focal point for the design. Then you select complementing and contrasting accent pieces. Don’t be afraid to repurpose or “upcycle” older pieces with worn finishes. Just apply a new coat of paint for the ultimate in green redecorating. Check out Pinterest for upcycling and recycling inspiration.

Incorporate the View. If you’ve got a killer view, don’t hide it with high backed furniture and bulky

What a view!

railings. Wrought iron furniture won’t block the view. And when it comes to railings, consider glass railings. Crank Waterproofing installs clear railings that provide an unfettered view of your view. Just take a look at this view!
