May is deck safety month. Is your deck safe? If it’s slippery and slimy from mold and algae or puts bare feet at risk of splinters, it’s not safe. It’s time for a deck waterproofing that protects your deck and provides a safe walking surface.
Class A One Hour Safety
The Desert Crete deck waterproofing system made by Hills Brothers carries a Class A one hour fire safety rating.
What does that mean? It means that it protects the coated building materials against fire for one hour. And the protected building materials can be your deck, balcony, roof deck or walkway. When you think about deck safety, you might not think of fire but you should. When it comes to surviving wildfire, that hour might make a big difference.
Deck Waterproofing for Slip Resistance
Everybody knows many surfaces are slippery when wet. But pool decks get wet a lot! If you want to keep your pool deck safe, add a slip resistant material to the deck waterproofing. Keep your deck safe from moisture and friends and family safe from falls. That’s a two-fer. Some of the slip resistant products inhibit mold and algae growth. Now that’s a three-fer and a real bonus.
Wood decks get wet and slippery too, especially if they are sporting a coat of mold. Add a slip resistance when you apply the deck waterproofing to keep everyone safe.
Another popular patio material is Satillo or Mexican tile. This porous tile must be sealed to protect the tile. Some coatings seal the tile but make the tile slick. Mix a slip-proof additive to seal and keep you and the tile safe.

Wood decks need protection from rain, bugs, dry rot and ultraviolet light. Make sure your deck waterproofing product is up to the task.
