Tufdek™ FAQ

What is Tufdek?

Tufdek™ is a sheet vinyl product used to waterproof outdoor walking surfaces such as decks, balconies, walkways, roof-decks, and patios.

 

How is Tufdek installed?

The vinyl sheet is adhered to a smooth, dry surface using Tufdek™ adhesive. If more than one panel is required, they are overlapped and welded to ensure a continuous waterproof surface. The inside and outside edges are then treated to complete the installation.

 

Can I install it myself?

No, Tufdek™ is only available through factory trained technicians. We will ensure a quality installation of your outdoor surface covering.

 

How long does Tufdek last?

Normal life expectancy is 20+ years. This will depend on the conditions the surface is exposed to and the care it receives.

 

How does it perform in freezing temperatures?

Tufdek™ has been installed in harsh winter environments with exceptional results. It will stand up to the harshest of cold environments, even an Alberta winter.

 

How do I keep it clean in the winter?

Snow removal using a plastic snow shovel without sharp edges or salt and de-icer will have no negative effects on the Tufdek™ surface.

 

Which of the patterns come with Scuff Guard® Technology?

Both the Supreme and Designer series of Tufdek™ include Scuff Guard®. Scuff Guard® is a coating applied to the surface of the vinyl sheet and is designed to resist abrasion, scuff, and UV damage. The technology, unique to Tufdek™, helps keep your outdoor surface vibrant and durable.

 

What patterns are available with Cool-Step?

Cool-Step™ helps keep your outdoor surface cool and comfortable on the hottest summer days. The current patterns available with this technology are “Pewter” and “Solid Stone.”
