How does your decking help residen-
tial remodelers?
Outdoor living has grown exponentially
over the past several years. Homeowners are
maximizing space and extending their living
areas outward, making their decks a true
extension of the home. Duradek provides an
attractive, skid-resistant surface without the
maintenance required with traditional wood
decks. More importantly, the solid surface
allows elevated decks to provide additional
dry space below for extra storage and gives
rooftop decks reliable waterproofing for liv-
ing space below.
What's the next advancement in the
decking and hardscape market?
People desire naturally inspired colors
and textures for their functional outdoor
living space. Products that are attractive and
serve a functional purpose, like Duradek's
waterproof walking deck surfaces, target
the practical needs of waterproof protec-
tion and unique design desires for outdoor
living surfaces. A combination of function
and design using patterns and color tones
that subtly emulate natural inspirations
invites harmony to exterior design schemes,
allowing deck designs to blend seamlessly
between the interior of the home and the
landscaping. Circle 34 on card www.for
