Parkade Deck

Seen here is the top deck of a multi-level parkade. Exposure to elements, high traffic pressures and an originally flawed coating application have negated protective attributes. Carrying corrosive contaminants from the substrate, water is drawing down into the parkade below and causing damage to parked autos. Repair missteps by the owner have contributed to a now disastrous deck condition.

An unsightly, unserviceable mess.

Successful deck coating application is contingent upon proper substrate preparation: Paint lines and failing membrane are mechanically removed and substrate is scarified to ensure proper adhesion of new coating. Oil and grease contaminants are cleaned with biodegradable trisodium phosphate and, depending on width, cracks receive base coat or are sawed-out and urethane sealed.

Old caulking is removed and edges prepared for new sealant.

Failing expansion joints are pulled out and gaps readied for replacement.

Thanks to careful substrate preparation, new coating adheres flawlessly and new surface receives parking line and number painting to complete the job.

Parking lot perfection: AAA Professional Restorations employs the Sonnebonn® Traffic Deck Membrane System, which carries a 5 year labour and material warranty.
