Carolina Fiberglass, LLC
Welcome to CarolinaFiberglass.com. Carolina Fiberglass is one
of
the best up and coming services in the Carolinas. Fiberglass
provides
the most complete and maintenance free seal for outdoor
construction
and offers a highly decorative means of protecting a home.
NECESSARY PREPARATION OF
SURFACES
- Deck construction should allow water to drain freely. Carolina
Fiberglass recommends 1/4" per foot. Any less is
risky!
- Decking material should be clean, dry 3/4" T/G plywood ( free of
knots + footballs ). Do not use treated ( CCA )
or
cedar lumber for decking, only as posts, as the resin will
not properly adhere. Two layers of half inch plywood,
seams staggered, also works
very well.
- Fasten with nails or screws. (Check with Carolina
Fiberglass for details)
- Campher strips are also installed on any 45*
inside angle, ie. deck/wall, deck/post(s), and/or step/riser. Pine or
fir (No treated or cedar when fiberglassed).
- Deck should have a 1"by 3"to 8" facia, attached, which will be the
drip cap.(check with
Carolina
Fiberglass for details) .
- Fiberglass laminte must be installed
prior to door and
siding installation.
- Carolina Fiberglass would like five to seven days
notice before the decking is installed to schedule accordingly.
- Prompt installation of the deck banding will allow the prompt completion of
the facia and waterproofing.
