The PVC membrane is probably the best coating for your outdoor patio or terrace, especially if you live in an area where the climate is quite capricious like North America. But what are the main advantages of this type of material?
Unlike treated wood or fiberglass, the PVC membrane does not retain heat, which can be very advantageous during the hot seasons which can be particularly harsh in Canada. Indeed, you can walk barefoot or even sit comfortably there, without risking burning yourself, whatever the outside temperature.
Treated wood, ceramic or fiberglass can be very slippery during wet periods such as winter or during rainy seasons and are therefore likely to cause more or less serious accidents, sometimes even fatal. The PVC membrane, on the other hand, is non-slip and allows you to circulate safely on your patio or terrace at all times.
The effects of elastomeric polyurethane-based waterproofing coatings on sale on the market generally fade after one or two seasons, especially in a region like Canada. The PVC membrane, on the other hand, offers complete, effective and durable protection against infiltration thanks to welded joints. This is essential to protect the structure and foundations and to optimize their lifespan.
