Experience the Driscoll Difference

The Ireland's had recently purchased this beautiful five (5) bedroom home, but realized the fiberglass decks were in pretty bad shape.

      The Ireland Project Description:

      From a distance, the fiberglass decks didn't look that bad; but, as soon as

      you got up close you began to notice the built-up fiberglass under the railing

      posts, but NOT under the structural posts - and there were plenty of them to

      leak through. The roof top deck had cracks and nail-pops through the

      fiberglass because they were not nailed into the joists. We have our work cut

      out for us...

      The Driscoll Fiberglass Solution Story:

      The first thing we'll need to do is rip off the fiberglass decks and see what

      structural water damage we have below; replace the joists and sub-flooring,

      lay new 5/8" sheathing, the pre-fiberglassed 1/2" finished decking, putty,

      sand, with 1.5oz fiberglass mat and a waterproof Gel Kote finish.

Ireland: Looks pretty good from here...	Ireland: Love that over-sized roof top deck, but..	Ireland: ..Are those j-chanel over the fascias

Ireland: First let's remove the railings...	Ireland: Then jack-her-up to remove the water damaged decking under the columns	Ireland: Note the section of broken column for the water to pour in... Not to worry, we'll fix it!

Ireland: Ripping off the roof deck...	Ireland: That's how a column is supposed to be fiberglassed!	Ireland: The back deck 'glassed the right way!

Ireland: The roof deck too, note the fascias into the roofline	Ireland: Roof deck, note the fiberglass 8-10" up the walls.	Ireland: And, finally the waterproof Gel Koting is applied

Ireland: Note the new fascia "over" the j-chanel	Ireland: Just one little spot before we step down	Ireland: We'll put the railings back on, but note those large fascias up and down!
