Depends if you want it to have the screws hidden or not. If you do then I think it will be cheaper by a fair bit. But I think this product is more for speed of instalation and the knowledge required being lower, I think.
The no connectors is nice. No exposed fasteners. No extra holes in the lumber which is good. But if you're setting this on concrete, you've already got a patio. If you're setting this on crushed limestone, I don't know. Will it stay floating? Probably not.
@@evenjesuscantsaveyouanymor6163 yep, this product would be perfect for someone like me. I measure 20 times, cut once, realize I fucked up the measurement anyway....
@@evenjesuscantsaveyouanymor6163 Also real wood is going to be hard to maintain in the long run, especially if it takes a lot of rain and moist, this will probably last without hustle, just a damp cloth, I am uncomfortable about the grooves though, it might harbour some dirt.
The problem I’m facing is hiring someone to do all the leveling or doing it all by myself So even in this preparation, it looks like the ground must be level in order to get that deck on
Also lay down a concrete pad or round concrete bases on which posts stand. I have seen cheaper folks who build their deck on the gravel or have concrete poured around a wood post that will eventually rot.
The few hours are for the ground leveling. If you already have a concrete pad depending on the size, it will only take about 30-40 minutes for most new build homes back patio
The only practical use I see for this is if someone was building a patio and wanted it as a border or something of the sout same lever as the already level patio
I’m a contractor and I’ve never seen this. Me likey. Anyone install this on a Florida or warm weather pool deck? It’s awesome that it floats and water can run under it even if installed over concrete. Interesting. Florida is getting sick of the same old pavers,paint,fake brick look topper,travertine tiles,pebble deck. I’m thinking of starting a trend with something like this mixed with a good quality fake turf as the pool deck surface since they have floating turf too so it can be washed and water drains under it. Could change the whole,e look of decks and back yards and these need minimal maintenance.
I would need this despite the comments on heat and cold. I live in an apartment and I don't really like my concrete floor balcony this looks like a quick fix to that lmao 😅
Still have to prepare a flat and level surface that won't sag over time to put it on. Basically you'll have to pour concrete anyway so what's the point...
Yes. I want this… does it need to be installed on concrete? Or can it go on gravel or dirt? I have so many questions but I absolutely want this. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for.. where do I get this
It says dirt, gravel, sand, pavers, or concrete. I recommend putting a weed barrier under it though. It also says grass, but I wouldn't recommend that one.
I'm assuming it comes with specific boards that won't shrink due to access rain and moisture question mark because if you use normal would they will shrink a bit and I'm curious if it will still be locked in place after shrinkage.
$300 before tax for 4ftx4ft sections (including the deck material) ridiculously over priced imo. The company is Barrette Outdoor Living just to add to the original comment bc google popped up a ton of similar products when I searched Instadeck Outdoor Flooring System.
Interesting. But I'd be very,very surprised if it worked a fraction of the cost as you say. I've always found new innovations ,time saving and DIY products to be very expensive. It'd only be as simple and as straightforward as in this video if you had a nice level and even base to start with. Might be good for a deck on a flat roof though.
@@learyan I priced out my small patio 10X16.5 and it worked out to just over $3000 CDN for the premium plastic boards I would guess that would include the base all from Home Depot
You could. Take this a little bit farther and make it a really good product. The way it is now Yes, I don't believe.the clips would hold Unless you were parading, it on perfectly flat concrete. But then again, who knows, zip ties hold pretty well.
of course they do. Just the way plastic is. Breaks down over time. Stretches and shrinks with the temperature. Like black ice with a little frost. If you can afford it. Go light color. Because you will feel the heat through any shoe. Good luck 😂
Depending on the size, but for the most part this is going to cost you WAY more than building a floating deck. 4 boards of this with base will cost you $288 on Wayfair. If you actually did a deck with size you’d end up paying way more for a not so sturdy deck. The reviews on these aren’t that great either.
thanks for the great idea. product information would be even greater.

I'm guessing arko floors ??
A zillion dollars 😂
Went to arkofloors and they don’t sell this product
Don't see it on their website.
I very much doubt it’s going to be cheaper than traditional method.

Well for me not having to deal with contractors would be a dream solution.

Works great on perfectly level & smooth concrete. How many ppl build a wood deck 3” above their concrete slab? Very, very few!
Great for roof decks, especially when managing drainage
Don't forget to level the ground, which will take more than a few hours.
Also lay down a concrete pad or round concrete bases on which posts stand. I have seen cheaper folks who build their deck on the gravel or have concrete poured around a wood post that will eventually rot.
Yea this will still require some ground support

where would one buy this?
Me likey too
likey like
What city you located
If I could afford it I certainly would. Thank you for sharing,
It's plastic and will work on application if they didn't snap or break but not sure over time due exposure to OV rays.
UV rays also!
UV rays don’t go thru wood planks. Not sure about OV rays tho
Where can you buy ?
Yeah, wonder how it works in northern climates. Wish they added a product name.
My exact thought. Anything plastic in my area will break over the winter.
Can you show a finished product? Do they have other flooring colors?
How long can it hold up to a Minnesota Winter? Or above 100*F with close to 100% Humidity? Warranty & product info?
Website says no availability, nice
Yes, I would, where can I get additional information?
❤No. It would not hold up to our winters, but would make a great dance floor for a wedding😊 wonderful idea.
Absolutely! This would actually be perfect here in florida
Yes, I would use it. Where can I find it? Also, would there be issues with water settling underneath ?
Yes this would be great for me to fix since I’m in my sixties. Where would I get this at?
Depends on if the plastic could withstand freezing Temps.
I went to the website and this product wasn’t found. How can I find this system for a deck? Thank you
This looks like a great idea. The only thing I would wonder is what is the longevity. Heavy gauge plastic would not decay like wood.
But it would crack if you aren’t somewhere warm year round
I would need this despite the comments on heat and cold. I live in an apartment and I don't really like my concrete floor balcony this looks like a quick fix to that lmao 😅
yes cause you should improve your landlords property, instead of just using some cheap ikea runnen tiles
Renter friendly 🎉

Maybe but how do i attach footers and beams. I have a graded back yard?
Yes..I would use this product. We're interested... how can we get this product??
I've seen it at homedepot, and wayfair.
Never once seen a 'new easy decking system' be 'cheaper'. Even when made of plastic.
It's expensive
Oh my goodness…I need this in my life. Where..When..How do I get this?
How long do those clips hold up though?

Assuming the ground is already level. Where’s the product info
This is awesome!
Would ice destroy the locking mechanism?
Yes where Do I find them
Okay, but how do I secure it to THE GROUND???
I believe they expect you to glide when the time comes.
If it's on the level and not too high off the ground the deck will be safe to leave as is
Perfect fpr those who want to look atbthe deck from inside the house or sometimes tip
Toe accross
That’s great!!!
Anyone know where to find this product information at?
I love this idea. Where do I get more information?
Absolutely, now how do I get this?
i got a use for it. a floor to dance on in my basement.
He said cheap. Eveything is fuckingexpensive
I just looked and a 16 to 20 footer is $55 plus per plastic board
@@jimness5902 yea but you’d probably need like hundreds of those.. depends how big is your project is 🤷🏽♂️
@@learyan I priced out my small patio 10X16.5 and it worked out to just over $3000 CDN for the premium plastic boards I would guess that would include the base all from Home Depot
I’d like to use this inside over a radiant floor heating/cooling system
This is great. Can it go higher?
Looks very impressive and really fast. Where to get this from? Do you have any distributor in Australia?
It's made bt Arko floors. The insignia is in the video. From there Google.

What about leveling the floor the yard?
Yard??
You could.
Take this a little bit farther and make it a really good product. The way it is now Yes, I don't believe.the clips would hold Unless you were parading, it on perfectly flat concrete. But then again, who knows, zip ties hold pretty well.
What is it called. Who makes it. Where can you get it???????
Where do I buy it ?!
is this availablein india?
Yes I will where can I get them.
The question is, do the Clippers break easily?
of course they do. Just the way plastic is. Breaks down over time. Stretches and shrinks with the temperature. Like black ice with a little frost. If you can afford it. Go light color. Because you will feel the heat through any shoe.

Why can't this product be found on your website?
🎉only if locking trek boards with proper base and drainage.😊
WHERE DO U BUY THIS???
how would it account for some areas of my cement patio being sloped or uneven?
depending on application you could pour a self-levelling topping slab first.
Couldn't find this product on their website...
yes. how much is it?
Plastic hooks will fail after few cold winters and hot summers
because the engineers didn't think of that, just you and your big brain!
@@cjschmitt4882 I am an mech engineer who worked in automotive plastics industry for half a decade…. But ya what do I know…..
Until the constant heat and weather changes make the plastic clips brittle and they no longer keep even seams
What about curved areas ???😊
where can i buy this in Ireland?
You would need a perfectly level concrete or slabbed area so not really better
Perfect for renters🤩
