Balconyguard™ Membrane is a 60-mil, self-adhesive waterproofing membrane to be used specifically on wood deck balcony structures that will be covered with lightweight concrete. Our Balconyguard™ System includes custom corner boots for ease of installation and detailing, and to save time and money on the jobsite. Balconyguard™ is a perfect solution for apartment and mulit-family construction as well as projects with a large number of balconies or decks.
