Frequently Asked Questions
SeaDek is a safe and comfortable alternative to non-skid and carpet options currently on the market. It is made from closed cell PE/EVA foam and is semi-permanently applied with an acrylic based high-bond pressure sensitive adhesive. It is available in a variety of colour options and textures, and is custom designed and cut for your specific application.
Dek Clean by CMD.
Alternatively, soap and water with a stiff brush works well.
Do not use acid-based cleaners.
In harsh conditions (such as wakeboard boat swim platforms) SeaDek can be expected to last 5 – 7 years. If the boat/area is covered, longer life is likely. (FYI our cockpit SeaDek was installed in 2014. It still looks great and adheres well.)
SeaDek does not absorb water so it dries quickly, making it an excellent replacement for carpet.
SeaDek is extremely stain resistant, however a few substances, such as fuel stabilizers, bird droppings, rust, and mustard can be problematic if not attended to in a timely manner. Prompt attention to these types of spills will ensure easy removal. (See cleaning).
Many people use SeaDek to keep pets firmly planted on the boat, however SeaDek is made from PE/EVA blended foam materials, so if scratched or clawed at enough, the product will tear or rip. With this being said, SeaDek’s closed-cell material will not absorb water if punctured. SeaDek is not warranted against pet damage.

If you want us to design/install SeaDek for you:
1) We will attend to and digitally measure the spaces in your boat you want to place the SeaDek. We then turn this into a C.A.D. design/layout for your approval, along with a firm quote. (We require the layout and measurements to accurately calculate the amount of SeaDek product required).
2) Once approved by you, we will print the pieces on paper and fit them to your boat to confirm that we have everything correct. (Size, shape, curves, etc. ) and then make any minor changes as required.
3) Dry-fit completed, we are now ready to order your custom SeaDek. We require 75% of the total quote at this time. Once cut, the SeaDek is only good for your boat.
4) Our fabricator will custom cut your project on it’s state of the art CNC router tables and ship it to us.
5) We will then arrange to install it on your boat. Your new SeaDek is now complete and can be used immediately.
Timing is typically 4-6 weeks from start to finish. Weather can be a large factor as we can’t really do these things in rain or high winds.
