Resurfacing outdoor surfaces is becoming an even more popular topic in trade publications and consumer magazines. In the words of an editor friend at Harris Publications (and we agree), resurfacing will continue to increase in homeowner interest based upon the current real estate market. With people staying in their homes longer, remodeling and renovation are the norm more so now than in recent years. Thus, our next National Hardware Show “Sneak Peek,” the new Solar Decking Tiles from Mr. Light. (Note: Check back on the product’s site – linked above – for details later if needed, as this is a new item being launched).
These snap-together outdoor solar decking tiles are a means for homeowners to resurface or remodel their old concrete patios, balconies, rooftop decks, and old wood decks quickly and easily. As with all the better DIY projects for busy people these days, installation is simple and comes without all the hard work of conventional installation methods.
After writing probably hundreds of outdoor room and deck articles over the years, we have learned a thing or two about decking, resurfacing, and the like. Our team agrees these tiles are viable options. They can be installed over almost any hard surface like concrete, brick, asphalt, existing wood decks, compacted gravel, other tiles, and even bare ground (with proper preparation) – just by snapping the tiles together.
Those lucky enough to be in Vegas at the show next week can see the Solar Decking Tiles at booth # 11962.
