‘WE ARE A TRULY GLOBAL OPERATION – WE MIGHT GO TO THE MALDIVES TO DIGITIZE A DECK, ENGINEER IT IN THE US, BUILD IN VALENCIA, AND INSTALL IT IN MALTA.’

ALAN BROSILOW, CONSULTANT TDS


LEADING THE INDUSTRY

As an employee-owned company (ESOP) with over 150 employees we can respond quickly to changing requirements and share fresh ideas that foster continual improvement. Producing our own products maximizes quality and performance, while our idea to pre-manufacture decks, floors and other features of any size was a ground-breaking step forward for our industry.


CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

We never stop looking for new ways to enhance the customer experience and the quality of our decking solutions. Whether it’s how they look, how long they last, how they are installed and maintained, or the materials used.

HOW MUCH DOES A NEW DECK COST?


While many deck companies in the market focus primarily on offering the lowest prices, TDS stands out for its exceptional craftmanship, customization, project management, warranty and after-sales services. If your main concern is cost alone, TDS might not be the ideal choice for you, as the value of a TDS deck is the years it will last and the quality of products used in its manufacture.  

 

Unlike some industry practices where low estimates are used to win jobs, only to introduce numerous change orders later, we are committed to transparency and thoroughness from the beginning. We encourage caution with quotes that seem too good to be true, as they often exclude critical aspects of the project. Our approach includes a comprehensive project review upfront, minimizing the likelihood of unexpected costly changes.


For polyurethane composite decks, TDS CompositeDeck, SeaSole, Esthec, and Herculan are among the top products available in the market. While they are more expensive than EVA foam and PVC, their longevity makes them a worthwhile investment. The cost of polyurethane composite decking is not considerably cheaper than teak, but it offers the added benefits of durability and low maintenance.


Similarily, the price of a cork deck from Navicork by Amorim is comparable to that of polyurethane composite decking.


Estimating a single price for your decking project is challenging due to the many factors that influence the cost:

  • Deck Design: Whether the deck is straight or curved
  • Subdeck Condition: Until the old deck is removed, we will not know the condition of the subdeck and deck substrate, which can only be assessed after the old deck is removed
  • Material Selection: The type of teak selected, batten length, width, thickness, and layout complexity
  • Polyurethane Composite Choices: Will depend on the polyurethane composite product chosen, deck thickness, and layout complexity
  • Cork Considerations: Will depend on deck thickness, and layout complexity
  • Installation: During installation, the vessel must be protected from the weather in either a tent or inside a shed at a boat yard
  • Vessel location: The location for digital templating and installation


By considering these factors, we can provide a tailored and accurate estimate for your project. Our goal is to ensure you receive a high-quality deck that meets your needs and stands the test of time.


LIMITED WARRANTY

  1. TDS warrants that the products supplied by TDS conform to technical specifications and that the teak battens or composite deck panels will be affixed in their positions to the backing indefinitely, subject to normal wear and tear and proper care.
  2. For teak decking, TDS assumes liability to repair or replace such merchandise that is proven substandard. In the case of teak, the primary ingredient in our decks and floors, wood, is a natural, organic material, which behaves according to its own rules. Although we carefully select the highest quality, good grain kiln dried wood available; and then cull the best of that for our deck and floors, occasionally a plank will crack. Even though we cannot control the internal structure of the wood, TDS will provide the materials to repair or replace the plank for up to one year. If a deck cannot be serviced at one of our three TDS locations, we will charge for TSL&L (transport, subsistence, lodging and logistics) required to make the repair.
  3. For composite decking, TDS warrants that products supplied by TDS conform to our technical specifications. TDS assumes liability to repair and replace Composite decking that is proven substandard. TDS will provide the materials to repair or replace the composite deck for up to two years at no charge. If deck cannot be serviced at one of our three TDS locations, we will charge for TSL&L (transport, subsistence, lodging and logistics) required to make the repair.
  4. TDS does not assume any responsibility to replace a teak, composite or cork deck that has been worn out due to improper maintenance. Please read thoroughly our website for information about proper care and maintenance of your new deck.
  5. If installation of a deck has been performed or supervised by TDS, then TDS warrants the installation for a period of one year.
  6. Should a warranty problem arise, and it is not possible to perform the work in the Tampa Bay or Ft. Lauderdale area of Florida, or Valencia, Spain, the customer will be responsible for TSL&L (transport, subsistence, lodging and logistics) for the TDS technician to travel to the vessel.
  7. TDS shall not be responsible for any consequential economic damages, damages to property, damages for loss of use, or any other incidental damages.


This warranty is transferable and shall be enforced according to the laws of the State of Florida.
