Careful Craftsmanship Below Your Feet

Odom Design strives to stand apart from the competition in the crowded Myrtle Beach home building market. Sadly, even with high-end new construction, the quality craftsmanship and attention to detail isn’t always there. At the rate and volume with which many companies construct new homes, it’s not surprising. To really build a home to last, you need to sometimes go behind the standard practice. This is especially true for exteriors and water-prone areas in our coastal South Carolina region. To give prospective homebuyers a better idea of Odom Design’s commitment to quality material and design, let’s take a look at our waterstop process for porches and patios.

7 Layers of Protection with KBRS and Schluter-DITRA

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is no stranger to flooding and heavy downpours. Water finds its way through cracks or poor sealing and can quickly result in visible cracks. Surface cracks are an eye sore and don’t look particularly nice even when repaired. The best way to keep water out is with quality materials and smart design. Here’s how we do it:pressure treated ground contact lumber.

The Schluter-DITRA addition is particularly helpful in our area. In addition to its waterproofing abilities, the “free space” design on the underside creates pockets for excess moisture to reside so it doesn’t expand and crack the layer above.

Fine Homebuilding and Attention to Detail

If we put this type of planning and care into what goes under your patio, imagine how we approach everything else.
