Introduction

Nurajacks are adjustable pedestals designed to support floating deck surfaces over membrane roofs and decks. 


Used extensively across New Zealand in residential balconies, commercial rooftop terraces, and public spaces, they provide a level and stable base for pavers or timber decking without penetrating the waterproofing below. 


Nurajacks help protect the membrane by elevating the surface above water runoff, allowing for airflow and quick drainage. Nurajacks are height-adjustable with self-levelling heads that compensate for uneven substrates and membranes laid to falls. Compatible with tiles, pavers, timber, and aluminium joists, they suit a wide range of applications. With accessories like Nuragrid and wind-resistant options, there's a Nurajack solution for every project.


They are a smart solution for lightweight, serviceable rooftop decks. Backed by years of in-field use and full technical support, Nurajacks give specifiers flexibility and confidence in their decking designs.

Considerations

  • By combining Nurajacks with Nuraply membranes you gain the confidence that comes from working with a single supplier. With decades of in-service use, Nurajacks are demonstrably compatible with all sheet based membranes supplied in New Zealand. Over liquid membranes, confirm compatibility with the membrane supplier.  


  • Not suitable on unstable or erodible surfaces: Requires a firm, level substrate — avoid use on soft ground, waterlogged soil, or unprepared subgrades without proper engineering.


  • Not designed for vehicle loads: Nurajacks are engineered for pedestrian traffic only — they must not be used on driveable surfaces such as car parks or driveways.

FAQs

What are Nurajacks and how are they used in deck construction?
Nurajacks are height-adjustable pedestals that provide level support for floating deck systems over waterproofed roofs or to create level entries over stable non-eroding surfaces. They create a stable support for tiles, pavers, timber or aluminium joists for decking over the underlying membrane or surface. They are designed to protect the underlying membrane from damage.
Are Nurajacks adjustable for roof slope correction?
Yes, Nurajacks feature a self-levelling head, eliminating the need for shims or other devices to achieve a level deck. This prevents point-loading on the membrane, preserving its integrity. The system ensures a level deck surface while maintaining the correct falls in the membrane for effective drainage.
How do Nurajacks support wind-resistant installation?
Nurajacks are engineered to support tiles and pavers, and when paired with complementary accessories, they deliver strong resistance to wind uplift. The interlocking design and robust construction of these components enhance deck stability in high-wind environments, making the system ideal for both residential and commercial architectural applications.
