LOBOTM Pedestal Cost

The cost of LOBOTM Pedestals depends on the number of pedestals needed to support the elevated deck and also varies based on the height and number of elevation changes that need to be accommodated. Another factor in calculating the cost of a LOBOTM Pedestal project is the type of deck material used as well as the load requirements. The LOBOTM Model S is rated for decks with cavity depths up to 12″ and 1,000 lbs. per pedestal, the Model M can be installed where deck cavities of up to 30″ are needed, and the Model G supports depths up to 62″. Tile choice also has a direct impact on the number of pedestals need to complete the project. The cost of pedestals on an elevated deck depends on the number of pedestals required. Different tile materials will affect the number of pedestals needed. Since all tiles share a pedestal with another adjacent tile, typically one pedestal is required per 24” x 24” tile. By providing your basic project details, including the square footage, elevation, and shipping zip code, the cost of LOBOTM Pedestals along with tile and shipping can be calculated. Some tiles will require more pedestals depending on their structural integrity and a tile backing tray is always required to ensure structural support.

How Tall Are Bison Pedestals?

The Bison Pedestals come in 2 formats to accommodate varying project requirements. These include the Bison Versadjust and Level.IT Pedestals. Using couplers, the Level.IT Pedestal can be configured as tall as 24″ in height.

The Versadjust Pedestal can reach heights of 24″ without additional bracing, and heights of 36″ with the use of additional bracing.

The Bison Pedestal system starts with heights as low as 1/8″.

Bison pedestal Installation

The Bison Pedestal system is easy to install for the perfect rooftop deck system. First, clear the rooftop area of debris and rinse with water. Next, determine your tile layout and snap a chalk-line grid. Begin placing the Bison Pedestals in the intersections of the layout.  Level the pedestal using a small torpedo level or target level.   Next, adjust the pedestal height in accordance with your finished height, allowing for the thickness of your deck material. Place your tile on the 4 pedestals. Make any adjustments so the tile is level and fully supported by the corners.  Continue to the next tile.  Make sure all sides of the perimeter of the deck is “contained”, or physically butting up to the building, wall, curb, etc.
