Pool Decks and Surrounds

Cool, non-slip, handsome surfaces around the pool, with coping, steps and planted borders that tie the whole space together.

The area around a pool is where a yard becomes a resort. Surfaces need to stay comfortable under bare feet, resist chlorine and sun, drain quickly and look good against blue water. Materials and details matter more here than almost anywhere else.

We build pool decks and surrounds around existing pools with pavers, travertine, natural stone and decorative concrete, plus coping, steps, seat walls and planted borders. We coordinate with your pool contractor on levels, drains and expansion joints so everything meets cleanly.

Cool and non-slip

Light-colored pavers and travertine stay cooler in the sun. Textured finishes provide grip when wet. We help you choose surfaces that are comfortable for bare feet and safe for kids and guests.

Drainage and expansion

Water has to move off the deck, away from the pool and into planned drains. Pool decks also move with temperature, so expansion joints and flexible joint materials matter. We build these details in from the start.

Coping, steps and edges

The coping stone is the finishing detail of the pool edge. We install stone or paver coping with clean joints, add steps and benches where needed and plan planting beds so leaves and debris do not collect.

Safety around water

Pool surfaces should be non-slip, gently sloped away from the water and free of trip hazards at edges. Handrails, benches and gate details contribute to safety. We discuss local safety requirements with you and coordinate with your pool builder.

Questions

Pool Decks FAQ

What is the best pool deck material?

It depends on sun, budget and style. Travertine and light pavers stay cool, stamped concrete is economical and natural stone is classic. See our material guides.

Can you build around an existing pool?

Yes. Most of our pool deck work is around existing pools, and we match levels and drains carefully.

Is chlorine hard on pavers?

Quality pavers handle it well. Salt water can affect some natural stone, so we choose materials with that in mind.

Do you build pools?

We focus on decks, surrounds and the landscape around the pool and coordinate with your pool builder.

Can you replace an old pool deck?

Yes. We remove old concrete or pavers, correct the base and rebuild with new materials around the existing pool.
