Upgrading Your Concrete Pool Deck in Jacksonville

by | Nov 10, 2023

In Jacksonville, you might have a concrete pool deck that has served you well for many years. Over time, that concrete will become stained and cracked, ruining the backyard aesthetics that you strive for¬–and even be a safety hazard for swimmers.

Here are some of the ways you can upgrade!

Upgrading Your Concrete Pool Deck

You have quite a few options at your disposal when it comes to upgrading your pool deck. The first thing first is resurfacing your pool deck. If the concrete of your pool deck has cracks, stains, and rough patches, resurfacing will repair these unseemly issues with your pool deck. But the resurfacing of your deck can be upgraded with a few aesthetic and functional properties that can improve your backyard experience. Here are just a few:

Color Treatment

There are a few methods that can be used to add color to your new pool deck surface. You can go the route of integral coloring, which gives your pool deck a uniform and consistent colored base, or you can go with other options such as color hardeners and surface applied. Color hardeners utilize a dry shake powder that is applied to the concrete surface; it provides a greater color palette and increases the strength of the surface. Surface-applied color are dyes and stains that can be used in conjunction with integral coloring and color hardeners.

Exposed Pool Deck Aggregates

Exposed pool deck aggregates serve both functional and decorative purposes. You can have your new pool deck surface mixed with pebbles and stones, giving your backyard a gorgeous look while also providing a textured finish that can improve the traction between the ground and bare feet.

Sealer

Water and pool chemicals would overtime destroy any concrete pool deck that is left bare– this is why sealers are applied. Sealers protect the porous concrete while also adding other properties. Sealers like silane siloxane concrete sealers can protect your pool deck by repelling water for up to 10 years. Some sealers, like acrylic concrete sealers, can give your pool deck a glossy look and can stop dusting. Other sealants have anti-slip attributes that can create a safer pool experience.

There are many options for improving and revitalizing your concrete pool deck. From an expansive color palette, textured pool deck aggregates, and special sealers–there is much that can be done to improve your pool deck, and a professional pool company like Classic Marcite can help!
