Our crew pours and finishes decks around new and existing pools using textured, slip-resistant surfaces and lighter colors that hold less heat through a North Texas summer.
Cool, slip-resistant finishes
The finish is everything around a pool. Broom texture, exposed aggregate, knock-down overlays, and textured stamped patterns all give bare feet grip on a wet surface. Lighter colors reflect heat so the deck is comfortable to stand on when the sun is high.
Our crew can also resurface a hot, slick, or dated deck with a cool-deck overlay rather than tearing it out, which refreshes the look and the footing in less time.
Drainage and layout that protect the pool
A pool deck is sloped to carry splash-out and rain away from the coping and into drains or the yard, never back into the pool or against the house. Proper jointing around the deck controls cracking, and expansion material at the coping lets the deck and the pool shell move independently.
On sloped Cedar Hill lots, that drainage plan matters even more, since water has somewhere it wants to go and the deck has to direct it.
New decks and resurfacing
For a new pool, the deck is poured to fit the shape, the equipment, and how you move around the water. For an older pool, resurfacing or an overlay can transform a worn deck without disturbing the pool itself.
Either way, the surface is sealed to resist pool chemicals, sunscreen, and UV so it stays sound and keeps its color season after season.
Comfort and safety around the water
A pool deck has a tougher job than most flatwork: it has to stay cool enough to walk on barefoot in a Texas July, grip when it is wet, and resist the chemicals and sunscreen that attack a finish. Our crew picks a light color and a textured or overlay finish that checks all three, so the deck is comfortable and safe through the swimming season.
Layout protects the pool itself. The deck is sloped to carry splash-out and rain to drains or the yard, expansion material at the coping lets the deck and shell move on their own, and the jointing controls cracking across the slab. On a sloped lot, that drainage plan is what keeps water and soil where they belong.
Coordination with the pool build matters. When the deck and the pool go in together, the coping detail and the expansion joint are planned as one so the two never fight each other as the ground moves. On an existing pool, the crew works carefully around the shell and equipment so the deck upgrade does not put the pool at risk.
