Decks complement pools perfectly. They provide space for relaxing under the sun after an invigorating swim, create an area for cookouts and other entertainment with family and friends, and simply add to the overall look of backyards. If your pool needs a deck, consider these benefits of concrete. There’s a reason it’s the go-to material for pools across the country.

4 Reasons Your Pool Needs a Concrete Deck

Affordability

Concrete provides an affordable pool deck choice that accommodates almost any budget. Purchasing and installation costs are significantly less than stone or tile. If you opt for stamped concrete, you can create a beautiful customized look, such as one that mimics the appearance of flagstone or slate. Colored, stained, and patterned options are also available to complement your home’s look.

Aesthetics

Since concrete comes in a wide array of styles and colors, it easily enhances your pool area. Get it painted to provide a finishing touch to your backyard or choose a unique pattern such as a sanded slate texture to create a rustic look. Even unstamped accessories such as pavers add to the look and feel of your backyard oasis.

Maintenance

Maintaining a concrete deck requires little effort since it’s impervious to rot, fire, and rust. In addition to the occasional sweeping to clear leaves and other debris, it benefits from resealing every two to three years to keep it in good condition. This is especially important if you’ve applied a paint job since it will eventually fade under the sun.

Eco-Friendliness

Concrete mainly consists of limestone, one of Earth’s most abundant natural resources. Other ingredients include industrial waste byproducts to create less trash and subsequently more room in landfills. And because it’s typically a locally sourced material, it reduces air pollution from transportation.
