Quick Links: Introduction | Safety | Cost | Customization
'Pool deck repair' is one of the most widely searched terms on Google in the home services industry in Alabama. Why? Because concrete, tile, and wood pool decks sink, crack, fade, and wear out. 'Pool deck resurfacing' is also a popular search term for those with kids because concrete pool decks are hard, dangerous, and lead to serious injury or death.

Safety Considerations
Over two decades ago, Dr. John T. McElveen founded Carolina Ear & Hearing Clinic, PC, a private medical and surgical practice specializing in the diseases of the ear. As experts in Otology and Neurotology, our team focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving the ear, its related skull base structures, and specific areas of the central nervous system. Both are highly specialized areas, requiring at least five years of residency training, in addition to completion of medical school and Otology and Neurotology fellowship training.
We consider safety to be one of the biggest factors when choosing a pool deck. There are too many stories of tragedies involving pools and we are proud to install a product that reduces serious injury and deaths.
When you choose a pool deck surface, consider who will be using the pool regularly and who might be visiting. If you are a grandparent that loves having your grandkids in the pool, consider the fact that kids like to run and play. A slip and fall can turn a wonderful afternoon into a nightmare.
If you have small children, consider the heat put off by concrete and even wood. These surfaces can get very hot and leave feat read and irritated.
Cost Considerations
Whether you are looking for a pool deck repair company near you or a contractor to completely replace or resurface a pool deck, cost is an obvious factor.
When you consider the cost of repouring a concrete pool deck, keep in mind there will be a demolition period, an application or concrete pouring phase, and an extended curing time. To keep your concrete pool deck in good order you'll want to seal the deck as well. This will need to happen every couple of years to extend the life of the concrete.
Wood pool decks are more expensive now than ever because of the cost of lumber and transporting lumber from places like Canada. What used to be an affordable pool deck or patio is now double the price. Factor in the annual or bi-annual maintenance and things can get even more expensive.
Rubber Stone isn't the cheapest option but with proper maintenance, will last much longer than the other options and look almost as good 15, even 20 years later. The time it takes to apply Rubber Stone is considerably less than Concrete because of the drying time.
Customization Consideration
Are you looking for a pool deck that is one-of-a-kind? There are some excellent concrete contractors and wood workers that can do amazing things with their products, but one problem exists for both of them, you can't change the weather.
A beautifully crafted wood pool deck eventually shrinks, leaving gaps between joints. If a wood deck isn't sealed, wood warps and begins to splinter. Not a great thing for bare feet.
Concrete can be stamped, colored, textured and manipulated to look like stone, marble, rock and more. We've seen some truly amazing concrete pool decks. Again, weather takes a huge toll on concrete. Colors fade, concrete cracks, and what was once a picturesque pool deck now shows the signs of deterioration.
Rubber Stone offers the same ability to colorize, manipulate, and even transform into unique shapes. The best part, what we create will stand up to the weather year after year. Apply epoxy every few years.
Customizations for any surface are going to increase the cost, but it's important to make sure your investment will stand the test of time.
