The Benefits of Pool Deck Coatings
If you already have a pool deck, you may wonder why you need a coating. Pool deck coatings can dramatically increase the lifespan of your original pool deck material by offering an extra layer of protection.
A pool deck coating can give a tired deck a new lease on life and protect a newer deck from the wear and tear of time, pool water, and the sun. It’s a worthwhile investment that will enhance your enjoyment of your pool area while offering several additional benefits.
Safe
Many concrete pool decks wear down over time and can become extremely slippery, especially in high-traffic areas. These slippery surfaces can lead to serious accidents, which is why having a non-slip deck coating installation can give you peace of mind.
Our pool deck coatings have textured surface that looks stylish and doesn’t wear down. Using this type of material means that you don’t have to worry about slips and falls on your decking, and instead, you can focus on having a great time.
Durable
Pool decks experience a lot of wear and tear, especially during the summer. Not only do they have to hold up to harsh UV light, but they also need to handle lots of foot traffic while also being resistant to moisture.
One of the biggest issues our clients have is water damage on their pool deck. Even concrete pool decks eventually lose their sealant, making them vulnerable to water damage and crumbling. Adding a protective layer will extend the lifespan of the original materials.
Most ordinary pool deck materials simply can’t hold up to this amount of wear and tear and require constant maintenance to keep in good condition.
Our pool deck coatings are UV-resistant and can handle abrasions from foot traffic and even chemical spills. Our pool deck epoxy coatings contain the same materials used in car shop floors, so you know they’re as tough as possible.
Having a durable pool coating means that you don’t have to worry about frequent maintenance or repairs. Instead, you can enjoy your deck all summer long and forget about it until next year, when it will still look as good as new.
Versatile
Another benefit of pool deck coatings is that they come in any style, color, and texture that you want. You can choose a unique color pattern that matches your home’s style and brings your landscaping to life.
At Premier Concrete Coatings, we use a specialized technique that creates a customized, uniform texture and pattern every time. The layering technique creates the illusion of depth and a spectrum of shades that will wow your guests and family.
No matter what your pool deck coating needs, we have the perfect solution for you.
Choosing the Right Pool Deck Coating
When it comes to coating wooden and concrete surfaces, the gold standard remains an epoxy overlay. This overlay creates an extra barrier between your deck materials and the elements, providing protection while also adding some visual flair to your pool deck.
Pool Deck Epoxy Coatings
Epoxy is a chemical compound that contains a resin and a hardening agent. The resin, a thick liquid that is easy to pour and spread around, creates a thick protective layer over your pool deck. Adding the hardening agent allows the resin to polymerize into a robust and durable coating.
Since the resin is liquid during the start of the installation, you can tailor the look and style of the epoxy coating to suit your needs.
We recommend epoxy for concrete pool deck coatings because this quick technique will protect your deck while offering a non-slip, safe, and non-toxic surface. Epoxy is a resilient material that is stain and moisture resistant, making it easy to maintain and clean.
Customize Your Pool Deck with an Epoxy Coating
Some of our most popular pool deck epoxy coatings include:
- Metallic marble epoxy
- Epoxy floor flakes
- Solid color epoxy
- Epoxy tile
Each of these coatings offers a unique look that can completely transform your pool deck. Metallic marble epoxy creates a sophisticated look, while epoxy tiles mimic granite tiles but without grout lines that need regular cleaning.
If you love the look of your deck, we can also offer transparent coating systems that retain your deck’s natural look. The deck coating installation usually takes a day to complete, leaving you with the rest of the summer to appreciate your amazing new deck.
Pool Deck Resurfacing
Our pool deck resurfacing option is great for owners who already have a concrete pool deck and want a new look. We can use our concrete pool deck coatings to spice up your old pool deck without having to pull up your old deck and installing a completely new one.
In fact, our concrete pool deck coatings take a couple of hours to apply and produce excellent results that you’ll love. We’ll work with you to discover what you want from your deck and help you choose the right coating for your needs.
