POOL DECK COATING COMMON CHALLENGES

POOL DECK COATING COMMON CHALLENGES When choosing the best pool deck coating for your pool, consider these pool deck coating common challenges. Pool deck coatings are a great way to make your pool slip-resistant, cool to the touch, and protect the concrete from deterioration, but it is important to consider the challenges that come with most deck coatings and the benefits of paying more upfront for a high performance and durable pool deck coating system instead of re-coating it every couple years.   WHAT IS A POOL DECK COATING?   A pool deck coating is a protective material that is applied to a slab of concrete to make the pool deck safer and more durable. Pool deck coatings should be able to withstand the hot summer days and UV rays, as well as withstand the freeze-thaw winter environments. Some pool deck coatings are like paint, which can do well in environments that do not experience freeze-thaw, and others are more decorative and require sealer to be constantly reapplied.

POOL DECK COATING OPTIONS

REVIEW OF POOL DECK COATING OPTIONS There are many different options from which to choose when it comes to repairing your pool deck, and pool deck coatings are often a cost-effective solution, especially in comparison to replacing the concrete. Pool deck coatings come in all shapes and sizes, from cheap paint-on coatings to brilliant, designer, durable coatings. We’ll explain what to look for when deciding which system is best for your project by reviewing each of the following systems: Pebble Technology, Paint, Cement-based Coatings, Vinyl Chip, and Sandbroadcast. REPLACE YOUR POOL DECK OR INSTALL A COATING? First, when do you know when it’s time to replace your concrete vs. install a coating? Many people tell us that their pool is probably chipping, cracking, heaving, or spalling way too much for a coating. Sometimes this is true, however, often we can install our coating system after we repair and prep the surface. This often involves: cleaning the surface, filling cracks, patching spalled surfaces, grinding the surface, and washing again to ensure the coating adheres. We can handle multiple repair issues, but […]

APARTMENT COMPLEX POOL DECK COATING

 A POOL DECK COATING IS A PERFECT OPTION FOR MULTI-FAMILY AND HOME OWNER’S ASSOCIATIONS! Last week we finished a pool deck coating at an apartment complex in Westminster, Colorado. In only five days we transformed the 4,000 square foot deck into a beautiful, slip-resistant, and durable pool deck. This kept the property management company from having to rip out and replace the pool deck, which would have been more costly and would have made more of a disturbance in the daily operations. Our crew was excited to do this project! The pool deck needed some patching and minor repairs here and there, and we were up for the task! We had beautiful weather and the on-site team was great to work with. Even the residents stopped by to say hi when they passed by, asking us lots of questions about their new pool deck coating. The pool deck needed repairs, however, it was in good enough condition to opt for the pool deck resurface instead of replacing it. Some things to look for when deciding whether to replace the concrete or […]

YOUR FAVORITE BEACH SPOT, RIGHT IN YOUR BACKYARD.

Pool Deck Coating Colorado Concrete Repair finished a pool deck coating for a Greenwood Village community pool April 2016. The pool deck needed repairs before we coated it, so we went straight to work patching, grinding, and overall prepping the concrete surface, so that the coating would adhere and last a long time. The project took us one week and now the pool is ready to be used for the season. Luckily we finished it right before a spring snow storm hit! We take pride in prepping each surface before we apply a coating or sealing the concrete.
