Pool Decks

A pool deck needs to do three things well: stay cool underfoot, stay slip-resistant when wet, and look like a resort. We build pool surrounds in travertine and sealed pavers that deliver all three.

Travertine pool deck and lanai by North Lion

Cool, slip-resistant pool surrounds built to handle Florida weather.

The Work

Pool decks take a beating — chlorinated and salt water, full sun, bare feet, and constant moisture. We choose materials and finishes that handle all of it, with proper slope so water sheets off rather than pooling.

From the coping edge to the surrounding field, every pool deck is finished with seamless transitions and a sealed surface that resists staining.

What's Included

Cool-Touch Materials

Travertine and light-toned sealed pavers that stay comfortable barefoot.

Slip-Resistant Finish

Textures that stay grippy when wet for safe barefoot traffic.

Proper Slope

Grade set so water sheets off the deck, not toward the home or pool equipment.

Seamless Coping

Bullnose coping that finishes the pool edge cleanly and safely.

Our Process

01

Measure & Slope

We measure the surround and set the slope plan for drainage.

02

Base & Coping

Base prepped and pool coping set first to establish the edge.

03

Field & Grout

Deck field laid out from the coping and grouted.

04

Seal

Penetrating sealer applied to resist water and staining.

Frequently Asked

What's the best material for a pool deck?

Travertine is our top pick — it stays cool, is slip-resistant, and handles pool water well. We'll review options during the estimate.

Can you replace just the deck around an existing pool?

Yes. We work around existing pools and equipment to replace or upgrade the surrounding deck.
