Concrete Contractors Upgrade Paving Around the Swimming Pool

Residential property owners who have an inground swimming pool in the backyard may, at some point, decide to have the deck area expanded or even turned into a poolside patio. They'll want 1 Concrete Contractors Vancouver to complete this project according to their specifications. The work will turn the pool area into a true outdoor living space where the residents and their guests can have fun throughout the warm-weather months.

A Particular Design

The customers may want a particular design to be built by 1 Concrete Contractors Vancouver. They might ask for colored or stamped concrete, for instance, or a certain kind of texture. Textured pavement around and close to swimming pools is common to prevent slipping on the wet surface. The customers also might have a relatively uncommon patio style in mind, such as a textured horseshoe around a smooth-surface cooking area. The patio might have some rounded areas instead of being simply a square or a rectangle.

A Paved Path

A contractor such as Iron Trident Concrete can also add a paved path or sidewalk from the pool area to a back or side door of the home. Homeowners may like this idea because it helps stop anyone from tracking mud, dirt, grass or leaves into the house. That's a typical problem when people are outside with wet bare feet.

Repair and Replacement Work

If the original pool deck has been in place for many years, it may have become uneven or developed a crack or two. Tree roots may have caused some damage, or there may have been an aggregate stone pop-out that has always been irritating to the property owners. Depending on the situation, the workers may be able to repair the problem. Otherwise, replacement of the slabs that were affected can be done.

Replacement of the entire pavement may be wanted by some property owners who insist on their pool area looking almost perfect. The workers break up and remove the old material, level and prepare the ground surface, and then pour new cement. A smooth or broom finish can be completed, or the customers may choose something entirely different.
