Pool decks in Phoenix get used hard for much of the year, and with 111 days a year at 100°F or hotter, they take a lot of sun. When the deck cracks, a section lifts near the coping, or water sits in puddles, it's a trip and slip hazard right next to the water. We pour new deck sections and replace broken ones, and we can walk your yard the same week you call.
When You Need Pool Decks
You need deck work when sections have cracked through or lifted, when there's a lip between panels, when water ponds on the deck instead of draining, or when the surface has worn so smooth it's slick when wet. Adding deck space around a pool is another common reason.
Don't wait on a lifted panel by the pool. Wet feet and a raised edge are a bad mix, and water that gets under cracked sections makes them move more.
Pool decks crack for the same reasons other slabs do, plus a few of their own. Splash-out and backwash water soak the ground at the edges, and the deck has to meet the pool coping cleanly without pushing against it. Sections right next to the coping are often the first to lift.
Our Pool Decks Process
At the site walk we look at the damaged sections, the drainage and how the deck meets the pool. You get a written bid within 24 hours.
On the job, we sawcut and remove the broken sections, haul them off, grade and compact the base, set forms and wire mesh and pour 4,000 psi concrete. We slope the deck so water runs away from the pool and the house, and give it a finish with grip for bare feet. We cut control joints and clean up. In summer we pour early in the day so the new concrete doesn't dry out too fast.
Before the pour, we'll go over how the new deck meets the pool coping, the drains and any equipment pads, and keep debris out of the water while we work. If the pool equipment needs a new pad, we can pour it on the same visit.
Keep everyone off the new deck until we say it's ready. With a standard mix, foot traffic is fine in 24 to 48 hours.
Pool Decks Cost in Phoenix
Cost depends on how much deck is being replaced or added, access to the backyard, how the deck meets the pool, drainage needs and the finish. Partial replacements cost more per square foot than a full deck.
Your written bid lists every step, and the price is fixed to that scope.
We haul off all the broken concrete and clean up so the yard and pool area are ready to use as soon as the deck is.
