Swimming pool decks come in a variety of materials, including concrete, wood, and composite decking. If you want to go for a sophisticated look with practical features, consider using pavers. Here are just a few of the advantages of pavers around your pool.

Why Use Pavers for Your Pool Deck?

1. Strong and Durable

A stone paver pool deck will last for many years. These natural materials are strong and durable, so you can expect them to withstand normal wear and tear from splashing pool water, foot traffic, and severe weather conditions better than other materials.

2. Slip-Resistant

Whether you have children, pets, elderly family members, or simply wish to enhance safety around your swimming pool, slip resistance should be considered for safety reasons. Fortunately, no matter how wet they get, pavers don't get slippery. Your family can have fun and enjoy the pool without worrying about accidents and injuries from falls.

3. Low Maintenance

A paver pool deck is not very absorbent, meaning the stone does not collect much dirt, oil, or other spills that can make some deck materials look dingy. Regular cleaning is necessary to prevent mold growth, maintain the pavers' appearance, and increase their life span, but all you need to do is clean up with a brush or push broom and hose down the surface. Use a mild detergent and clean water to scrub away stubborn buildup or stains.

4. Easy to Repair

While pavers are highly durable, they may be damaged by unusually heavy use or when something heavy is dropped on them. In rare instances when they do crack or come loose, repairs are quick, easy, and low-cost. Just remove and replace the individual paver.

5. Versatile Styles

One of the greatest appeals of pavers is their elegant appearance and versatility. These pool deck materials come in many sizes, colors, textures, and styles to suit your landscape design and personal preferences. They have a natural appearance, and since every paver is unique, they can be arranged to create interesting patterns for endless possibilities.
