Every project starts with a free on-site estimate. We visit your home, measure the pool area, look at the slope and drainage, and check the condition of the existing deck. We talk through the layout, paver styles, colors, and textures, and any extras like seating areas, steps, or a connecting walkway. You then receive a clear written quote, and once you approve it we schedule the work and mark out underground utility lines before any digging begins.

On installation day, we lay out the deck and set the finished height so it sits correctly against the pool coping and the back of your home, sloping gently away from the pool and house to shed water. We remove the old surface, excavate to the proper depth, and compact the soil underneath. We then install crushed aggregate in thin layers, compacting each one with a plate compactor until the base is firm, dense, and perfectly graded.

Once the base is ready, we install strong edge restraint along the borders and spread a smooth, consistent layer of bedding sand, screeded to the correct level. The pavers are laid by hand in your chosen pattern with tight, even joints, and we use a saw to cut pavers around the pool edge, curves, and borders for clean, precise lines. We then compact the pavers into the sand, sweep polymeric joint sand into every joint, and compact once more so the surface locks together. To finish, we activate the joint sand, clean the entire surface, grade soil along the edges, and remove all debris. We then walk the finished deck with you and review simple care tips. You get a stable, level, slip-resistant pool deck that is ready to enjoy.
