Presentation is everything when it comes to your pool. You can have the most impressive design, the most incredible features, but it can all fall flat if you aren’t surrounding your pool with the best deck possible. Some people may use wood to surround their pool area, but you may want to go for something a little more classic. Stones are a great choice for a pool deck material; read on to find out the different types you can use.
1: Limestone
Many pool builders use this natural stone because of its flexibility and durability. Limestone can stand up to extreme weather changes and lasts for many years at a time when properly cared for. It can also be easily cut into slabs, and comes in a variety of colors, so the style of your pool isn’t sacrificed.
2: Coral Stone
If you’re looking for something a little less susceptive to heat, you may want to look into coral stones. It only absorbs a small amount of heat during the day and can withstand heavy foot traffic. Because it is made of a composite, meaning there are multiple materials in this stone, it is sturdy and can stand up to the elements.
3: Travertine
This is among one of the best types of stone you could be using, albeit while donning a hefty price tag. It’s used most frequently for luxury pools. Travertine is porous, and so it absorbs water instantly; this allows the deck to be slip-free. It also stays cool during hot days, and stands up to freezing temperatures quite well.
4: Flagstone
In terms of originality, flagstone is your best bet. It can be crafted into so many shapes and colors that it has become quite popular with most residential projects. It’s durable, accessible, and customizable.
