Pool Deck Coatings for Arizona
In the summer time in Arizona, the pool and pool deck is, literally, an extension of your home. These are year round spaces that get use, no matter what the weather.
In the summer, naturally, you don’t get far from your pool. What a great way to keep cooled off from the scorching heat of the desert. The water of the pool, as it splashes about can lower the ambient temperatures significantly, compared to the same sized yard next door where there is no pool.
The pool deck is a vital component in this outdoor living space in Arizona. Bare concrete would not only be too hot to walk on during the summer, but the high temperatures would literally radiate from the exposed, rough concrete surface.
Essential to this space is a concrete coating installed that can reduce the temperature enough to walk across the deck in the summer time. This is tricky. Not all coatings are made alike. Some can be just as hot (or hotter!) than un-treated concrete.
Some might be too slippery to walk on with water from the pool or after rain.
Even if these concerns are satisfied, the look of your pool deck is just a crucial as any other component in your year-round backyard resort.
What a task to meet so many criteria in deciding what to do with your Arizona Pool Deck resurface.
After all of your due diligence, in making sure you have a suitable surface for your pool deck that has a look you could just fall in love with, only find your neighbor had the same work done two and half years ago and he is now having serious issues with his pool deck coating.
Your neighbor’s beautiful pool deck surface doesn’t look as good as it did when it was first installed. In fact, parts of it are starting to de-laminate and flake off and other parts are fading horribly in the sun.
Surely, after spending so much money on this pool deck coating, the company would be responsible to repair it.
Alas, they have only a two year warranty and the company’s phone has been disconnected.
“I have to do Something with my pool deck!”, you say.
When considering your options for your pool deck resurfacing and flagstone pool deck coatings consider the following:
1. How many years has the company been in business?
2. What is the warranty for the work to be done?
3. What kind of maintenance is necessary to keep it looking good and functional?
Maintenance should be a big concern. After spending a small fortune to create your new beautiful pool deck finish, do you have to continue to spend money year after year to maintain it?
Finally,
1. Ask for references
2. Check their standing and record with the state registrar of contractors (or equivalent agency in your state).
3. Ask to see their finished projects. Often-times, small samples shown by the salesman do not reflect an accurate representation of the typical work their company performs.
These guidelines can be helpful as you look for a qualified company to perform your work. It is a very big investment not to be more certain of the outcome.
If you find the right company to do concrete coatings in Arizona right the first time, and the product they install is durable and beautifully installed, you will have a show-piece to enjoy for a lifetime.
