Concrete Pool Decks in Rogers AR - Poured to Hold Up Through Freezing Winters
Concrete around your pool cracked, chipped or sinking? We tear it out and pour a new deck made for freezing winters.
What goes into a concrete pool deckbuilt for Rogers winters
Most calls about concrete pool decks in Rogers, AR start the same way. The concrete around the pool has cracked, chipped along the edge or settled, so water stands where everybody walks. Usually the trouble traces back to what's under the slab or the seam where the deck meets the coping, the cap along the top of the pool wall.
We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab rests on, because a base that's only raked level settles with the dirt. Where the deck meets the coping, we leave a flexible joint so the two can move without damaging each other, and I'll point it out so you can keep an eye on its caulk over the years.
The price turns on the deck's size, whether an old deck has to come out and get hauled away, how much work the ground needs and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on the weather and on leaving the concrete time to cure, the weeks it spends gaining strength, before the first hard freeze. Your on-site estimate gives you your own figure.
Call (479) 413-0106 and we'll talk through your pool deck up front, so you know what you're getting before anything is poured.
Concrete pool deck jobs we take on
Every pool deck starts from what's there now, so we plan around your pool, the old concrete if there is any and how your family uses the space.
A deck for a new pool
When the pool is going in, we pour the deck after the coping is set, working around the pool builder's schedule so the two jobs line up.
Replacing an old deck
When the old deck is cracked or sinking, we break it out and haul it away, then rebuild the base before new concrete goes down.
Steps off the deck
If the deck needs steps down to the yard or up to the door, we pour them to match, the same way we build concrete steps.

Pool deck questions we hear
How much does a concrete pool deck cost in Rogers, AR?
Installing a concrete pool deck usually costs about $10.50 to $12 per square foot across the US, so take that as a national starting point, not a Rogers price. Your own figure turns mostly on the deck's size and whether an old deck comes out first, and the estimate I write up on site puts it in writing.
How long does a new concrete pool deck need before winter?
Ideally, new outdoor concrete gets 30 days to cure and then another 30 days to dry out before it goes through freezing and thawing. Concrete poured in late fall has less time to gain strength, so if you want a deck in before winter, leave room on the calendar for both.
What is the best concrete for a pool deck in Rogers, AR?
Air-entrained concrete is the usual pick for an outdoor deck that freezes, because the tiny air pockets mixed into it give freezing water room to push without breaking up the surface. A stronger mix doesn't make up for missing air, so the mix gets settled before the concrete is ordered. Air-entrained concrete can also blister or peel if it's hard-troweled smooth, so a pool deck usually gets a broom finish, a light brushed texture, instead.
Do I need a permit for a pool deck in Rogers?
A new pool takes city permits in Rogers, and for a deck on its own, Risk Reduction at 479-621-1100 is the office that answers building permit questions. The pool contractor or homeowner files residential pool permits on the city's online portal, and the city requires a master electrician to pull the electric permit and do the bonding and grounding, the electrical safety wiring for the pool and deck. If your job needs a permit, I'll tell you at the estimate, and when we're the contractor we handle the filing and inspections with the city for our part of the work.
How often should I reseal a concrete pool deck and recaulk the joint?
Depending on the sealer, plan to reseal 2 to 5 years after the pour, since some sealers break down over time, and a silane sealer should last about 5 years while a siloxane may last only two. One coping supplier's guide says to check the joint between deck and coping every year and recaulk it whenever the caulk cracks, pulls away or breaks down. Most of those caulks last five to ten years, so plan on recaulking that joint over the deck's life.
How do I know if my old pool deck can be resurfaced instead of replaced?
A coating over old concrete only works when that concrete is a good candidate, so the old deck needs a close look before you go that route. If it's cracked through, sinking or pulling away at the coping, replacing it usually makes more sense, and I'll tell you which way I'd go once I've seen it.
