When it comes to designing the perfect pool area, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is selecting the right pool decking material. Pool decks not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your backyard but also need to be durable, slip-resistant, and easy to maintain. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to choose the best one for your pool area. In this article, we\u2019ll explore four popular pool decking options: regular concrete, stamped and stained concrete, pavers, and travertine, each with its own benefits and considerations.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=”973-713-7271″ use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_color=”#ffffff” icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”52px” content_max_width=”100%” image_icon_width_tablet=”35px” image_icon_width_phone=”30px” image_icon_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ header_level=”h3″ header_font=”Khand|700|on|on|||||” header_font_size=”60px” body_font=”||||||||” background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”47px|||||” custom_padding=”|||” animation=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ header_font_size_tablet=”35px” header_font_size_phone=”30px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” icon_font_size=”52px” icon_font_size_tablet=”35px” icon_font_size_phone=”30px” icon_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||20px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”20px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Stamped and stained concrete offers the same benefits as regular concrete but with a significant upgrade in design. This option allows homeowners to incorporate intricate patterns and a variety of colors, giving the pool deck the appearance of more expensive materials like stone or brick, without the hefty price tag. Stamped concrete is poured in a liquid state and then imprinted with a stamp to create various patterns, while staining adds color to the concrete, either enhancing its natural hue or giving it a completely new look. This type of decking offers better aesthetics and can be made to mimic natural stones like slate or flagstone. Additionally, stamped and stained concrete is more resistant to cracking than regular concrete, but it does require resealing every few years to maintain its color and texture.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3395,3396,3397,3398,3399,3400,3401,3402,3403,3404,3405″ show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Pavers are another popular option for pool decking, offering a more refined and high-end look compared to regular concrete. These interlocking stones come in a variety of materials, including concrete, brick, and natural stone, and offer endless design possibilities in terms of color, shape, and pattern. Pavers provide excellent durability and are more resistant to cracking than poured concrete because they can expand and contract with temperature changes. Additionally, the joints between the pavers allow for better drainage, preventing water from pooling on the deck. While pavers can be more expensive to install than concrete, their aesthetic appeal, longevity, and low-maintenance nature make them a worthwhile investment. However, they do require occasional maintenance, such as weed control between the joints and re-leveling if the pavers shift over time.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3410,3411,3412,3413,3414,3415,3416,3417,3418,3419,3420,3421,3422″ show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3423,3424,3425,3426,3427″ gallery_orderby=”rand” show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Travertine is a luxurious natural stone that adds elegance and sophistication to any pool deck. Known for its beautiful appearance and smooth texture, travertine is available in a range of colors, from light beige to deep brown, and can be cut into tiles or slabs. One of the key benefits of travertine is its natural ability to remain cool even under direct sunlight, making it an ideal option for pool areas in hot climates. It is also highly slip-resistant, even when wet, which adds an element of safety around the pool. Although travertine is one of the more expensive pool decking options, it offers unmatched beauty, durability, and longevity, making it a worthwhile investment for those looking to create a luxurious outdoor space. However, travertine requires periodic sealing to protect against stains and weathering.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Regular concrete is one of the most commonly used pool decking materials due to its affordability and versatility. It provides a smooth, flat surface that is simple to install, making it a popular choice for homeowners on a budget. Concrete can also be customized in terms of color and texture, although it lacks the intricate design features that other options offer. While concrete is durable and long-lasting, it can crack over time due to shifting soil or weather changes, and it can become quite hot under the sun, making it uncomfortable to walk on in warmer months. Despite these drawbacks, regular concrete remains a solid choice for pool decks due to its straightforward installation and cost-effective nature.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/highlandspoolspa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/concrete-pool-deck-nj.jpg” title_text=”concrete pool deck nj” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ specialty=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” padding_top_1=”0px” padding_top_2=”100px” padding_bottom_1=”0px” padding_2_tablet=”0px|||10vw” padding_2_phone=”” padding_2_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”Why This Service” _builder_version=”4.16″ inner_width=”100%” inner_max_width=”100%” custom_padding=”0px|10vw|0px|||” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”” use_custom_width=”on” width_unit=”off” custom_width_percent=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/highlandspoolspa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/mechanic-60.png” title_text=”635730274623663221-ThinkstockPhotos-459897873″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_image=”https:\/\/highlandspoolspa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/635730274623663221-ThinkstockPhotos-459897873.jpg” parallax=”on” max_width_tablet=”60%” max_width_phone=”” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_margin=”||-1px” always_center_on_mobile=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_divider color=”#f71635″ divider_weight=”4px” _builder_version=”4.16″ transform_scale_last_edited=”off|tablet” transform_translate=”-18%|-28vw” transform_translate_last_edited=”off|tablet” transform_translate_linked=”off” transform_rotate=”0deg|0deg|-68deg” transform_rotate_last_edited=”off|desktop” transform_skew_last_edited=”off|desktop” transform_origin_last_edited=”off|desktop” transform_styles_last_edited=”off|tablet” width=”20vw” module_alignment=”right” height=”0px” custom_margin=”||0px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ specialty_columns=”2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column_inner type=”1_2″ saved_specialty_column_type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”Sundeck Classic Texture” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”^||divi||400″ icon_color=”#f71635″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”20px” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”|700||on|||||” header_font_size=”16px” header_letter_spacing=”2px” header_line_height=”1.2em” body_font=”|600|||||||” body_line_height=”2em” animation=”off” icon_font_size=”20px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”Stained Concrete” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”^||divi||400″ icon_color=”#f71635″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”20px” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”|700||on|||||” header_font_size=”16px” header_letter_spacing=”2px” header_line_height=”1.2em” body_font=”|600|||||||” body_line_height=”2em” animation=”off” icon_font_size=”20px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Is your concrete pool deck not the right color? You are no longer restricted to plain gray cement slabs. A pool deck recolor can be done with just the application of stains.

It\u2019s simpler than ever to customize concrete, particularly with new overlay and patterning products that give you the look of any material on the market.

Because of their classic beauty and durability, these pavers can boost your resale value.<\/p>\n A travertine deck lasts for a very long time.
