Pool deck coating in Carmel, Indiana.
Cooler underfoot, safer when wet, finished in your color. Most Carmel decks are done in two to three days.
Why Carmel
What we see on Carmel decks.
Carmel has one of the highest concentrations of in-ground residential pools in the metro, and a lot of those decks were poured in the 1990s and 2000s. Two decades of freeze-thaw leaves hairline cracking, discoloration, and a slab that holds heat all afternoon.
We work throughout Carmel, from the Village of WestClay and Cool Creek North to the neighborhoods off Springmill and 116th. If your HOA has an architectural review process, tell us early and we will get you a color sample and product data sheet to submit.
What we coat in Carmel
- Residential pool decks and pool surrounds
- Patios, lanais, and covered porches
- Walkways, entry steps, and sidewalks
- HOA and community pool amenity decks
- Apartment and clubhouse outdoor areas
Manufacturer-tested versus bare concrete. Lighter colors perform best.
The process
Three steps, start to finish.
Clean and prep
Deep clean and etch, fill hairline cracks, patch spalling, protect landscaping.
Coat
Two roller-applied coats in your color, with cure time between them.
Seal
Clear sealer for UV, pool chemical, and traffic protection.
How much does pool deck resurfacing cost?
Price depends on square footage, the condition of the existing slab, and how much crack repair and patching is needed first. Send photos and an approximate square footage and we will give you a number. We do not charge for estimates and we do not use high-pressure quoting.
How long does it take?
Most residential pool decks take two to three days from start to finish. Day one is cleaning, prep, and crack repair. Coating and sealing follow, with cure time between coats. Larger or badly damaged slabs that need significant patching can run longer. We give you a realistic schedule before we start rather than an optimistic one.
How much cooler does it actually get?
The manufacturer's testing shows a reduction of up to 38 percent versus bare concrete on in-ground slabs. The real number on your deck depends heavily on the color you choose, since lighter colors reflect more heat. We will show you a side by side reading on your own slab if you want one.
Can you coat over my existing Kool Deck or knockdown topping?
Usually yes, as long as the existing topping is still bonded to the slab and not delaminating. If sections are lifting or hollow, those areas have to be removed and patched first. We check for this during the estimate.
