WHAT WE DO
POOL DECK REPLACEMENTS
Replacing a pool deck is actually a very easy process, our crews will start by removing the existing decking surface and hauling away all the spoils. Once the decking is removed the pool is open for any other repairs or services scheduled such as electrical, plumbing lines, equipment, coping & tile and new surface finish. If the renovation is decking only the new deck installation process starts immediately following the removal.
