Paving Stones Make Attractive Swimming Pool Deck

Lindsay ~ 13 February 2009

If you’re fortunate enough to be building a backyard swimming pool (or giving an existing one a major remodel), then you’ll want to think of the surrounding area and not just the pool itself. What sort of decking material would you like to walk barefoot across? Or set your drink on while you’re lounging in a poolside chair? Or just admire as it glistens wetly in the sun?

Wood? Concrete? Brick? An aggregate?

You might dig the classic look these paving stones can offer to a pool deck.

According to Pacific PavingStone, pavers like these out-perform mortar-set stones and brick in durability, flexibility, and strength. The stones are available in a variety of colors and when property installed, they shouldn’t crack, sag, shift, or seperate. Also… they’re nice and smooth for walking barefoot upon.

All in all, a nice option for a swimming pool deck.

How very beautiful. My last pool was a stacked stone pool with inlayed stone in the walk way and patio. I loved the idea of the pavers!

This is very beautiful. I’ve been using an above ground pool for 3 years now, and this gives me the idea of creating a pool like this one. But I wonder how much it costs to build a swimming pool like this?

how much is this pool and where do you buy this from and how much area does it cover and how much paving does it need

Nice pool, although I’d rather have natural stone on my pool deck rather than a man-made concrete product that looks nice but will fade over time and eventually fall apart.
