Concrete Pool Decking Can Look Great

Backyard pool designs can be what you have always dreamed, using concrete pool decking. This

The pool is a simple rectangular design. This was chosen since the homeowner wanted to use an automatic pool cover, and generally rectangular pools are the least complicated for this type of cover. A vinyl liner pool was chosen....this is much less expensive than gunite pools.

You probably would not have know unless I told you.

They can be done in a very nice way so a very high end look is achieved. The swimming pool decking is simple concrete. Well, not so simple. A very attractive color was mixed into the concrete to eliminate the typical concrete color. In addition, nice concrete patio designs were used to give the paving some interest.

The patterned concrete also provides an opportunity to place the necessary construction joints right in the pattern so that they are hidden.

Plantings soften all the hardscape of backyard pool designs. In this pool design, they were kept at a low height so that the beautiful lake view could be seen and not blocked.

There are actually three levels to this design. The house is set up very high above the ground, so a deck made sense. As you walk down the deck and come to the bottom, a patio was designed for a sitting area at this level. The patio is made of concrete pavers. There are additional steps from the patio leading to the concrete pool decking.

All areas can view the lovely lake. It's important to consider what you will be viewing when you sit in a particular area of your pool or patio. Why face the house if you have a lovely garden to look at.
