Professional Concrete Pool Surroundings in Canberra

When Dave from Tuggeranong wanted to upgrade his 1990s pool area, he thought he’d need to tear everything out and start fresh. After we assessed his situation, we showed him how we could work with his existing pool structure and create stunning concrete surroundings that transformed the entire space. That’s the difference experience makes – we find solutions that save you money while delivering exactly what you want.
Complete Pool Surround Installation: We handle everything from excavation to final finishing. Our team removes old surfaces, prepares the base properly (which most contractors skip), and pours concrete that’s specifically designed for pool environments. We’re not just laying concrete – we’re creating a foundation that will last decades in Canberra’s challenging conditions.
Custom Concrete Pool Decking: Your pool deck needs to handle constant moisture, chemical exposure, and temperature extremes. Our pool-specific concrete mixes resist chlorine damage and provide the drainage you need to prevent water pooling. We can match existing concrete or create entirely new designs that complement your home’s architecture.
Exposed Aggregate Finishes: This popular Canberra choice gives you a natural stone appearance with concrete durability. We use locally sourced aggregates that handle our climate perfectly – river stones, quartz, or granite that won’t fade under our intense summer sun. The textured surface provides excellent grip around wet areas while looking absolutely stunning.
Stamped Concrete Patterns: Want the look of expensive slate, sandstone, or brick without the maintenance headaches? Our stamped concrete replicates these materials perfectly. We’ve got pattern options specifically chosen for Canberra pools – designs that look great with our local architecture and hide minor wear from heavy use.
Pool Coping Solutions: The area where your pool meets the decking needs special attention. Our concrete coping creates a smooth transition that’s both beautiful and functional. We form it to direct water away from the pool structure and integrate perfectly with your chosen deck finish.
Non-Slip Surface Treatments: Safety around pools isn’t negotiable. We add slip-resistant aggregates or apply textured finishes that provide grip without being rough on bare feet. Our treatments maintain their effectiveness even after years of pool chemicals and cleaning.
Drainage Integration: Poor drainage destroys pool areas fast. We design proper slopes and integrate drainage solutions that keep water moving away from your pool structure and home. This prevents the foundation issues that plague many Canberra pools built without proper drainage consideration.
Timeline and Process: Most residential pool surround projects take 5-7 days from start to finish, weather permitting. We schedule around Canberra’s weather patterns – avoiding extreme heat days and frost periods when concrete won’t cure properly. You’ll get a detailed timeline before we start, so you know exactly what to expect.
