Concrete pool deck contractor in Memphis, TN: safe underfoot, built to drain

A pool deck has a harder job than almost any other concrete in your yard. It is wet, it is walked on barefoot, it sits in full sun, and water has to leave it quickly. A deck that is too slick, drains toward the house or cracks around the pool shell is both an annoyance and a safety problem.

Baltz & Sons Concrete is a family-owned Memphis concrete contractor that builds pool decks for new pools and remodels. We plan the slope, joints and surface texture around your pool, and because we also design and build outdoor living spaces, we can add a cabana, kitchen or pergola so the whole backyard fits together.

Every pool deck

What is included

Every pool deck is planned around the pool, the yard and the people who use it.

Layout around your pool

We plan deck width, steps and traffic paths so the pool and yard work together.

Drainage planning

Slope and drains carry water away from the pool, the deck and your home.

Compacted base

A prepared base supports the slab and reduces settling and cracking around the pool.

Joints and reinforcement

Proper expansion joints and reinforcement allow for movement near the pool shell.

Slip-resistant finish

Textured finishes give better footing for wet feet, in a look that suits your home.

Cure and seal

The deck is cured and sealed to protect color and resist stains and pool chemicals.

What affects pool deck cost

Pool decks vary a lot, so we price after seeing your pool and yard.
  • Deck area. The amount of concrete around the pool is the biggest driver of cost.
  • Existing or new pool. Working around a finished pool is different from coordinating with a pool builder.
  • Finish and color. Textured, stamped and colored finishes add materials and labor.
  • Drainage. Drains, grading and tie-ins add work but protect the pool and your home.
  • Extras. Steps, walls, lighting, cabanas and outdoor kitchens can be added to the project.

Reviews

★★★★★

“These guys are busy but well worth the wait! The design was excellent and the crews fulfilled our expectations completely. Kevin did a great job with the design of a new cabana and grill station addition to the pool deck. I was surprised later to find that he won first place in Residential Design with his work. These guys are highly recommended!”

“Baltz & Sons was the perfect selection for our driveway project. The owner, Kevin, goes above and beyond for customers. We appreciated how he communicated throughout the job. The creativity he brought to the table was so helpful. My husband and I weren’t entirely sure what the end result should look like and Kevin came up with ideas that were just what we needed, all the while coming up with something that was reasonably priced. Our driveway is just what we wanted!”

“We are more than pleased with the work done by Baltz and Sons Concrete. They redid our driveway and added masonry walls with integrated lights and it all looks beautiful. I can’t recommend them enough. They are wonderful!”

The full pool deck guide

Pool decks need traction when wet. A fine broom texture is the simplest way to get it, and stamped or textured finishes add grip along with a custom look. We choose textures that are comfortable on bare feet, and we explain how the surface will feel in sun and rain before you choose.

Water should move off the deck quickly and away from both the pool and your house. That takes careful grading, and sometimes drains, so rain and splash water do not sit on the surface or run toward the foundation. Good drainage also protects the concrete and keeps the deck safer to walk on.

Concrete and a pool shell expand and contract differently. Expansion joints and the right reinforcement let the deck move without cracking. We plan joint locations around the pool, steps and other fixed objects so movement happens where we intend.

Lighter colors generally stay more comfortable underfoot in summer sun than very dark ones. We can add color to the concrete and talk through the trade-offs between color, texture and comfort so you get a deck you like to walk on.

For a new pool, we coordinate with your pool builder so the deck is poured at the right time and height. For an existing pool, we can replace a cracked or worn deck, widen it, or add areas for seating, a cabana or a grill station. Either way, we plan the whole space before we start.

Rinse the deck regularly, clean up spills and keep pool chemicals off the surface when possible. Resealing on the schedule we recommend protects color and helps the deck resist stains and wear.
