Frequently Asked Questions
Pool deck resurfacing in Cape Cod typically costs between $8 and $16 per square foot. The price varies based on several factors including the size of your deck, its current condition, and the material you choose.
Rubber Stone coatings generally fall in the middle of this range and offer excellent value for their durability and comfort features. Vuba Stone resin-bound surfaces may cost slightly more due to the premium aggregates and longer lifespan they provide.
Decks with significant damage like deep cracks or uneven sections may need additional preparation work, which can add to the total cost. We always provide a detailed written estimate after inspecting your deck so you know exactly what to expect.
No, rubber stone pool deck coatings are designed to be slip-resistant even when wet. The textured surface created by the rubber granules provides excellent traction for bare feet and reduces the risk of slipping around your pool.
This is one of the main reasons homeowners choose rubber stone over traditional concrete or tile. The material's natural texture creates thousands of tiny grip points that work well in wet conditions. Many families with young children specifically request rubber stone for this safety feature.
The surface also drains well because it's permeable, meaning water passes through rather than pooling on top. This further reduces slipping hazards and keeps your pool area safer for everyone.
A properly installed Vuba Stone pool deck surface can last 20 years or more with basic maintenance. The resin-bound system creates a durable, seamless finish that resists the wear and weather exposure common around pools.
Vuba Stone's UV-stable formula prevents fading and maintains its color over time, even under direct sunlight. The flexible composition allows it to expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking, which is important for Cape Cod's variable weather.
We back our installations with a 15-year material warranty for added peace of mind. Regular cleaning with a pressure washer every year or two helps maintain the surface appearance and extends its lifespan even further.
Yes, we regularly resurface cracked concrete pool decks. In fact, covering damaged concrete is one of the most common reasons homeowners choose rubber stone or Vuba Stone coatings.
Our process starts with thorough surface preparation. We clean the concrete, fill cracks with appropriate repair compounds, and level any uneven areas. This creates a solid foundation for the new coating to bond properly.
Small hairline cracks and normal wear patterns are easily addressed during preparation. Larger structural issues like heaving or deep settlement may need additional repair before coating. We assess every deck during our free consultation and explain exactly what's needed for a successful result.
Rubber stone stays significantly cooler than traditional concrete in summer sun. While no outdoor surface stays completely cool in direct heat, rubber stone's composition absorbs and releases heat differently than solid concrete or pavers.
The air pockets within the rubber granules act as insulation, reducing heat absorption. Most homeowners find they can walk comfortably barefoot on rubber stone even during hot Cape Cod summer days, which isn't always possible with regular concrete.
Lighter color choices also help reflect heat rather than absorbing it. We offer a range of lighter blends that maximize this cooling benefit while still providing an attractive finish for your pool area.
