A stone pool deck is a smart choice for around the edge of your swimming pool. It’s durable, slip-resistant, and not to mention looks great! Let’s consider some pros and cons of such a decision to find out if this type of deck is right for you.
Cons
Stone is usually not the cheapest material for a deck, it may cost you a pretty penny, besides you will need a professional to install such a deck. The deck can get stained but sealer can help protect the stone from the sun, water, chemicals, and stains. Sometimes stone can be slippery but you may add an anti-skid additive to the product you use to seal it. Keeping it clean will also help it to stay less slippery when wet.

How To Maintain
Regularly spray it down with water and scrub it with a non-metallic brush or broom. This will help prevent dirt and grime buildup that could cause more stubborn stains to develop. This is especially important for pools that get a lot of heavy use or are surrounded by a lot of trees and bushes. Once or twice a year, get out the power washer and give the stone around the pool a good deep clean. This will get all the dirt and grime out of the little cracks and make it look like new again. And right after you powerwash it is a good time to apply a sealant. Powerwashing can actually damage concrete and natural stone materials, so be careful. An important step in caring for the stone coping around your pool is sealing it. A sealer will help protect the stone from things like moisture, salt water, chemicals, and staining.
