A Concrete Reason to Revive Your Swimming Pool

The concrete surrounding your swimming pool might be the most noticeable feature about your swimming pool other than the color of the water. Yet, despite the importance of the concrete, it is taken for granted and not placed high on the priority list. Adding decorative concrete, however, will make those long, lazy summer days spent reclining poolside in a chaise lounge more enjoyable. Who wants to look at stained concrete that looks more like the concrete of a public pool on Labor Day? Your backyard, your sanctuary, and your downtime deserve better than that.

A Concrete Reason to Revive Your Swimming Pool

Here are some reasons why Varsity Pools and Patios wants you to consider putting some pizzazz into your concrete.

1. Improve Your Property Value: If you are thinking about putting your house on the market, the first thing many families will ask is to see the pool. The last thing you want them to see is grimy, uneven cracked concrete with more sunken areas than the Moon. For many families, the swimming pool is the crown jewel of the house, but if you haven’t taken good care of the concrete, what else are you hiding?

2. Impress Your Guests: Anybody can make the water in the pool turn sparking blue, but what will really blow your guest’s minds will be the aesthetic details of your swimming pool.

3. Safety: How many times do you have to shout to your kids: “No running by the pool!” If your concrete is old, cracked, scaling, and hasn’t had a hose taken to it since your Fourth of July barbecue five years ago, let alone an afternoon of pressure washing, chances are you children and guests run the risk of slipping and harming themselves. Since you need new concrete anyway, why not choose stamped or broomed concrete that comes in a design and color that makes you happy, rather than the design or color that came with the house when you bought it.

4. Price: A concrete remodel should only cost you between $4-$9 per square foot, not much to give your swimming pool the cosmetic enhancement it needs and you deserve. Then the fun begins: you get to choose the style (inlaid tile, stone, mosaics, to name a few) and the patterns.
