Idaho and Montana experiences everything from scorching summer days to freezing winters, which can really do a number on most pool deck materials. Concrete pool decks cracks during freeze-thaw cycles, pavers shift, and wood warps.
Rubber pool decking doesn't have any of these problems. Why?
It flexes with temperature changes and ground movement. So it maintains structural integrity season after season without the need for crazy maintenance and expensive repairs.
This drastically reduces the cost of owning a pool and helps pool owners enjoy them instead of seeing them as an endless money-pit.
In this blog post we are going to dive deeper in the benefits of rubberized pool decking so you'll have a better understanding why it's right for you and why we here at Northwest Resin Rock highly recommend it.
I don't know about you, but safety is a top priority at our pool. There are just too many things that can go wrong, especially if small kids are involved. Rubber pool surfacing solved a lot of these issues naturally without any additional work. Let's dive into it:
As I mentioned above, our region's climate can be tough on outdoor surfaces, but rubber pool decking handles these challenges really well:
Waterfront properties and lake views are abundant in these communities. Rubber pool decking complements these natural settings while providing safe transitions between pool areas and lake access points. The material's ability to withstand moisture makes it ideal for properties near Lake Coeur d'Alene.
These growing communities value family-friendly features and practical home improvements. Rubber pool decking offers the perfect balance of safety for children and durability for budget-conscious homeowners looking for long-term value.
Urban and suburban homeowners in these areas appreciate modern solutions that enhance property value. Rubber pool decking provides a contemporary look while addressing practical concerns like maintenance and safety.
With its outdoor recreation focus, Sandpoint residents understand the importance of durable materials that can handle seasonal changes. Rubber pool decking maintains its integrity through winter snow and summer heat, making it ideal for this mountain lake community.
Most pool deck materials are tough on the environment. Concrete, for example, goes through quite the process before ending up around your pool. As a matter of fact, sourcing and making concrete is devastating on the environment. Rubber, on the other hand, is very environmentally friendly.
A typical 500-square-foot pool deck repurposes approximately 75-100 scrap tires, giving new life to materials that would otherwise contribute to our waste problem.
While the initial investment in rubber pool decking might be slightly higher than basic concrete, the long-term value is well worth it and ends up cheaper. Here's why:
When considering the total cost of ownership over 12-15 years, rubber pool decking is usually the most economical option.
Your pool should be a place of relaxation and enjoyment, not a constant problem and expense.
Rubber pool deck surfacing gives you the perfect combination of practical benefits and aesthetic appeal. From the natural slip resistance to the durability, laying rubber down around your pool is just a smart move.
