Pool Decks & Deck Renovations

Deck Stain

Applying a new coat/s of stain to an existing deck may take place over the course of couple of days, with some of those days having no workmen on site to allow material to dry, cure or set. Workmen may arrive at different times of the workday or leave and return multiple times during the workday.

Deck Stain Maintenance

Your new stained surface is sealed. Liquids will not penetrate but may stain during the 30 day initial cure time. During this period, sandy grit dirt may ground into the surface. Stain sealers take 28 days to totally cure to approximately 5,700 psi.

During the first 30 days following the deck stain:

Rinse dirt and spills with water or mild soap solution with watering can or hose. Do not use chemical cleaners on the surface or drag anything across it.

After the first 30 days following the deck stain:

Mild solution of chlorine or muriatic acid can be used to clean deck if mild soap solution does not work. Do not use any solvent based cleaners. Always try a test spot.

Elmer’s Squeez ‘N Caulk can be used to repair cracks as they appear.

Spray Crete

Spray-Crete (sometimes known as Flo-Crete) is a coating of decorative concrete applied to an existing concrete deck foundation. The material application allows for different styles and design patterns through the use of tools and/or stencils.

Spray Crete Stone Patterns

An upgrade option available for most of our Spray-Crete installations is the hand troweled stone pattern and texturing variation, which is available in both graystone and natural color options. Be sure to ask your Mr. Marcite sales representative for additional information about this distinctive style for your deck renovation.

Spray Crete Maintenance

Keep furniture off the newly resurfaced deck for at least 72 hours after completion. You should also refrain from walking on, or allowing your pet to walk onto the deck for at least 24 hours.

Pavers & Travertine

Your new Paver or Travertine deck installation will take place over the course of several days. Pavers will be delivered to your home and placed on the driveway. Our workmen will move the pavers by wheel barrel back to the deck area. If we are renovating a pool in conjunction with your deck resurfacing, the majority of the deck work will be likely be completed prior to the pool.

Driveway Pavers

Paver Maintenace

Pavers, by design, are durable, long lasting, and low maintenance. Sealing the pavers, although it is not necessary, will enhance the appearance, prevent some sand erosion, assist in stain prevention, and help to control both weeds and ants.

A few extra pavers are always good to keep around. One advantage to having interlocking pavers are that individual units can be removed and replaced if some become damaged or stained beyond repair.
