In case you missed it, Distinctive Deck Designs is a certified Trex® Pro-Platinum Installer of TREX composite decking. Trex Decking is the leader in composite decking products and the new Transcend® line is a great choice for many to install on their swim pool decks. While traditional wood is not ideal for pool decks because it warps, absorbs water, and rots, composite deck materials are a great alternative and provide a kid and pet-friendly surface for pool surrounds.
Redefining Traditional
Today’s underground pools feature more unique designs and shapes than those of the past, such as the traditional kidney-shaped pool. More homeowners are going custom with their outdoor living features and entertaining areas, and pools are no exception. However, even the most customized pool requires slip-resistant surfaces. Fortunately, there are now many different colors and textures available for slip-resistant pool deck designs.
TREX recently shared a blog post featuring beautiful composite decking materials surrounding pools for beautiful deck designs. Permeable paver stones are also taking the stage for pool decks. Other respectable designs include large stone slabs to complement any stacked rock waterfall or seating areas.
How safe is composite decking for pool areas?
Composite decking actually features deeper grooves than traditional wood decks for better stability and grip, which is ideal for pets and children. You’ll also never have to worry about exposed nails or screws that can tear into skin. Unlike standard concrete, this surface is also slip-resistant (Green Depot).
Can I still build custom water features with composite decking?
Yes! You can layer TREX finishing material on top of any structure for water features for a clean look. We love this look from a Canadian deck featuring Transcend colors Rope Swing and Tiki Torch.
If this beautiful look is an inspiration for your dream pool design, enlist an authorized installer for composite decking materials. You will want the assistance of an experienced installer to ensure the water features will not void the warranty on your materials.
