A cracked or slippery deck is a hazard every time someone steps outside. We build pool decks that drain properly, grip bare feet, and hold up through south Mississippi summers.
A cracked or slippery deck is a hazard every time someone steps outside. We build pool decks that drain properly, grip bare feet, and hold up through south Mississippi summers.
Concrete pool decks in Hattiesburg are graded for drainage, finished with a slip-resistant texture, and sealed to handle both pool chemicals and intense UV exposure. Most installations take two to five days from start to finish, depending on the size of your pool area, with a curing period of at least three to seven days before anyone walks on the surface.
Hattiesburg pool season runs from April through October - that is six months of daily foot traffic, sunlight, and pool chemical splash on your deck surface every year. If yours is cracking, shifting, or rough underfoot, concrete pool decks are one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make to your backyard. Many homeowners who contact us about pool decks also ask about concrete patio construction to extend the outdoor living space around the pool and tie the whole yard together.
Small hairline cracks are common, but cracks that are growing wider or long enough to catch your toe are a warning sign. In Hattiesburg's clay-heavy soils, spreading cracks often mean the ground beneath has shifted - and once that starts, it tends to continue unless the underlying cause is addressed.
If water sits in low spots on your deck after a storm or a busy afternoon in the pool, your deck has a drainage problem. Hattiesburg's heavy rainfall makes this especially serious - standing water works its way into cracks, softens the soil underneath, and speeds up deterioration.
A deck that now feels rough, pitted, or sharp on bare feet has lost its surface layer from years of pool chemical exposure, UV damage, or wear. In Hattiesburg's long pool season, surface wear happens faster than in cooler climates. This is both a comfort problem and a safety hazard for kids.
If you can see a gap between the pool coping and the deck surface, or the deck slopes toward the pool instead of away, the concrete has moved. This is a common result of Hattiesburg's wet-dry soil cycle. A tilted deck can direct water into the pool structure and cause bigger problems over time.
We install new pool decks from the ground up and resurface existing ones that are worn but structurally sound. Every new installation starts with proper site grading so water moves away from your pool and your home - not toward them. We handle all surface finish options, from a basic broom texture to concrete steps construction integrated into the deck layout for pools with grade changes. Sealer selection is part of every job, matched to Hattiesburg's sun exposure and pool chemical environment.
If your existing deck is cracked or faded but the concrete underneath is still solid, resurfacing can give you a like-new surface at a fraction of the cost of full replacement. We will tell you honestly which option makes sense after seeing your deck in person. Homeowners who are redoing their entire backyard often combine pool deck work with concrete patio construction for a seamless finished look around the whole outdoor space.
Best for homeowners building a new pool or replacing an existing deck that has shifted, heaved, or cracked beyond repair.
A cost-effective option when the underlying concrete is still sound but the surface is worn, faded, or rough underfoot.
The most practical choice for safety - a textured surface that gives bare feet grip even when the deck is wet.
For homeowners who want the look of stone or tile with the durability and lower maintenance of concrete.
Hattiesburg averages around 60 inches of rain per year, and the area sees heavy downpours that can saturate the ground quickly. A pool deck that is not graded to shed water away from the pool and the house will end up with standing water working its way under the concrete, loosening the soil, and causing the slab to settle or crack. Proper drainage planning is not optional here - it is the foundation of a deck that holds up. Hattiesburg also sits in a climate where summer temperatures climb into the low 90s, which means concrete curing in summer needs to be carefully managed so the surface does not dry too fast and crack before the interior has hardened fully.
Homeowners in Gulfport and Biloxi face similar conditions - high humidity, long outdoor seasons, and ground that moves with moisture changes. We serve the entire south Mississippi region and design every deck for the local climate, not a national average. The Pine Belt clay soils under most Hattiesburg yards expand when wet and contract when dry, so the compacted gravel base we lay before every pour is what gives your deck a stable foundation that moves with the soil instead of fighting it.
We will ask a few basic questions about your pool area and what you are hoping to improve. Most projects get a written estimate within one business day of that first conversation.
We come to your home, measure the deck area, check soil and drainage conditions, and walk through finish options. No obligation - just a clear picture of what your project involves and what it costs.
We excavate or prep the existing surface, grade for drainage, and lay a compacted base before any concrete is poured. This prep work is what determines how long your deck lasts. The actual pour and finishing typically takes one to three days.
The deck stays roped off for at least three to seven days while the concrete cures. In Hattiesburg summer heat, we may wet the surface periodically to slow drying. Once curing is complete, we walk the finished deck with you before we leave.

(769) 390-9171We grade every deck so water moves away from your pool and your home. In a city that gets around 60 inches of rain a year, a deck that pools water is a deck that is failing slowly. Proper slope is something we build into every job from day one.
Mississippi requires contractors performing residential work above a certain dollar amount to hold a state-issued license. You can look up any contractor's license status through the Mississippi State Board of Contractors before signing anything - we encourage you to check ours.
You get a written estimate that breaks down every cost before any work begins. We do not change that number without talking to you first. No surprises when the bill arrives - the number you agreed to is the number you pay.
Every deck we install gets a finish that gives bare feet traction on a wet surface. With a pool season that runs six months or more in south Mississippi, surface safety is not a nice-to-have - it is part of every scope of work.
Every pool deck we build is designed around local conditions - the clay soils, the rainfall, and the long outdoor season that makes Hattiesburg backyards different from anywhere else. That local knowledge shows up in how long our decks hold up.
