Decorative Concrete in Memorial

Memorial was largely built out in the sixties and seventies, and many of the pools here date from the same period. The pool itself has usually been maintained; the deck around it frequently has not been touched since the original pour.

A deck of that age in heavy tree cover accumulates problems slowly: leaf tannin staining that will not wash out, surface erosion from decades of pressure washing, and a texture polished smooth on the routes people walk. None of it is dramatic year to year, which is exactly why it goes unaddressed for so long.

Resurfacing resets all of it, and the texture decision matters here — a shaded deck that stays damp is slippery far more often than an open one.
