The past few weeks of heavy rain, and gloomy weather in Northeast Florida have left many pool decks looking less than inviting. Storm after storm, water and dirt accumulation, along with potential algal buildup has likely disrupted your plans to soak up the last rays of summer on your pool deck. But don’t worry—there’s still time to get your outdoor space ready for a few more beautiful sunny weeks of late summer weather.
Preparing Your Pool Deck for Use Again
After weeks of rain, your pool deck may be covered in excess water, dirt, and possibly algae. Cleaning off this buildup is essential not just for aesthetics, but for safety. A slippery surface can quickly turn a relaxing day by the pool into a hazard. Pressure washing and removing dirt buildup will help restore the vibrancy of your deck and create a more enjoyable environment…by no need to hire a pressure washing company for this…it’s part of the restoration process!
Once the pool deck surface is clean, it’s important to inspect your pool deck for any cracks, chips, or discoloration that may have worsened during the rainy season. These imperfections can not only affect the look of your deck but may also lead to long-term damage if left untreated. By repairing or re-coating these areas, you’ll extend the lifespan of your pool deck and ensure it’s in top shape for your family to enjoy safely.
