Why El Monte Elite Concrete Solutions is the Best Choice for Concrete Pool Decks Construction

With over 20 years of experience serving El Monte, El Monte Elite Concrete Solutions has built a solid reputation for delivering durable concrete pool decks designed to withstand our specific climate challenges, including summer temperatures reaching 105°F and UV index ratings of 11 during peak months. Our installations throughout neighborhoods from Cherrylee to Mountain View address El Monte's expansive clay soils that shift dramatically between our dry summers and the 17 inches of winter rainfall, requiring specialized reinforcement techniques to prevent deck settling around pool perimeters.


We serve both commercial properties along the Peck Road Water Park corridor and residential clients in the historic neighborhoods near Arceo Park, where many homes feature pools built in the 1960s requiring modern deck upgrades. Our services accommodate El Monte's 280-foot elevation variance, ensuring proper drainage toward the Rio Hondo Channel system rather than neighboring properties, as mandated by Los Angeles County Flood Control District requirements.


Our installations comply with El Monte Municipal Code Chapter 15.08 and California Building Code Title 24 for pool deck safety barriers and slip-resistance coefficients. We address the unique mineral content in El Monte's water supply, which accelerates concrete deterioration, by applying specialized sealers that resist calcium buildup common in our hard water conditions averaging 285 ppm. This local expertise ensures pool decks that endure El Monte's specific environmental demands.

Our Concrete Pool Decks Construction Services

We provide comprehensive solutions tailored to both commercial and residential pool deck projects. Our work prioritizes durability, safety, and aesthetic appeal, ensuring each deck meets specific functional needs and local regulations.

Pool Deck Design and Planning


Our design process begins with a detailed assessment of the site and client requirements. We create plans that optimize space around the pool, considering factors like traffic flow, pool shape, and surrounding landscape.


We utilize 3D renderings and precise blueprints to help visualize the final product. Compliance with building codes and safety standards, such as proper drainage slopes and barrier placements, is ensured from the start to avoid costly adjustments later.


Every design is customized to balance usability with style, ensuring the pool deck supports frequent use while complementing the property's overall look.

Deck Material Selection 


Choosing the right materials is crucial for longevity and maintenance. We offer several concrete finishes, including classic broomed, exposed aggregate, and stamped concrete, which can mimic natural stone or tile patterns.


Each option varies in texture, slip resistance, and heat retention properties. Our experts guide customers through these choices, highlighting durability under pool chemicals and sun exposure, as well as color options that blend with your home’s architecture.


Material selection impacts cleaning and upkeep. We aim to find solutions that reduce future maintenance while maintaining safety and visual appeal.

New Pool Deck Installations


For new pool deck projects, we follow a strict process starting with soil grading and compaction to create a stable base that prevents cracking or sinking over time.


We use high-quality concrete mixes enhanced with additives to improve strength and resistance to pool chemicals. After pouring, finishing techniques such as stamping or coloring are applied to achieve the desired texture and look.


Sealing is done as a final step to protect the surface from moisture and UV damage. Our installations are designed to withstand commercial-level wear if required, ensuring the deck remains functional and attractive for years.

Pool Deck Replacement


When replacing an existing pool deck, we begin by carefully removing old concrete and assessing the subbase for damage or weaknesses.


Our replacement service includes modernizing drainage systems and concrete foundation pouring to reinforce decks and enhance durability. We can also update the deck’s appearance using decorative options like stamped patterns or custom colors.


The goal is to improve both safety and curb appeal while addressing any structural issues that the original deck may have developed. This approach ensures your new pool deck performs better under heavy use and environmental stress.

Concrete Pool Decks Construction FAQs

  • How much does a concrete pool deck cost per square foot?

    Standard concrete pool decks range from $8 to $18 per square foot for broom-finished surfaces, while decorative options like stamped, colored, or exposed aggregate concrete cost $12 to $25 per square foot. Commercial pool decks typically fall between $10 to $15 per square foot due to larger scale and simpler finishes. Pricing factors include deck size, site preparation needs, drainage system installation, and whether working around existing pools or new construction.

  • Can you resurface an existing cracked pool deck?

    Yes, we resurface damaged pool decks using polymer-modified overlays that create a new 1/4 to 3/8 inch surface layer, costing $3 to $7 per square foot for basic repairs. For more extensive renovations, we apply decorative overlays or spray-texture coatings like Cool Deck that repair cracks while reducing surface temperature by up to 30%. Severe structural damage requires partial demolition and repouring before resurfacing, but most decks can be restored without complete replacement.

  • How long does it take to install a new concrete pool deck?

    Typical residential pool decks of 800 to 1,200 square feet take 5 to 7 days including excavation, forming, steel placement, pouring, and finishing. Commercial projects ranging from 3,000 to 5,000 square feet require 10 to 14 days to complete. While foot traffic is possible after 48 hours and furniture can be placed after 7 days, full concrete strength develops over 28 days.

  • Do you build pool decks for commercial properties and hotels?

    Yes, El Monte Elite Concrete Solutions specializes in commercial pool deck installations for hotels, apartment complexes, fitness centers, and community pools. We ensure compliance with Los Angeles County Health Department requirements and ADA standards, incorporating proper drainage slopes, slip-resistant surfaces, and chlorine-resistant sealers designed for high-traffic areas. We coordinate with property managers to phase construction and maintain partial pool access when possible.

  • What's the best non-slip concrete finish for pool decks?

    The most effective non-slip finish combines light broom texture with penetrating sealers containing silica sand aggregates, providing excellent wet traction. Acrylic spray textures like Cool Deck or Sundek create an orange-peel surface that's both slip-resistant and heat-reflective, ideal for Southern California summers. Exposed aggregate finishes offer natural texture and decorative appeal while exceeding ADA requirements of 0.60 coefficient of friction for wet surfaces.
