An average job will take 1 to 2 days. Larger, more complex jobs may take longer. Clean foot traffic is usually allowed within the same day.

No, the pool should be full. If the pool were empty, any overspray would stain the plaster. If full, any small amount of overspray can be dealt with by allowing the overspray to settle to the bottom, then shutting off the filter, and pumping the material to waste and bypassing all filters.

All existing control joints should remain in the surface to allow for expansion and contraction of the original concrete. They are not coated and are masked off. We can, however, work to ensure these joints match the rest of the look of the surfaces.

No. Kool Deck is a product that must be applied to freshly poured concrete within 5 hours in order to bond. Our systems can be applied to new or old concrete.

No, the sealer we apply is not affected by most chemicals.

We can generally improve drainage; however, the degree of success is contingent upon the pitch of the concrete adjacent to the low spot. The low spot will have to be looked at personally to let you know what you can expect.

Though we do everything possible to treat cracks and do eliminate 90% of them, it is possible they may reoccur. If they do, it is usually in the form of a hairline, which is not objectionable as it is largely hidden in the texture. However, if a crack becomes too objectionable, it is easy to repair. Proper placement of tension cuts greatly reduces the chance of the crack returning. Check cracking is a natural phenomenon which occurs in rock, dried-out mud flats, paint, and concrete and in ceramic coatings. Cracks in the concrete may be structural or surface cracks. Surface cracks are generally less than a few millimeters wide and deep. These are often called hairline or check cracks and may consist of single, thin cracks, or cracks in a craze/map-like pattern. A small number of surface or shrinkage cracks is common and does not usually cause any problems. Surface cracks can be caused by freezing and thawing, poor construction practices, and alkali-aggregate reactivity. Alkali-aggregate reactivity occurs when the aggregate reacts with the cement causing crazing or check cracks. Structural cracks in the concrete are usually larger than 1/8 inch in width. They extend deeper into the concrete and may extend all the way through a wall, slab, or other structural member. Structural cracks are often caused by settlement of the fill material supporting the concrete structure, or by loss of the fill support due to erosion. The structural cracks may worsen in severity due to the forces of weathering.

The material is repairable to its original state. We service all decks past warranty.

Yes, quite easily.

The price depends on a number of factors, such as the condition of the original concrete, the patterns chosen, etc.

Usually, normal washing with a hose is all that is needed. For stubborn stains, use a brush with laundry detergent.
