You’ll finally have a pool deck that doesn’t burn your feet on hot days. No more hopping from shade to shade or avoiding your pool area during peak hours.
Our paver pool decks stay significantly cooler than concrete, giving you a comfortable surface for barefoot walking even when it’s 95 degrees outside. The slip-resistant texture keeps everyone safe around wet areas, while proper drainage prevents that slippery buildup of mold and algae you see on other surfaces.
You get a pool deck that actually enhances your outdoor living instead of limiting it. Your family can enjoy the pool area all day, and you’ll have confidence hosting gatherings without worrying about guests burning their feet or slipping on wet surfaces.
We’ve been the go-to pool deck builder for Bushnell and Citrus County families for nearly three decades. We’re not just another contractor – we’re your neighbors who understand exactly what Florida’s climate does to outdoor surfaces.
As authorized contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, we use only premium materials specifically engineered for our harsh conditions. We’re also the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in Citrus County, which means you get products that aren’t available from other contractors.
What sets us apart is our “beyond meticulous” approach. We’ve seen too many pool decks fail because corners were cut during installation. That’s why we do the base prep right, use proper reinforcement, and install every project like it’s going in our own backyard.
We start with a thorough site evaluation to understand your space, drainage needs, and design preferences. This isn’t a quick measurement – we’re looking at how water flows, where shade falls, and how the deck will integrate with your existing landscape.
Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This is where most contractors cut corners, but it’s the foundation of a long-lasting deck. We excavate to the correct depth, install a compacted limestone base with proper thickness, and add the right bedding sand layer. Every step follows ICPI standards.
Then we install your pavers with precision spacing and alignment, followed by joint sand application and compaction. We finish with a protective sealant application that helps your pavers resist staining and makes maintenance easier. The entire process typically takes 3-5 days depending on size and complexity, and we clean up completely each day.

We exclusively use paver materials proven to perform in Central Florida’s brutal conditions. Travertine pavers are our most popular choice because they naturally stay cool underfoot and resist heat absorption, even in direct sunlight. Concrete pavers offer excellent durability and come in numerous colors and textures to match your style.
For luxury installations, we offer porcelain pavers that provide superior slip resistance and virtually no maintenance requirements. All our materials are UV-resistant and designed to handle the temperature swings and moisture levels common in the Bushnell area.
The key difference is in our material sourcing and installation standards. We don’t use generic pavers from big box stores. Every product comes from our authorized partnerships with premium manufacturers, ensuring you get materials specifically engineered for pool environments. This means better color retention, superior slip resistance, and longer lifespan in our climate.
Pool deck costs in Bushnell typically range from $8 to $18 per square foot for quality paver installation, depending on the material and complexity of your design. For an average 400-square-foot pool deck, you’re looking at $3,200 to $7,200.
The investment varies based on your material choice, site conditions, and design features. Travertine runs on the higher end but stays cooler and lasts longer. Concrete pavers offer excellent value with good performance. Complex patterns or multi-level designs increase labor costs.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Most families find the investment pays off quickly in increased home value and daily enjoyment of their pool area.
Travertine pavers are the gold standard for Florida pool decks because they naturally resist heat absorption and stay comfortable barefoot even on 100-degree days. The stone’s cellular structure and light color reflect heat rather than absorbing it.
Light-colored concrete pavers are the next best option, offering good heat resistance at a lower price point. Porcelain pavers also perform well and require minimal maintenance. The key is avoiding dark colors and materials like stamped concrete that can become painfully hot.
We always recommend seeing and feeling material samples on hot days before making your decision. What looks good in a showroom might be unbearable on your feet in July. Our material selection focuses on performance first, then aesthetics.
Most pool deck installations in Bushnell take 3 to 5 working days, depending on the size and complexity of your project. A straightforward 400-square-foot deck typically takes 3 days, while larger or more intricate designs may require up to a week.
Weather can affect timing since we won’t install pavers in heavy rain or when the ground is saturated. We also factor in proper curing time for base materials. Rushing the process leads to problems later, so we stick to proven timelines.
We provide a detailed schedule during your estimate and keep you updated on progress. Most of the disruption happens during excavation on day one. After that, you can usually access other parts of your yard while we work.
Pool deck projects in Bushnell typically require permits, especially if you’re adding new hardscaping or changing drainage patterns. Permit requirements depend on the size and scope of your project, but most paver installations need approval.
We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service. This ensures your project meets local building codes and HOA requirements if applicable. Proper permitting also protects your investment and prevents issues when you sell your home.
The permit process usually takes 1-2 weeks and costs $150-$300 depending on project scope. We factor permit timing into your project schedule so there are no delays once we start installation.
Paver pool deck maintenance is surprisingly simple when installed correctly. Regular hosing removes most dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild detergent and soft brush monthly during swimming season.
The most important maintenance is resealing every 2-3 years to protect against staining and enhance color retention. We use premium sealers that resist pool chemicals and UV damage. Joint sand may need occasional topping off, especially after heavy rains.
Proper maintenance keeps your deck looking new and prevents costly repairs. We provide detailed care instructions and can handle annual maintenance if you prefer professional service. Most homeowners find the upkeep much easier than maintaining a concrete deck.
Pavers outperform stamped concrete in Florida’s pool environment in several key ways. Individual pavers can expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking, while concrete develops cracks that are expensive to repair and often look worse over time.
Pavers also stay significantly cooler underfoot because of the joint lines that allow air circulation and heat dissipation. If a paver gets damaged, you can replace individual pieces rather than redoing entire sections like with concrete.
The slip resistance is superior with pavers, especially when wet. Stamped concrete can become dangerously slippery around pools despite texture treatments. Pavers maintain their grip even when saturated, making them safer for families with children.
