What is the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck?

• <div><p>A concrete overlay is often the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck. To do this, you’ll need to pour a thin layer of concrete over the existing pool deck, which you can customize by stamping or painting. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stamped-concrete-adds-affordable-appeal-outdoor-patios.htm">stamped concrete</a> overlay provides additional traction on a pool deck that can help minimize the risk of people slipping and falling. </p></div>

Q: How do you seal a leaky concrete slab?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-seal-concrete.htm">seal a concrete slab</a> by cleaning the surface, filling in any cracks, etching the surface, applying a sealer, and letting it dry. Concrete slabs don't typically need sealing, but you can use a topical concrete sealer if you notice signs of water damage. If you haven't already fixed the cause of the leak, then you'll want to repair the plumbing before you seal a concrete slab.</p></div>

Q: What chemicals are used to bond old concrete to new concrete?

• <div><p>You'll find a slurry of natural and synthetic polymers, rubbers, epoxies, and resins used to bond old concrete to new concrete. The right bonding agent depends on the method of concrete pouring you choose and whether you're adhering concrete over concrete or concrete over sand and gravel. Some concrete resurfacing mixtures contain bonding chemicals as well. </p></div>

Q: How thick does a concrete overlay need to be?

• <div><p>A concrete overlay should be 1/4 of an inch to 2 inches thick to form a strong layer on top of a base slab. The thickness depends on the condition of the existing concrete and the depth of your design and imprints. You should repair and clean the surface before applying a primer and a layer of fresh concrete. </p></div>

Q: Do you need to seal resurfaced concrete?

• <div><p>Sealing resurfaced concrete is not an absolute necessity. However, it is recommended, and in most cases, a high-quality concrete sealer can protect the surface from stains as well as water penetration, extending the life of the resurfacing material. Some sealers are formulated to protect pigments from fading due to UV exposure. Sealer tends to enhance the colors in decorative resurfacing applications, making them more vibrant and richer compared to the duller, more faded appearance of concrete colors without sealer. </p></div>
