Why Choose Our Pool Deck Installation

Pool decking defines the look, safety, and feel of your pool area. Burloak Landscaping designs and installs custom pool patios using materials like travertine, porcelain tile, and interlocking pavers to create stunning, slip-resistant, and heat-friendly pool surrounds.

We work alongside pool builders and outdoor living designers to ensure seamless integration of coping, drainage, and elevation. Whether you’re building new or upgrading, our pool area design services create beautiful and functional spaces for relaxation and entertaining.

Signs You Need New Pool Decking

  1. Cracked or Aging Pool Surrounds

Old concrete becomes brittle, slippery, and unattractive. Deck resurfacing with pavers or flagstone improves safety and looks.

  1. Overheating Deck Surfaces

Concrete and asphalt get dangerously hot in summer. We install heat-resistant pool surfaces like travertine or brushed concrete.

  1. Slippery Pool Area

We use non-slip decking materials with textured finishes to protect children and seniors from slip hazards.

  1. Pool Patio Doesn’t Match the Yard

Your deck should enhance your entire landscape. We create outdoor pool decks that integrate with gardens, patios, and retaining walls.

  1. Lack of Functional Poolside Features

Add value with integrated planters, lighting, water features, or outdoor kitchens around your pool.

We hired another landscaping company in Feb to start our project in June. That company bailed the last minute and left me hanging in the middle of the busy summer season. I called 30 companies, majority of them did not even bother to return my calls. Only a 2 came and gave me a quote. Everyone else were busy and booked until end of August ect. I called Bur-Oak and Mark immediately replied to my email and came out gave me a quote. He was very reasonable and was trying very hard to redo the quotes several times to fit my budget. Burl-Oak Landscaping is an amazing and well run company. The whole team was always on time, professional and did exactly what they promised and more. Strongly recommend this group of hard working team members. The whole team, Mark the business manager, the owner Louya, Tony and Dan the foremen. I cannot say enough good things about this dynamic team. Thank you gentlemen. I am glad I found you and I look forward to continue working with you in the future.

Excellent experience from start to finish and would highly recommend the team to everyone. Mark and the team helped us completely transform our backyard into a highly functional part of our home. Mark in particular went above and beyond time and time again - from coming up with a solution to a logistical problem (my backyard was difficult to access), and providing a very fair price for the job, to collaborating with us on design. The best customer service and experience that I have had with any contractor. Dan and Tony helped the team execute and complete the job in a very timely and efficient manner.

Burl-Oak Landscaping did my families place in Mississauga. They did such a phenomenal job, we asked them to do our driveway and side of the house in Hamilton. They used permeable interlocking so our tree was safe, and it has held up for a few years (unlike our neighbours concrete or asphalt drives). We liked their work so much, we had them back this past year to update our back yard with landscaping and a new patio.

We are returning customers of Burl-Oak Landscaping. We had our front steps and retaining wall completed in 2019 and were happy with their work. We just had them back to build a stone backyard patio with steps and plants. The patio looks great and we are excited to use it for the remainder of the summer. As soon as we reached out, Mark came to hear our ideas and gave us a quote with some suggestions of his own for improvement. Louay, Tony, and the team arrived promptly and completed our project in a timely manner with great professionalism. We were glad to have them back so that they could bring our backyard vision to life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Decking

What’s the best material for pool decking?

Travertine, interlocking pavers, and porcelain tile are all excellent for pool decks due to their non-slip, cool-surface properties.

How much does pool deck installation cost?

Most installations range from $25 to $60 per square foot depending on material, design complexity, and drainage requirements.

Can you replace just the deck and keep the pool?

Yes. We specialize in deck renovation and resurfacing for existing pools, including coping and drainage upgrades.

Will my pool deck be slippery when wet?

We use non-slip decking options that include textured finishes, paver joint sand, and surface sealants for safe use.

Do you integrate lighting and outdoor features?

Yes. We can include step lighting, planters, built-in benches, and water features in your custom deck plan.
