If you are on the fence about wheater or not one of these coatings is the right choice for your project then simply reach out to us and we will give you an honest answer.
A Pool Deck Coating Will Make Your Concrete Waterproof and Chemical Resistant
Contrary to popular belief the concrete used to build inground pools is not waterproof; instead, it is watertight.
A watertight concrete pool is designed to keep the water inside the pool and not let it soak through the concrete into the ground. This is how all pools are designed. This is why the concrete for inground pools is considered ‘watertight’ it will not let the water go into the ground.
Waterproof on the other hand is when water will not affect it. Your concrete will absorb a certain level of water on the surface without a coating. Normally, this is not a problem if the water evaporates fast enough. However, if water is left to pool on your concrete then it can lead to some big problems.
Uncoated pool deck concrete can crack in the winter here in Knoxville. This happens when the concrete absorbs a tiny bit of liquid water and then the water freezes, this expands the concrete and over time will lead to a crack.
However, if you grab one of our amazing polyurea pool deck concrete coatings your concrete will be waterproof. No water will be absorbed by the concrete and as such you will not have to worry about it ever cracking. On top of this our coatings are built to withstand nearly any type of chemical you can throw at it.
As such, when you get one of our concrete coatings you are getting the absolute best protection that money can buy for your pool deck. No cracks, divots, or chemical damage; just stylish concrete.
Our Coatings Are UV Resistant and Will Not Fade
Another reason why people in Knoxville are deciding to get ahead of summer and install a concrete coating on their pool deck is that the right coating is both UV resistant and will not fade.
This is where the right type of pool coating comes in. Ufortuently, most people decide to go with an epoxy coating here in Eastern Tennessee when they should go with a polyurea one instead.
The reason why you should get a polyurea coating instead of an epoxy one is that a polyurea coating is both UV resistant and it will not fade. Epoxy on the other hand will absorb UV light and begin to fade slowly over time.
This fading with epoxy pool deck coatings will happen unevenly and leads to the industry term ‘yellowing.’ Regardless of which color epoxy coating you get small spots will begin to form and grow that have an amber color associated with them. This can lead to some ugly discoloration that you will have to pay to have touched up after a while.
However, if you go with a polyurea coating you are going to be getting a concrete coating on your pool deck that will retain its color for the life of the coating. There will be no ‘yellowing’ or discoloration of any kind.
A Polyurea Coating From Madjack Will Be Done in About a Day Whereas Other Coating Companies Take Upwards to 3 Days.
Time is money, especially when it comes to valuable investments such as your pool. One of the main reasons why people chose us over other competitors for their pool deck is that we can have the entire thing done in 24 hours while it takes them upwards of 3 days.
The reason why it takes other concrete coating companies between 2-3 days to finish installing your pool deck concrete coating is because of the epoxy coating that most companies use.
Epoxy is made with an organic resin compound that will slowly harden into a non-flexible coating. This process takes upwards of 3 days because of environmental factors such as humidity and heat. Further, while it may sound good that the epoxy coating is ‘non-flexible’ in reality it is bad.
This is because concrete is always in a moving state. From shifting earth to things we drop on it your concrete needs to be able to absorb the impact so it does not crack. Now picture your concrete having the ability to adapt where your coating does not, something will eventually go and that’s your coating.
Here at Madjack, we install polyurea coatings. Unlike an epoxy coating, our polyurea coatings will remain flexible enough to ‘flow’ while being durable enough to withstand anything you can throw or roll over it. We know our products will stand up to the test of time, which is why we offer a 15-year warranty!
On top of this, an epoxy coating will take upwards of 3 days to finally settle enough for you to use your new pool deck. Our polyurea coatings are done within 1 day. This gets you back to enjoying your pool faster.
