Outdoor Living and Pool Decks Tullahoma, TN
#1 Outdoor Living and Pool Deck Installation Company in Tullahoma, TN
Outdoor living spaces matter in Tullahoma. Warm months last long, and backyards see steady use. Concrete patios and pool decks must handle heat, humidity, and sudden rain. Poor design leads to standing water, slick surfaces, and early cracking. Well-built concrete creates safe and comfortable spaces for daily use and gatherings. This page explains how outdoor living concrete and pool decks work, what makes them last, and why local conditions shape every decision.
We Offer a Variety of Outdoor Living and Pool Deck Installations!
Pool decks demand careful planning. Water exposure remains constant during warm months. The surface must resist slipping while staying comfortable under bare feet. This is why proper preparation is critical, such as:
- Sealing
- Waterproofing
- Texture
Finish choice affects both safety and durability. Smooth concrete cleans easily but may become slick when wet. Light texture improves traction without trapping dirt. Stamped finishes add depth and pattern while staying functional.

Our Process for Outdoor Living and Pool Decks!
Prepare the Area and Build the Frame
First, we need to mark where the new concrete deck will go. We dig out any grass, dirt, or old pavement to the right depth. We then bring in a strong, rocky material (called "base") and pack it down super flat and tight. Next, we build a strong wooden border, called a form, around the shape of the deck. This form will hold the wet concrete in place and make sure the finished deck has straight, clean edges. This preparation is the most important part for a long-lasting deck.
Lay Down Reinforcement
Before pouring any concrete, we add materials that make the deck much stronger and help it stay together for years. We put down steel reinforcement mesh or rebar (long steel bars) inside the form. These metal pieces act like a skeleton for the concrete, stopping it from cracking too much when the weather changes or when heavy things are placed on it. For pool decks, we also check that the ground slopes slightly away from the pool, so water drains off correctly.
Pour and Level the Concrete
Now it's time for the concrete! We mix high-quality concrete, making sure it has the right amount of water for strength. We then pour the wet concrete into the prepared form and all around the reinforcement. Our skilled team uses special tools to quickly spread the concrete evenly and push out any air bubbles. We then use a long, flat tool (a "screed") to make the top surface perfectly flat and level with the wooden form edges.
Finish and Cure the New Deck
Once the concrete is poured, we apply the final look. We use floats and trowels to make the surface smooth or add a non-slip texture, which is very important for a safe pool deck. If the customer wants a special color or pattern (like stamped concrete), we do that now. Finally, the deck needs to slowly dry and harden, a process called "curing." We keep it moist for several days, letting it get its maximum strength before anyone walks or puts furniture on their beautiful new outdoor living space.
