Elegant, Safe & Durable Decking Around Your Pool

Why Choose Timber Decking Around Pools?

A well-designed timber deck pool area not only enhances the beauty of your outdoor space but also adds comfort, safety, and value to your property. Wood is a natural insulator, meaning it stays cooler underfoot compared to tiles or concrete – perfect for bare feet on sunny days.

If you’re considering decking around a pool, here are some of the key benefits of timber:

  • Non-slip finish for improved safety

  • Warmer, more natural look than stone or paving

  • Easier integration with garden landscaping

  • Flexible design options for curved or raised deck pool styles

 

What Is the Best Wood for Pool Decking?

The best timber for swimming pool decking is one that offers natural resistance to water, rot, and insects. We typically recommend:

  • Ipe (Brazilian Walnut) – extremely durable and dense

  • Teak – naturally resistant to water and decay

  • Thermally Treated Ash or Pine – eco-friendly and highly stable

  • Composite options – for low maintenance decking that mimics the look of timber

Looking for a modern finish? Ask us about swimming pool composite decking – a popular choice for those who want the appearance of wood with minimal upkeep.

When properly installed and maintained, a high-quality wooden pool deck can last 15 to 25 years. This depends on the timber species, weather exposure, and regular maintenance like oiling or sealing. We provide guidance on how to care for your pool timber decking to maximise its lifespan.

Above Ground Pool Deck Solutions

Have an above ground pool? We can design custom above ground pool decks that wrap around the structure, making entry and exit easier and creating a seamless lounging space.
