What Are Concrete Pool Surrounds?
Concrete pool surrounds are the poured concrete surfaces that frame pool perimeters and create transition zones between pools and gardens, lawns, or entertainment areas. These surfaces must handle moisture, chemicals, temperature extremes, and heavy traffic.
This specialized concrete work requires understanding of proper base preparation, reinforcement placement, expansion joint location, finishing techniques, and curing methods specific to pool environments.
• Site Analysis & Design Planning We assess soil conditions, drainage requirements, and space usage. Design plans establish slopes, expansion joints, and finish selections that ensure long-term performance.
• Base Excavation & Preparation Proper depth excavation and compacted bases prevent settling and cracking. We build stable foundations that support concrete weight and usage loads without movement.
• Reinforcement & Formwork Installation Steel mesh or bar reinforcement prevents cracking from temperature changes and stress. Formwork creates precise edges, curves, and levels throughout installations.
• Concrete Pouring & Finishing Quality concrete mixes are poured and finished to create desired surface textures. Timing and technique determine whether surfaces are smooth, textured, or ready for additional treatments.
• Curing, Sealing & Protection Proper curing prevents premature cracking and ensures strength development. Appropriate sealers protect surfaces from staining, chemicals, and weathering while maintaining appearance.
Whether you need basic concrete pool surrounds or elaborate decorative concrete pool surrounds, our licensed concreters deliver installations that combine safety with style.

Pool Paint Colours: How to Choose the Perfect Shade for Your Backyard
A guide to choosing pool paint colours. Covers how different colours look underwater, which shades work with each surface type, how sunlight and surroundings affect the result, and what to consider before committing to a colour.

Green Pool After Rain: Why It Happens and How to Fix It
Rain dilutes chlorine, lowers pH and alkalinity, and washes in debris and phosphates, so a pool can turn green within 24 to 48 hours. Learn why it happens, how to read the colour, the step-by-step fix, how to prevent it before the next storm, and when to call a professional.

Pool Coping Repair: What Causes Coping to Crack, When to Repair vs Replace, and the Materials That Last Longest in Sydney
Pool coping is the material that caps the top edge of your pool shell. It is the visible border between the pool water and the surrounding deck, and it serves a structural, waterproofing, and safety function that most pool owners do not think about until it starts to fail. Cracked coping, loose coping stones, coping that has separated from the pool shell, and coping with deteriorated mortar joints are not just cosmetic issues. Damaged coping allows water behind the pool shell, creates trip hazards around the pool edge, and accelerates damage to the surrounding paving and the pool structure underneath.

I have no hesitation in strongly endorsing Ray from Advance Pool Painting. Ray has just completed a refurbishment of our apartment pool and apart from delivering a most professional finish, Ray has called back twice to satisfy 'extra' requests from residents - promptly and without any reaction to what was an obvious inconvenience. It is rarely I have dealt with such an efficient, friendly and co-operative contractor. Thank you Ray and I wish you every success in operating a great business.
