How Pool Water Affects Your Hardscaping and Decking
Hardscaping helps to form the foundation of your pool area, setting the tone and aesthetic for your pool and its surroundings. Typical elements found in hardscaping are stone, pumice, concrete, brick, wood, and pavers. These items, while excellent as hardscaping materials, are also porous; when exposed to chlorinated pool water, they can be damaged significantly and may require replacement. Stone and brick will erode, while wood and composite decking will swell, fade, crack, and peel when combined with the sun and heat.
While chlorine is an essential chemical for pool maintenance and keeps the water clean and safe, it will eat away at hardscaping materials – inevitably causing discoloration, cracking, and pitting. Not only does this diminish the aesthetics of your pool and surrounding area, but it also greatly affects your hardscape’s overall structural integrity.
In saltwater pools, this process, known as “spalling” in the maritime community, is even more detrimental. Salt can be incredibly corrosive and accelerate the wearing down of your hardscape elements. Saltwater pools leave behind salt deposits after the water evaporates – even if you’re not splashing around, just getting in and out of your pool can cause excess wear on your surrounding hardscape. Spalling can cause expensive repairs, frequent maintenance, and sometimes even outright replacements.
How to Mitigate Hardscape and Deck Damage
The most effective way to mitigate the damage caused by pool water on your hardscape and decking is regular cleaning of your pool tiles. With time, the chemicals necessary for your pool’s maintenance will begin to build up on your pool tiles, maximizing the amount of these chemicals that unintentionally end up in the water.
By regularly cleaning your pool tiles, you’ll reduce the buildup of chemicals and the amount of damage that errant pool water can cause. Supreme Pool Tile Cleaning offers efficient and meticulous cleaning services, which will help to keep your pool and surrounding areas in top shape.
