Concrete pool decks are everywhere in North Jersey - and they all have the same problem. They crack. They stain. They get rough and slippery over time. This homeowner in Parsippany-Troy Hills had enough of that and wanted something that actually looked good and held up. So we tore out the old concrete and installed a full Cambridge paver deck around the pool.
Here's how we started: full demolition. You can see the skid steer on site breaking out and clearing the old concrete slab. Once that was out, we prepped the base properly - raked and leveled the aggregate bed so every paver would sit flat and true. We kept a level on the job the whole way through. That part matters more than most people realize. A poorly pitched deck drains water toward the pool instead of away from it.
Cambridge Pavers are one of the best choices for a pool surround. They're engineered with a slip-resistant finish, they handle freeze-thaw cycles without cracking the way poured concrete does, and if something ever shifts or needs repair down the road, individual pavers can be pulled and reset - no jackhammer required. The large-format tile look we used here gives it a clean, modern feel that holds up season after season.
The finished deck wraps the entire pool with tight joints and consistent color throughout. The edgework along the pool coping is clean, and the whole surface sits level and flush. Paired with the pergola, outdoor kitchen, and seating area already on the property, this backyard now actually looks like it belongs together.
This is the kind of job we do regularly for homeowners across Parsippany-Troy Hills and the surrounding Morris County area. If your concrete pool deck is cracking, lifting, or just looking worn out, pavers are worth a serious look.
