What is pool coping?

Coping is the part of your pool that you grab onto when you exit the pool or swim along the edges. It provides a viable grip around the edges of your pool and gently pushes any residual water toward deck drains. It also creates a definite divide between your pool’s shell and the water. Without pool coping, the only thing separating your pool and the deck would be slabs of concrete or gunite.

Pool coping is a necessary aspect of your pool. So, if you’re thinking about remodeling your pool, JR Pool Plastering & Texas Gunite Ltd. can show you various options that can make your new and improved pool stand out. Even a brief retile and recoping project can make your pool get the glow up it needs.

Where Should I Start With Updating My Pool Coping?

Start by considering the size of your project. Even small updates, such as retiling or replacing the pool coping, can give your pool a fresh, new look. As you plan your project, consider other enhancements you might want to make to complement the updated style.

Concrete Coping

Concrete coping is the easiest to work with and the most affordable option out of all of those available. Not only that, but concrete is also versatile enough to mesh well with various designs, making it one of the most popular choices for pool coping.

Paver Stone or Brick

You can arrange pavers into a myriad of patterns because they come in various colors, textures, and finishes. They’re a popular choice after concrete because of their versatile appearance. Considering both pavers and bricks come in single pieces, if one portion breaks or cracks, you can easily replace it unlike with concrete.

Travertine

Travertine is a type of natural stone that comes in various warm-toned colors, such as white, tan, cream, and a rusty brown. Sealed and treated properly, it provides a naturally slip-resistant surface and usually stays cool to the touch. It’s also more affordable compared to other natural stones, like marble.

Sandstone

Sandstone coping gives your pool coping a unique look because this natural stone has unusual color, grain, and texture. Although it’s noticeable from a distance, it needs to be treated properly with sealant and tends to retain heat, so it’s not as popular here under the Southern sun.

Flagstone

Flagstones come in various sizes and colors, and their appearance can make anyone go, “Wow.” However, like other natural stones, they need to be sealed to maintain their beautiful appearance, and they tend to retain heat, although that’s never stopped them from being a popular choice.
