Rockingham and Beyond
Concrete offers unmatched durability, flexibility, and design versatility—making it an ideal material for pool decks and surrounds. Unlike pavers or tiles, concrete can be poured seamlessly around any shape, ensuring a smooth, non-slip surface that complements your outdoor space. It’s also resistant to wear, UV rays, and moisture, making it ideal for high-use pool areas.
A timeless, budget-friendly choice suitable for both residential pools and larger commercial installations.
Bring life to your pool area with vibrant or subtle hues that enhance your landscape and outdoor decor.
For those seeking a textured, premium finish, exposed aggregate offers visual appeal with a natural stone look—our most luxurious pool surround option.

Installation
Process
The installation timeline for a concrete pool surround typically ranges between 1 to 3 weeks, depending on several factors such as site size, design complexity, weather, and contractor availability.
General breakdown of the process:
Site Preparation (3–7 days): Includes excavation, leveling, and setting up the formwork.
Pouring & Finishing (1–2 days): Concrete is poured and finished with your desired texture or design.
Curing (7 days): The concrete cures and hardens. During this time, avoid walking or placing heavy items on the surface.
Sealing & Final Touches (1–2 days): A sealant is applied to protect the concrete and complete the project.
You can expect a few weeks from start to finish for a durable, attractive finish.
The cost of a concrete pool surround can vary significantly based on a number of project-specific elements:
Size and Shape: Larger or more intricate designs require more materials and labour.
Finish Type: Decorative finishes like exposed aggregate or coloured concrete add to the cost.
Site Conditions: Extra work such as demolition, leveling, or drainage can increase pricing.
Labour & Materials: Local market rates and material availability will also influence the price.
Estimated cost: Between $85 and $150 per square metre. For an accurate quote, it’s best to consult with our Rockingham team for a tailored assessment.
Although concrete may look dry within hours, it needs time to gain strength. In most cases:
Light foot traffic is safe after 24 to 48 hours.
Avoid placing furniture or heavy items for at least 7 days to allow for full curing.
Following these guidelines ensures your pool surround remains strong and crack-free for years.
The ideal thickness for a concrete pool surround is usually between 100mm and 150mm (4–6 inches).
Factors that influence thickness include:
Load Requirements: Heavier loads may need additional thickness.
Soil Stability: Poor or unstable soil may require thicker concrete and reinforcement.
Reinforcement: Adding steel rebar or mesh improves strength and reduces cracking risks.
A professional concreter will assess your site and recommend the correct thickness for durability and long-term performance.
Absolutely. A concrete pool surround offers numerous long-term benefits:
High Durability: Resists wear from sun, water, and foot traffic.
Customisable Design: Choose from finishes like plain, coloured, or exposed aggregate.
Property Value Boost: A well-installed pool surround enhances the overall appeal of your outdoor space.
Low Maintenance: Unlike pavers or wood, concrete needs minimal upkeep—just occasional cleaning and sealing.
With proper installation and care, your concrete surround can last for decades while keeping your pool area stylish and safe.
Yes, safety is a top priority—especially around pools. Non-slip options are available to enhance grip and prevent accidents:
Textured Finishes: Broom or stipple finishes create natural traction.
Anti-Slip Additives: Grit, silica sand, or polymer additives can be mixed into the surface.
Post-Cure Sealers: Non-slip sealers can be applied after curing for added grip.
Non-Slip Tiles or Pavers: For those wanting a tiled finish, non-slip variants are available.
We recommend discussing the best non-slip solution with your contractor to suit your design, climate, and usage.
