At Permaco Concrete Coatings, we install tested, slip-resistant, and heat-reflective coatings built for North Carolina’s humidity, high UV exposure, and heavy foot traffic.
According to the NC State Climate Office (2024), uncovered pool decks across the state can reach temperatures between 120° and 140°F during summer.
Our cool-touch polyaspartic systems reflect heat, improve traction, and prevent concrete cracking or discoloration over time. From North Hills Club in Raleigh to Myers Park pools in Charlotte, Permaco delivers surfaces that are safe, durable, and engineered for comfort.
What Are Pool Deck Coatings and Why They Matter in North Carolina
A concrete pool coating is a protective and decorative layer applied to the surface of a concrete swimming pool to seal the concrete, prevent water penetration, resist chemicals and UV damage, and provide a smooth, attractive finish.
Common types include epoxy, acrylic, and rubberized coatings. A high-quality system prevents surface erosion, fading, and slipping, all while staying cooler to the touch.
In North Carolina’s hot, humid climate, unsealed concrete quickly absorbs moisture, expands under heat, and fades under direct sun. Over time, that leads to cracking, chalking, and surface erosion.
Modern coating systems, such as epoxy, acrylic, and rubberized blends, are engineered to resist these regional challenges while staying cooler to the touch. A quality coating not only improves durability but also keeps decks comfortable for bare feet and visually appealing year after year.

Why Choose Permaco Concrete Coatings
Choosing the right contractor for your pool deck means finding one that treats coatings as a science, not a shortcut. At Permaco Concrete Coatings, every surface is tested, measured, and installed to perform under North Carolina’s toughest outdoor conditions.
Engineered for Heat, Moisture, and Safety
Our coatings are built for North Carolina’s climate, resisting UV rays, humidity, and chemical exposure. Unlike thin, roll-on sealers, Permaco systems use cool-touch, slip-resistant coatings that stay comfortable and safe, even when surface temperatures climb above 120°F in midsummer.
Tested on Every Job
Before coating, we perform moisture, scratch, and porosity tests to determine exact adhesion needs. This makes sure the system bonds properly to your deck, preventing bubbling, flaking, or slick spots, a must for high-foot-traffic pools at places like North Hills Club (Raleigh) or Myers Park (Charlotte).
Customized Outdoor Systems
We don’t install one-size-fits-all coatings. Each blend is mixed and adjusted to your surface and location, polyaspartic systems for high UV areas, epoxy-poly hybrids for shaded decks, and textured quartz finishes for HOAs and public pools like Triangle Aquatic Center.
Warranties Backed by Data, Not Promises
Every warranty we issue is supported by measurable test results, adhesion PSI, slip rating, and curing data, so you know exactly what performance to expect. No vague terms, no hidden exclusions.
Experience You Can See
With over 10 years in construction and coatings, our North Carolina-based team has resurfaced decks in Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte, and Wilmington. Every job is completed by trained Permaco installers, never subcontracted crews.
Local Team. Lasting Relationships.
We live where we work, serving communities from Cary Park to Landfall and Grandover Village. Our clients choose us because we prioritize precision, communication, and craftsmanship, and we treat every deck like it’s our own backyard.
5 Types of Pool Deck Concrete Coatings
Not all concrete coatings perform the same, especially in North Carolina’s mix of heat, humidity, and seasonal storms. The right system depends on your deck’s age, condition, and how you use it.
At Permaco, we help homeowners, HOAs, and facilities across Raleigh, Cary, and Wilmington choose the best fit for lasting protection and comfort.
- Epoxy Coatings
Epoxy creates a hard, glossy finish that seals concrete against moisture and chemicals. It’s ideal for indoor pools or shaded outdoor areas but can yellow under constant UV exposure if not topcoated. - Acrylic Coatings
Acrylics are popular for North Carolina’s hot summers, they reflect heat, resist fading, and stay cooler underfoot. These coatings can be textured for traction and are easy to refresh over time, making them a top choice for residential and community pools. - Polyaspartic Coatings
Polyaspartic systems cure quickly and resist UV, abrasion, and chemical damage, making them a go-to for commercial and high-traffic areas. They maintain color and gloss even under direct sunlight. - Rubberized and Elastomeric Coatings
Flexible and cushioned, these coatings add comfort and safety for family-friendly or recreational spaces. Their ability to expand and contract makes them ideal for outdoor decks exposed to shifting temperatures and moisture. - Stamped or Decorative Overlays
For homeowners wanting a custom look, decorative overlays can mimic stone, tile, or wood textures while providing the same protection as standard coatings. They’re especially popular in upscale neighborhoods and resort-style pool areas.

Our Pool Deck Coating Process for Raleigh Homes and Facilities
A durable pool deck starts with the right prep for North Carolina’s heat, humidity, and high foot traffic. At Permaco, we tailor every step to Raleigh’s unique climate and pool environments.
Step 1: Surface Evaluation
We test your concrete’s hardness and porosity to allow for strong adhesion, especially important for older decks in neighborhoods and community pools like Millbrook Exchange.
Step 2: Precision Grinding
Each deck gets a custom surface profile. A residential pool in Brier Creek, for instance, requires different prep than a large public facility in Cary. Proper grinding prevents peeling and weak spots.
Step 3: Custom Samples
We create full-size 4×4 sample boards of your selected finish so you can see exactly how it will look before installation.
Step 4: Coating Application
After approval, we apply coatings formulated for slip resistance, heat control, and durability. Most projects are completed within two to three days, weather permitting.
Step 5: Final Inspection
Once cured, we check every inch for texture, bond, and appearance. From backyard decks to busy spaces like Pullen Aquatic Center, we confirm a safe, long-lasting finish that stands up to North Carolina summers.
