"The one guarantee you get with concrete is that it will crack."

I went with a basic concrete deck, but my concrete guy told me that the concrete actually comes with 3 guarantee's:

1) It'll get hard, 2) It'll crack, and 3) Nobody will steal it. :)

We went with pavers because the cost is the same according to my PB. The wife liked it and you know that the women eventually get whay they want.....LOL. Look at out thread " Our New Pool Build in Jacksonville, FL" The coping around the pool is Bullnose made by Tremron and the design is called Estate also made by Tremron. As you can see the existing concrete slab was covered with 1" pavers and matches the pool area and the patio outside the pool cage. Using pavers means that you will never see cracks and if you need to do some repairs all you have to do is lift the pavers and reinsert.

Thanks for looking...

I actually like the cracks in concrete, that is part of the "look". I also like how you can go with any color or pattern that you like.

Here is our deck which is stamped in a Grand Ashlar pattern.

Has anyone had any experience with Peacock Pavers specifically?

Sorry, digging up old posts thru google. Was curious if you used Peacock pavers when you did your pool (if your still around). My Aunt used them about 4 years ago and loves it. She has a SWG pool in New Orleans.

I'm looking at installing a SWG pool in Dallas Texas, and don't want to use OK Flagstone, any thoughts?
