Apex Epoxy Surfaces provides concrete coating, surface preparation, and resurfacing services for existing pool decks and outdoor concrete throughout the Omaha metro. We focus on coating and upgrading the concrete you already have — we don't build pools or install brand-new pool decks from scratch.
If your pool deck is cracked, faded, rough, slippery, or peeling, the right prep and coating system can bring it back to a clean, safer, more finished-looking outdoor space around the water.
Problems This Service Solves
- Cracked or spalled concrete around the pool
- Worn, faded, or chalky surfaces from years of sun exposure
- Rough, uneven areas that are hard on bare feet
- Slippery pool deck concrete near the water
- Staining from leaves, chemicals, and weather
- Peeling or failing previous coatings and sealers
- General weather and freeze-thaw wear common in Nebraska
Where It Works Best
- Residential concrete pool decks
- Concrete patios adjacent to pool areas
- Outdoor entertaining slabs and walkways
- Pool deck re-coats where a previous coating has failed
- Existing decks that need a cleaner, more finished look
Surface Preparation
Coating quality and lifespan come from the prep. Here's what's typically involved before any coating goes down:
- Evaluate the deck: cracking, spalling, prior coatings, drainage, and sun exposure
- Diamond grinding or appropriate mechanical prep for the coating system
- Crack chasing and structural / cosmetic crack repair
- Patching of spalled or worn areas
- Removal of failed previous coatings or sealers when required
- Cleaning and drying of the surface before coating
Coating System Options
Decorative Concrete Coating
Color and texture options designed for outdoor concrete around pools — cleaner appearance and better UV stability than untreated concrete.
Slip-Resistant Texture Topcoat
Aggregate or texture additives blended into the topcoat for improved traction in wet, barefoot pool deck areas.
UV-Stable Outdoor Topcoat
Topcoat options selected for outdoor UV exposure so the finish holds up better against fading and chalking over time.
Repair-First Refresh
For decks with heavy cracking or spalling, we start with crack repair and patching before recommending a coating system that fits the slab's condition.
What to Expect on the Project

- UV-stable topcoat where the system calls for it
- Walk-through, cure guidance, and care instructions
Honest Timing
Pool deck projects are scoped per site. Timing depends on square footage, the amount of repair required, weather, and the selected coating system. Outdoor coatings also need appropriate temperature and dry conditions to install and cure. We'll give you a realistic weather-aware timeline before booking.
Maintenance
- Rinse regularly to remove leaves, pollen, and pool chemicals
- Sweep grit and debris that can wear the surface
- Use a mild cleaner and soft brush for stains
- Avoid harsh acids and strong solvents on the coating
- Address standing water and drainage issues so the deck can dry
Pricing Factors
Every project is unique. We provide pricing as ranges based on the specific factors below — see typical investment ranges for context.

- Condition of the concrete (cracks, spalling, prior coatings)
