Solution:
Concrete landscape products provide stunning results with minimal maintenance requirements for this country home’s backyard pool and patio.
The owners of this country home in Goshen, Indiana, made a big statement with their concrete paver pool deck and walkway. Built with County Materials’ concrete pavers and landscape units in a monochromatic palette, this backyard oasis includes a stunning pool deck with room for lounge chairs on one side and an intimate fire feature in an adjoining patio. Additionally, a winding concrete paver walkway connects the driveway and garage directly to the pool deck for safe and convenient access.
For the pool deck, the homeowners selected Grand XL DISCOVER PAVERS® in Vision with Sentinel Sealed TechnologyTM. These large format concrete pavers can streamline installation, and their clean lines contribute to the understated elegance of the design. Concrete pavers manufactured with Sentinel Sealed Technology feature a factory-applied penetrating primer and surface sealer that provides maximum stain resistance and guards against mud, dirt, grease, oil, red wine, and more.
To define the edge of the patio, the homeowners opted for a two-layer border made from two sizes of ELEMENTSTM PAVERS in contrasting colors. The variation in size and orientation of the border concrete pavers adds subtle visual interest without introducing new colors to the design.
A fire feature made from Smooth SUMMIT STONE® LANDSCAPE UNITS in Reflection provides a charming focal point for the outdoor living area to the side of the pool deck. Incorporating a fire feature into the design extends the patio season beyond the hottest months of the summer so the family can get more enjoyment from their investment.
Project Highlights:
County Materials’ durable concrete landscape products are well-suited to regions with harsh winters, providing long-lasting performance through freeze/thaw cycles. Sentinel Sealed Technology offers additional protection from stains, UV rays, and de-icing salts, and minimizes the maintenance needed to preserve the beautiful appearance of the pool deck and outdoor living area.
