Combine comfort, safety and style in your poolside space with a rubber pool deck from Softroc. Our surfaces stay cool underfoot so you don’t have to hunt for your shoes when lounging poolside or after a swim. Whether you’re refreshing your existing pool area or designing a new space, a Softroc rubber pool deck creates an inviting environment that’s ideal for summertime rest and relaxation. Let’s look at rubber pool deck pros and cons so you can make a well-informed decision.

Safety & Comfort

Your pool deck should provide a comfortable walking surface while boosting the overall safety of your outdoor space. Rubber pool decking achieves this by resisting slipping, absorbing shock and creating a soft, comfortable texture that feels as good as it looks.

Slip Resistance

Wet surfaces around your pool pose significant safety risks you can mitigate easily with nonslip pool deck surfaces like Softroc’s rubber. Designed to perform as the best nonslip pool deck, our options reduce slip-and-fall risks with textured surfaces that keep your feet stable, even when you’re soaking wet from a swim. A rubber nonslip pool deck ensures safer poolside movement for children, adults and the elderly, enabling your whole family to enjoy worry-free summer fun.

Shock Absorption

Accidental trips and falls often happen around pools, but our rubber pool decking helps absorb the impact, decreasing the risk of injuries. These shock-absorbing qualities give you added protection and safety. By reducing the impact of falls, you can feel more confident having mobility-challenged family members over for cookouts and a swim or letting your kids invite their friends for pool parties.

Soft, Comfortable Texture

When you want comfort underfoot, nothing beats the feel of rubber pool decking by Softroc. This forgiving surface has a cushioned texture for a more enjoyable experience before and after swims. Unlike hard materials like concrete and tile, our rubber surfaces feel cozy on your toes when you’re walking around the pool or getting up from your lounger for a fresh drink.

Temperature Regulation

Pool decks often become uncomfortable to walk on when summer temperatures hit their peak, which is typically when you want to dive in and enjoy a swim. Softroc solves this problem with rubber pool decking that stays cool to the touch compared to other materials. A pool deck that’s heat-resistant feels good on bare feet, even in warmer climates, making your space more inviting.

Aesthetics

Rubber pool decks offer more than mere function — they also contribute to the overall visual appeal of your outdoor space. With a range of design options, Softroc rubber pool decking can easily complement and enhance your home and backyard pool with colors and styles that suit your specific preferences.

Customization Options

Color and Design Variety

From natural tones to bold, eye-catching hues, our rubber pool decks can accommodate every taste and preference. The flexibility in personalization makes our rubber pool decks the ideal choice when complementary aesthetics matter.

Durability

Pool decks endure constant use and exposure to water, UV rays and changing temperatures. Rubber decking from Softroc offers a robust solution designed to withstand these challenges without missing a beat. This durability extends the lifespan of your poolside investment and keeps the area looking great.

Resistance to Wear and Tear

Rubber’s inherent flexibility and resilience help it resist cracking, chipping and peeling. This durability ensures your pool deck maintains its excellent condition, even in high-traffic spaces or harsh weather conditions.

Withstands Heavy Foot Traffic

Whether you host frequent poolside gatherings or just enjoy daily use by your family, a rubber pool deck from Softroc handles heavy foot traffic without losing its structural integrity. This reliability makes rubber the best pool decking material when you need a practical option for busy households or commercial pool areas.

Low Maintenance

Turn to Softroc’s rubber materials when you want a low-maintenance pool deck. Rubber pool decking requires only minimal maintenance, saving you time and effort when it’s time to clean — a simple rinse with a hose or occasional light scrub removes surface dirt and debris effectively. In addition, Softroc offers deep cleaning and resealing services for increased durability, rejuvenation, and longevity. Our antimicrobial rubber also resists mold, fungus and staining to keep your poolside space clean and hygienic.
