You get a pool deck that doesn’t turn into a slip hazard every time someone gets out of the water. The right pavers with proper drainage mean you can actually walk around your pool without worrying about accidents.
No more water pooling where it shouldn’t. No more slippery surfaces that make you nervous every time the kids are playing. Just a functional outdoor space that works the way it should.
Your pool becomes the centerpiece it was meant to be, not a liability you have to manage. Safe footing, proper water flow, and surfaces that can handle whatever Long Island weather throws at them.
We’ve been handling masonry projects in Suffolk and Nassau Counties since 2003. We understand what Sagaponack’s sandy soil and coastal climate do to pool areas.
The salt air, the drainage issues, the permitting requirements – we’ve dealt with all of it. Our team knows how to build pool patios that last in these conditions.
Bobby Bruno and Sherwood Adams founded Ageless Chimney to solve problems that other contractors either don’t understand or don’t want to tackle properly. When your pool deck needs to work right the first time, that experience matters.
First, we assess your specific drainage challenges and soil conditions. Sagaponack’s sandy soil and high water table require different approaches than other areas of Long Island.
We prepare a proper base that accounts for water flow and prevents settling. This isn’t just laying pavers on sand – it’s engineering a system that handles coastal conditions.
Then we install pavers with the right spacing and slope for drainage. Every joint gets filled properly to prevent shifting, and we make sure water flows where it should instead of pooling around your pool.

Non-slip surfaces that actually work when wet. We use materials and textures that provide traction without being rough on bare feet.
Proper drainage that meets New York State requirements. Your deck slopes correctly, drains are positioned right, and water flows away from your pool and foundation.
Materials that handle Sagaponack’s coastal environment. UV-resistant pavers that won’t fade, surfaces that resist salt air damage, and installation methods that account for your local soil conditions. Everything meets local permitting requirements and safety codes.
Non-slip pool pavers have textured surfaces that provide traction even when wet. Unlike smooth concrete or tile, quality pavers are designed with grip patterns that work when people are walking around with wet feet.
The key is choosing pavers specifically rated for pool areas and having them installed with proper drainage. Water that doesn’t pool on the surface can’t create slip hazards.
Materials like travertine and textured concrete pavers naturally provide better footing than alternatives. They’re also cooler underfoot during hot Sagaponack summers, which means people are less likely to rush across hot surfaces and lose their footing.
Sagaponack’s sandy soil and high water table create unique drainage challenges that require specific solutions. We start with proper base preparation that accounts for water movement through sand.
The deck gets sloped at least one-fourth inch per foot toward drainage points, meeting New York State requirements. We position drains so no more than 400 square feet drains to each point, and space them properly for your specific layout.
For coastal areas like Sagaponack, we also account for additional water from salt air and higher humidity. The drainage system handles not just pool splash but also the extra moisture that comes with being near the ocean.
Quality pool pavers need minimal maintenance, but Long Island’s coastal conditions do require some attention. Salt air can affect certain materials over time, so we choose pavers that resist this type of damage.
Sealing may be recommended for some paver types, but we use sealers specifically designed for pool areas that won’t create slippery surfaces. The goal is protection without compromising safety.
Regular cleaning with appropriate products keeps pavers looking good and functioning properly. Individual pavers can be replaced if damaged, which makes maintenance much simpler than dealing with cracked concrete pool decks.
Pool deck modifications in Sagaponack fall under Southampton Town Building Department jurisdiction. Requirements include adherence to setback rules and pool barrier regulations.
The work must comply with New York State health and safety codes, including proper drainage specifications. If you’re modifying existing pool areas, electrical bonding inspections may be required.
We handle the permitting process and ensure all work meets local requirements. This includes drainage plans that satisfy both town regulations and state standards for pool deck construction.
Properly installed pool pavers in coastal areas typically last 20-30 years or more. The key factors are choosing materials that resist salt air damage and installing them with proper drainage.
Sagaponack’s sandy soil actually helps with longevity because it drains well naturally. The challenge is handling the salt air and UV exposure from being near the ocean.
We use materials rated for coastal conditions and installation methods that account for your local environment. Quality pavers with proper base preparation and drainage will outlast most other pool deck options in these conditions.
Yes, pavers are an excellent solution for replacing failed concrete pool decks. We can remove the old surface and install a proper paver system that addresses the original drainage or settling problems.
This is often more cost-effective than trying to repair extensive concrete cracking. Pavers also give you better long-term flexibility – individual units can be replaced if needed without redoing the entire deck.
The new installation includes proper base preparation and drainage improvements. This solves the underlying issues that caused the original concrete to fail while giving you a safer, more attractive pool area.
