Reed Pool Contractors designs and installs pool decks and hardscape across Anaheim and Orange County. The deck is where your family actually spends the day around the pool, and on a generous local backyard it can be as much of the living space as the water itself. We build concrete, paver, and stone decks with proper drainage, slip-resistant finishes, and clean integration into the pool and the rest of the yard.

Deck and pool, designed together
A pool and its deck are a single connected space, not two jobs that happen to share a fence line. The deck decides how you move around the water, where you lounge and gather, and how the whole backyard feels to stand in. A beautiful pool ringed by a cramped or poorly poured deck never quite delivers on what it could have been.
Because we design and build both, we plan the deck and the pool together from the start. The coping, the deck material, the grade, and the drainage are all coordinated so the finished space works as a whole. That kind of integration is hard to get when the deck is bid out separately after the pool is already in the ground.
We design the deck around how your family will use the yard, whether that means broad lounging areas for an Orange County weekend, an outdoor kitchen, a fire feature, or a clean modern edge. The goal is a backyard that genuinely works, not a strip of concrete poured around the water as an afterthought.
Materials that take the daily abuse
Pool decks live a hard life: constant sun, splashing water, and bare feet all day through a long swim season. The material has to take all of that while staying comfortable and safe to walk on. We build in broom-finished and decorative concrete, pavers, and natural stone, and we help you choose based on the look you want, the grip, the heat underfoot, and your budget.
Slip resistance matters most right at the water's edge, so we specify finishes that stay grippy when wet. Heat matters just as much under the local sun, because some materials get genuinely uncomfortable on bare feet in summer, and we factor that into the recommendation rather than leaving you to find out in July.
Whatever the material, the quality of the install is what makes a deck last. Sound base prep, properly placed control joints, and careful finishing are what keep a deck from cracking, settling, or heaving as the seasons cycle.
Grading and drainage, the part you never see
The least visible part of a deck is the most important one: the grading and drainage underneath it. A deck that does not shed water properly leaves standing puddles, invites staining, and lets water work its way under the slab where it causes settling and cracking over time.
We grade every deck to drain away from the pool and the house, set drains where the layout needs them, and build the base so the deck stays level and sound for the long haul. It is unglamorous work, and it is exactly what separates a deck that lasts from one that fails a few seasons in regardless of how good it looked on day one.

One crew for the whole pool construction
A pool is a design-build project, so pool deck installation rarely stands alone, it connects to pool design and build, pool renovations, a pool redesign, resurfacing the shell, pool equipment installation, and our crew handles all of it as one accountable team. We bring the same service to Pool Deck Installation in Fullerton, Orange pool deck installation, Pool Deck Installation in Garden Grove, Buena Park pool deck installation and everywhere else across the Anaheim area.
