Benefits of Concrete Pool Surrounds
A professionally installed concrete pool surround provides far more than a neat finish around your swimming pool. It creates a practical outdoor space that is built to handle constant foot traffic, changing weather conditions, and years of family enjoyment.
🛡️Durable and Long Lasting
Concrete is one of the most reliable materials for pool surrounds. When installed correctly with proper reinforcement and finishing, it resists cracking, movement, and everyday wear for many years.
🧹Low Maintenance
Unlike pavers that can move or become uneven over time, concrete creates a continuous surface that is easy to clean and requires very little ongoing maintenance.
🎨Wide Range of Decorative Finishes
Choose from plain concrete, coloured concrete, or exposed aggregate to achieve a style that complements your home, landscaping, and outdoor entertaining area.
👣Comfortable Around the Pool
We use quality concrete mixes and decorative aggregates that create a smooth, comfortable surface for walking barefoot while maintaining excellent durability.
✅Safe and Practical
A professionally finished pool surround provides a stable, level surface around your pool, reducing trip hazards and creating easier access for family and guests.

Our Pool Surround & Spa Slab Installation Process
We follow a proven installation process to ensure every pool surround and spa slab is built with precision, durability, and long-term performance in mind.
📍 Site Inspection & Planning
We assess your site, discuss your design ideas, confirm levels and drainage requirements, and recommend the most suitable concrete finish for your project.
🚜 Ground Preparation
The installation area is excavated and prepared to create a stable foundation. Proper base preparation helps minimise movement and supports the long-term performance of the concrete.
🏗️ Formwork & Reinforcement
We install accurate formwork and reinforcement to provide structural strength and achieve clean, consistent edges around your pool or spa area.
🚚 Concrete Placement
Premium concrete is carefully poured, levelled, and finished using professional techniques to achieve a durable, high-quality surface.
✨ Surface Finishing
Depending on your chosen finish, we complete the surface using plain concrete, coloured concrete, or exposed aggregate to achieve the appearance and texture you want.
💧 Curing & Final Inspection
The concrete is allowed to cure correctly to maximise strength and durability before we complete a final quality inspection, ensuring your new pool surround or spa slab is ready to provide years of reliable performance.
Built for Strength, Comfort & Long-Term Performance
Ready to turn your backyard into a premium summer entertaining zone? Whether you are dropping in a luxury outdoor swim spa or finishing off a brand-new inground pool layout, the foundation is the most critical part of the entire investment. Sinking ground, uneven edges, or cracked slabs can ruin thousands of dollars of landscaping.
At We Came to Concrete, we specialize in executing high-skill, articulate concrete pours for high-end backyard upgrades. From seamless, flush pool surrounds to heavy-duty structural pads, we don't guess the levels or scrimp on the engineering specs.
We get it done right from the ground up so your outdoor living zone looks pristine and stays completely secure for life.
Every outdoor summer project we run is built to our uncompromising trade standards:
Mandatory 150mm Thickness for Spa Slabs
A standard spa filled with water and people carries massive static weight.
A basic 100mm domestic concrete pad simply cannot handle that load over time. That is why we engineer every single spa slab we pour to a mandatory minimum uniform thickness of 150mm, reinforced heavily with structural steel mesh to guarantee your foundation never shifts, bows, or moves under pressure.
Sourced for Barefoot Summer Comfort
Your pool zone is built for bare feet. Cheap concrete operators use aggressive, jagged aggregates that make walking to the water agonizing.
For our decorative surrounds, we explicitly source premium Holcim mixes with tighter blends of smaller, rounded decorative stones.
This ensures you and your kids can walk completely comfortably from the water to the sun lounger entirely barefoot on a hot summer day.
Articulate Formwork for Seamless Pool Surrounds
Executing a seamless pool surround is an art form that completely depends on high-end carpentered formwork and precision levels.
We spend the extra time meticulously boxing out your pool edge framework. This guarantees the cured concrete finishes perfectly flush and seamless against your pool coping tile, eliminating ugly lips, hazardous trip points, or uneven drainage traps.

Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Pool Surrounds & Spa Slabs
How thick should a concrete spa slab be?
A concrete spa slab should be designed to safely support the combined weight of the spa, water, and occupants. In most cases, we recommend a reinforced 150mm thick concrete slab for portable spas and swim spas. The required thickness may vary depending on the spa model and site conditions, so we'll assess your project and recommend the most suitable solution.
What is the best concrete finish for pool surrounds?
The best finish depends on your style preferences and budget. Many homeowners choose exposed aggregate for its decorative appearance and textured surface, while others prefer coloured concrete or plain concrete for a clean, modern look. We'll help you select a finish that complements your home and outdoor entertaining area.
Can you install concrete around an existing swimming pool?
Yes. We regularly install concrete pool surrounds around existing swimming pools as well as new pool installations. Every project begins with a site assessment to ensure the new concrete integrates neatly with your existing pool and surrounding landscape.
How long before I can use my new pool surrounds or spa slab?
Concrete begins to harden quickly, but it needs time to cure properly. We'll provide clear guidance based on your project, including when it's safe to walk on the surface and when a spa can be installed or the surrounding area returned to normal use.
Are concrete pool surrounds slippery when wet?
Concrete can be finished with textures that improve grip around wet areas. Options such as exposed aggregate provide additional surface texture, while the finishing method used for plain or coloured concrete can also help improve traction. We'll recommend the most suitable finish for your pool area.
Do you install coloured concrete and exposed aggregate pool surrounds?
Yes. We install plain concrete, coloured concrete, and exposed aggregate pool surrounds, allowing you to choose a finish that matches your home's style, landscaping, and outdoor entertaining area.
Will my concrete pool surrounds require much maintenance?
Concrete pool surrounds are relatively low maintenance. Occasional cleaning and periodic resealing, where recommended, can help preserve their appearance and protect the surface from everyday wear and exposure to the elements.
