Rubber stone pool deck

[JaySee]

Hi All,

Our pool deck consists of artfully arranged pavers probably installed sometime in the 90s. It was maintained pretty well by the previous owners but it's starting to show a lot of wear, especially with loose chunks around the perimeter of the pool. We were thinking of refinishing the deck with rubber stone. Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with rubber stone installation and maintenance? I'm in Southern Ontario so I'd be most concerned about how it holds up in harsh winters.

Also-- ease of (professional) installation -- does it get laid directly over the old pavers? I've read that it can be poured over old interlock but I've yet to see a demo of that online.

Thanks!

Man that looks so neat! I don't think I have seen any builds that have used this so YOU can be the guinea pig!
