Servicing Newcastle 2300 and the surrounding Newcastle & Hunter. Non-slip spray-crete around the pool and coping. Cool underfoot, chlorine tolerant, and no more lifting or cracked pavers.
Between Newcastle and the rest of Newcastle & Hunter we see the same slab problems repeatedly — and the fix is always in the preparation, not the product.
Pool surrounds take the worst of it — chlorine, salt, UV, bare feet and constant wetting. We resurface the whole area in a light-toned spray-crete with a fine broadcast texture, carried neatly up to the coping and around the edges of the shell.
Light colours matter here: a pale sandstone or beige stays noticeably cooler underfoot than dark concrete in February. The finish is rated for wet-area slip resistance and it will not lift the way pavers do when the ground moves.

In a light colour, yes — that is why we steer people away from charcoal around a pool. A pale sandstone or beige is dramatically cooler underfoot than dark concrete in summer.
No. The sealer we use around pools is specified for chlorinated and salt water. What does damage a surround is acid washing, so keep acids off it.
Yes, we detail the coping and step edges by hand so the finish terminates cleanly rather than stopping in a straight line across the paving.
