Patios & Decks in North Carolina
Pool decks, paver patios, and natural-stone surrounds.
The deck around your pool sets the tone for the entire backyard. Craft Master installs concrete, paver, travertine, and natural stone pool decks and patios — properly graded for drainage, properly base-prepared for NC's red-clay soil, and properly jointed to handle freeze-thaw without lifting.
We install pool decks, paver patios, walkways, fire-feature pads, and outdoor kitchen surrounds as part of a pool project or as a standalone hardscape build. Material choice, joint pattern, edge details, and step transitions are all part of the design — not afterthoughts.
Travertine and porcelain pavers stay cool underfoot — important next to a sun-exposed pool. Pavers can be lifted and reset if utilities ever need work; concrete is more permanent but seamless.
Every deck starts with excavation to subgrade, geotextile fabric where soil conditions call for it, and engineered base courses compacted in lifts. Pavers are screeded to a precise tolerance and edge-restrained; concrete is poured with proper joint placement before it cures. Every project is permitted through the appropriate local jurisdiction, and we manage submission, plan review, and inspection scheduling as part of the build.
Why Homeowners Choose Craft Master for Patios & Decks
Engineered Base Preparation
Properly compacted, properly graded base under every paver and slab — the only thing that prevents settling and lifting in NC clay soil.
Multiple Material Options
Stamped concrete, pavers, travertine, natural stone, and porcelain pavers — each with a different look, feel, and price point.
Coordinated Pool Coping
Deck, coping, and waterline tile are designed together so they read as one finished surface.
Drainage Built In
Positive slope, channel drains, and permeable joints handle NC storm bursts — water moves away from the pool and house, not toward them.
Freeze-Thaw Joints
Control joints, expansion joints, and edge details are placed where the deck will move so it cracks where you want, not where you don't.
Step-Downs & Seat Walls
Integrated steps, seat walls, planters, and fire features turn a flat deck into a complete outdoor room.
