Does anyone have any experience with QuartzCarpet? It’s a treatment to resurface pool decks. I have 24-year old exposed aggregate deck and plaster pool (second owner of house). I’m not sure we are ready to bite the cost of new deck and pool re-plaster. My local company says the plaster looks to be in good shape. We are considering some sort of surface treatment for the deck and a local company does the job. We are getting a quote next week.

Looks interesting...
Wonder what the warranty is and how hot it would get beating in the sun all day?

It’s basically like an epoxy garage floor coating. I don’t know about NH summers but I sincerely doubt it would last one season here in the AZ heat and sun.

Only thing you can do with these types of “new” products is get a list of recent references where you can see the product in place and ask the people that are living with it how it has worked for them. Then get the exact warranty terms, conditions, and exclusions. Find out who makes the product, who is responsible for the warranty and how are their installers trained and licensed.

If you’re still comfortable after getting all that info, then go for it. Otherwise walk away and go a more traditional route.

Quartz Carpet is a division of Sidec, a formulator, manufacturer, and supplier of products for resin bonded aggregate surfacing.

Looks like typical epoxy rock surfacing.

It is basically aggregate with some sort of glue like epoxy, Polyurethane or some type of resin.

It can be slippery if you have a lot of resin or the rocks will fall out if you don't have a lot of resin.

Obviously there are potential issues with any product like this. That’s why I was asking for any direct experience. We had the quote and consult this week and are going to go look at it installed at one of their customer’s pools. Quality and warranty look good and it appears to be easily repairable.

I’ve seen the YouTube product videos.

Thanks, that’s why I asked here. I was looking for any direct experience. We are doing all of the above while researching. The “more traditional” method as far as I can tell is to demo and replace the pool deck. That’s looking to be cost prohibitive at this point. Thanks for the input.

I’ll post details once I get more info. At this point it appears to be a viable option for my pool deck. We are waiting to see it installed on someone’s pool and hear what they say about it.
