The Peer Support workforce works from the perspective of their lived experience with mental health, substance use challenges, trauma, and their own personal recovery and wellness journeys to assist in educating others about the reality of success, hopes, and dreams and the multiple pathways to recovery.
Solid penetrating stains or semi-solid stains with an opaque color are the best to protect pool decks. You can apply sealer with a brush, roller or a mop on larger deck surfaces. Use a paintbrush for smaller areas such as railings and the wood edge next to the pool. Push the sealer between gaps on all boards to coat the sides and prevent wood rotting in the joints.
Tape large sheets of bubble wrap to the inside edge of the pool to keep the pool clean and free of debris. Also cover landscape plants or areas of the house where the old patio abuts the house structure or plants. You can use a shot blaster or a scarifier to clean and sand old or damaged concrete pool decks.
