Pool Coping: The Edge That Defines Your Pool

Pool coping is the stonework surrounding the edge of your pool which creates the transition between the pool and the decking. Changing outdated coping can completely transform the pool. We want to help homeowners choose coping that complements their tile, decking, and overall vision for the renovation. Depending on the style you are trying to create several coping options exist. Lueders, Oklahoma flagstone and Travetine are among the most popular selections.

Popular Coping Materials

Natural stone can create a high-end timeless appearance that will last for years to come.

  • Lueders limestone
  • Oklahoma flagstone
  • Travertine

One of the biggest mistakes people make in the pool remodel process is to redo the plaster and the tile and leave older coping. An out-of-date coping can make your pool like dated even though your plaster finish is brand new. Coping really is the “cherry on top”. A nice stone around the pool can elevate the project completely. From waterline to deck, every detail matters.

The Edge That Changes Everything.

"First experience: Installed a salt system and couldn't ask for a better result or performance from a vendor of any type. Excellent experience. Prompt, professional, informative .. all you'd like to see.

Most Recent: Installed a handrail to help get out of the pool (made necessary by auto accident). Don't believe the 'ease of installation' you'll see on the internet. This one is going to last forever. Have to commend Dallas Dodson for the folks that work with him; extremely professional and capable."
