Why Choose Natural Stone Pool Coping?

Unlike other pool coping materials, natural stone coping is a great choice for the pool’s surroundings. Here is why:

Authentic Beauty

Each natural coping piece features a unique veining, texture, and color variation. They create a natural and upscale look that blends seamlessly into outdoor environments.

Cool To Touch

Natural stone coping materials like marble coping, travertine coping, limestone coping, and sandstone coping remain cooler under direct sunlight than concrete. This makes them comfortable for bare feet around the pool.

Long-Term Durability

Coping not only completes the visual look, but it can also be used as a protective cap for your pool shell. This reduces the tile damage and enhances structural integrity.

Anti-Slip Properties

Textured finishes and natural porosity help prevent slips, especially in wet conditions. It is ideal for family pools and spa surrounds.

Versatile Edge Profiles

You can find the natural stone coping in versatile edge profiles, from bullnose pool coping to drop face pool coping, eased edge pool coping to rock face pool coping. You can choose coping styles that reflect your design taste and meet safety needs.

Care Tips for Natural Stone Coping

Natural stone coping can last longer with proper care. Due to its delicate nature and porous surface, it requires sealing. Once the stone is sealed, you can increase its longevity. But more importantly, secure its surface from scratches, fading, and chipping. Here are some more tips to follow:

  • Clean regularly with pH-neutral, non-acidic stone cleaners.
  • Avoid vinegar, bleach, or acidic solutions that may etch the surface.
  • Rinse the coping after pool use to remove chlorine or salt residue.
  • Sealing is crucial. Regularly sealing after 12–24 months with a breathable, penetrating stone sealer can increase its lifespan.
  • Use soft brushes or mops and avoid abrasive pads or wire tools.
  • Limit pressure washing to under 1500 PSI to prevent surface damage.
  • Remove algae or mildew with diluted bleach (1:10 ratio) if required.
  • Ensure proper drainage during installation to prevent standing water
  • Perform an annual check for cracks, loose stones, or grout wear
