Pool Deck Drainage That Works the Way It Should
Without proper drainage, water can collect on pool decks and surrounding areas. Over time, this can lead to surface cracking, material damage, and increased safety risks. A properly designed deck drain system helps move water away from the pool area and prevents buildup.
Deck drainage can also help manage runoff from gutters or landscaping, particularly on properties where water does not naturally drain away from the pool.

Our Deck Drainage Process
Assessment & Planning
We begin with an on-site assessment to evaluate deck layout, elevation, water flow, and surrounding conditions. This allows us to determine the most effective drainage approach for your pool area.
Drain Design & Selection
Based on the assessment, we recommend appropriate drain sizing and layout. Standard deck drains are typically 2 inches wide, but larger sizes may be recommended depending on water volume and site conditions. Drain systems are available in multiple colors to blend with your deck and landscape.
Professional Installation
Once the plan is approved, our certified technicians complete the installation according to best practices and product guidelines. Our goal is long-term performance with minimal disruption to your pool area.
Warranty & Manufacturer Support
All products sold by GPS Pool Store include manufacturer warranties designed to help protect your investment. Our team is familiar with manufacturer warranty requirements and recommended maintenance guidelines, and when you purchase through us, we’ll help you understand how to properly care for your equipment to support continued warranty coverage.
Additional warranty support may include:
- Manufacturer warranty coverage on eligible products
- In-store extended warranty options for select equipment
- In-store warranties that are often longer than warranties purchased online
