Pool Coping Replacement in Highland Park

Travertine, natural stone, and custom-profile coping replacement for Highland Park and University Park pools.

Coping problems on a Highland Park pool show up the same way they do anywhere: stones that have cracked, an edge that has lifted at the corners, sections that have shifted out of line, and gaps opening between the cap and the deck. Once water gets under the coping it heads for the bond beam, and that repair costs far more than the cap. The difference in the Park Cities is the finish standard. The new edge has to tie into the deck, the patio, and the architecture of the home, not just sit there level.

We have replaced coping across Dallas for over two decades, and we have torn out plenty of jobs from contractors who did not hit the level the work needs. A common Park Cities scope is pulling 20 or 30-year-old concrete coping and replacing it with travertine or natural limestone. The cool-underfoot gain alone is worth it in a Dallas summer, but the bigger win is the look. Premium coping pulls a dated pool into the current decade without touching anything else. Many of these projects run through a designer, and we work from their specs and document the detailing so every trade stays aligned.

We lift the old cap without tearing up the tile or deck below, clean the bond beam, and set new coping level and true. The detail that decides whether it lasts is the expansion joint between the cap and the deck plus flexible bonding behind the stone, the piece most older installs left out. We put it back to PHTA standards. Travertine and natural limestone are the usual choices here, with custom-profile work for unique shapes. Baseline travertine runs about $20 to $35 per linear foot installed, so a typical pool lands around $2,000 to $5,000, with premium stone and complex shapes higher. Most jobs take 4 to 7 days.
