Patio Dock Resurfacing with Rubberkoat

Turn Your Patio Dock into a Designer Space

A concrete patio dock is a staple of waterfront living in Cape Coral — but plain concrete can look unfinished and may become slippery, cracked, or sun-faded. Whether the surface is showing signs of wear or simply needs a visual upgrade, RubberKoat concrete resurfacing with Concrete Craft of SWFL offers a safe, stylish solution. This rubber overlay improves traction, stays cooler underfoot, and gives your patio dock the polished, designer look it should’ve had from the start.

What Is A Patio Dock?

A patio dock is the concrete surface alongside your seawall — the space where you relax by the water, place outdoor furniture, or access your boat lift. Whether it’s brand new or weathered from years of use, RubberKoat resurfacing gives it a finished, designer look while improving safety and comfort underfoot.

The Challenge: A Bare Concrete Patio Dock That Needed More

The homeowner had a classic concrete patio dock — functional, but uninspired. The surface was plain and lacked any kind of visual connection to the rest of the outdoor space. Like many canal-front properties in Cape Coral, the dock patio was basic…but we turned it into a show stopper!

What Is RubberKoat — And Why Use It For Concrete Patio Docks?

RubberKoat is a flexible, slip-resistant overlay designed for concrete surfaces exposed to harsh outdoor conditions. Unlike paint or tile, RubberKoat bonds directly to existing concrete and flexes with minor ground movement. It resists UV damage, saltwater exposure, and heat buildup — making it perfect for patio docks near the water. It also allows for a wide range of color and texture options, so homeowners can create a look that enhances their space rather than just covering it.

Prep Work: Cleaning and Surface Readiness

Before any resurfacing begins, the existing concrete is cleaned thoroughly. This includes pressure washing to remove grime and degreasing where needed. Surface preparation ensures the RubberKoat bonds properly and results in a smooth, lasting finish. This step is critical. We also make minor surface repairs as needed — filling hairline cracks and smoothing inconsistencies — to ensure a seamless and flawless final finish.

Application Day: Bringing the Design to Life

With the surface prepped, our team applied the RubberKoat system. The chosen color was a soft neutral tone that complemented the home’s exterior, with a lightly textured finish for both comfort and slip resistance. The client wanted something that felt modern but wouldn’t compete with the natural view — and the finished surface delivered.

The Finished Patio Dock:
A Stunning Upgrade with Lasting Value

The new surface immediately changed the look and feel of the backyard. What was once a hot, bare slab of concrete is now a comfortable, styled space that feels like an intentional part of the home. It’s slip-resistant, cool underfoot, and durable enough to handle sun, salt air, and heavy foot traffic year-round.

Why RubberKoat Works So Well for A Waterfront Patio Dock

RubberKoat concrete overlay isn’t just another decorative coating — it’s built for real-life use in outdoor waterfront settings. Here’s why it’s such a smart choice for dock patios:

  • UV Resistant: It won’t peel, fade, or degrade under constant sun exposure.

  • Slip-Resistant When Wet: Rubberkoat concrete overlay provides safe footing, even when surfaces are damp or wet.

  • Cooler Than Concrete: It stays significantly cooler underfoot than bare concrete, making it more comfortable for barefoot traffic.

  • Engineered for Harsh Conditions: Rubberkoat concrete dock patio resurfacing holds up against salt air, water exposure, and heavy foot traffic without breaking down.

  • A High-End Designer Finish: RubberKoat delivers a sleek, custom look that blends beautifully with coastal homes and enhances the overall feel of the space.

It’s the perfect combination of performance and style — giving homeowners a dock patio that’s safer, more comfortable, and finished to match the quality of the rest of their outdoor space.
