Florida Bomanite Featured in Pool & Spa Marketing Magazine

Great decorative concrete does more than cover a surface. At FL Bomanite, we transform residential and commercial spaces with durable, visually appealing concrete solutions that enhance both style and performance.

That is why we are proud to share that Florida Bomanite has been featured in Pool & Spa Marketing magazine, with insights written by our very own Pablo Aviles Gonzalez Jr. The feature highlights the knowledge, care, and craftsmanship that go into creating decorative concrete surfaces built for beauty, durability, and everyday use.

For our team, this recognition means a lot. It reflects years of hands-on work, technical skill, and a shared commitment to helping property owners, designers, builders, and pool professionals bring better surfaces to life.

Paints, coatings, and surfaces should be carefully selected and tailored to the amenity types in which they are being implemented.

A proud moment for the Florida Bomanite team

Being featured in an industry publication is always meaningful, especially when the article connects directly to the work our team does every day.

Pool and spa environments create unique demands for concrete. These spaces need surfaces that can handle heat, moisture, foot traffic, design expectations, and long-term exposure to the elements. A pool deck or spa surround is not only a design choice. It is also a performance surface.

That is where experience matters.

Through the article, Pablo Aviles Gonzalez Jr. shares a perspective shaped by real project work and a deep understanding of decorative concrete systems. His contribution reflects the same standard Florida Bomanite brings to each job: careful planning, strong technical execution, and respect for the finished space.

This feature is also a moment to recognize the people behind the work. Decorative concrete requires craft at every stage, from surface preparation and mix selection to color, texture, installation, curing, and finishing. The final result should look seamless, but it takes skilled hands to make that happen.

Why decorative concrete matters around pools and spas

A pool area has to do several things well at once. It should look inviting. It should feel comfortable underfoot. It should support the design of the home or property. It should also be built with the realities of outdoor use in mind.

Decorative concrete gives designers and property owners a wide range of options. Depending on the project, it can create the look of natural stone, tile, pavers, or custom textures while keeping the strength and adaptability of concrete.

Common priorities for pool and spa surfaces include:

• Texture that supports comfort

  Pool decks need a finish that feels good to walk on and suits the way the space will be used.

  
  

• Design that fits the setting

  Color, pattern, and finish should work with the architecture, landscaping, waterline details, and outdoor features.

  
  

• Durability for outdoor conditions

  Surfaces near water need thoughtful material choices and installation methods.

  
  

• Clean transitions

  Pool coping, deck areas, steps, drains, and adjacent patios all need to feel connected.

  
  

The best decorative concrete work balances all of these needs. It looks designed, not improvised. It feels natural in the space, but it is backed by technical decisions that protect the quality of the installation.

Pablo Aviles Gonzalez Jr. brings project knowledge to the page

One of the best parts of this feature is seeing industry knowledge shared by someone who understands both the creative and practical sides of the work.

Pablo Aviles Gonzalez Jr. brings a field-informed point of view to the article. That kind of insight matters because decorative concrete is not a one-size-fits-all product. Every project brings its own mix of design goals, site conditions, weather considerations, substrate needs, and client expectations.

A beautiful finish starts long before the final surface is visible. It begins with questions such as:

• What will the surface be exposed to?

• How will people move through the space?

• What finish will support both safety and style?

• How should color and texture relate to the pool, home, and landscape?

• What preparation is needed before installation begins?

  
  

Those questions can shape the success of the project. They also show why expertise matters in decorative concrete. The visible surface is only part of the story. The planning, preparation, detailing, and execution are just as important.

The detail work in decorative concrete affects both appearance and everyday performance.

Recognition rooted in craftsmanship

Florida Bomanite has always placed value on craftsmanship. A decorative concrete surface should not feel like an afterthought. It should support the full design of the property and perform in the environment where it is installed.

That takes training, patience, and a strong understanding of materials. It also takes pride in details that many people may never notice directly, such as clean edges, consistent finish quality, thoughtful color placement, and transitions that feel intentional.

When a project is done well, the surface supports the experience of the entire space. Around a pool or spa, that can mean a resort-like feel, a natural outdoor atmosphere, a modern architectural look, or a relaxed family-friendly setting.

Being featured in Pool & Spa Marketing magazine gives our team a chance to share that approach with a wider industry audience. It also reinforces the value of high-quality decorative concrete in pool and spa design.

What this feature says about the future of decorative concrete

The residential and commercial concrete industry continues to place more attention on creating attractive, functional spaces. Homeowners, businesses, and property developers are looking for spaces that feel complete, not just functional. Builders and designers are also prioritizing materials that deliver lasting durability, visual appeal, and long-term performance.

Decorative concrete is well suited to that shift. It offers flexibility in design, strong surface performance, and the ability to create custom looks that fit a wide range of properties.

For Florida Bomanite, this feature is a reminder of why the work matters. Every project is a chance to turn a surface into something more lasting, more useful, and more connected to the space around it.

A milestone worth celebrating

We are grateful to see Florida Bomanite recognized in Pool & Spa Marketing magazine, and we are especially proud of Pablo Aviles Gonzalez Jr. for representing our team’s knowledge and commitment so well.

This moment belongs to everyone who contributes to the work, from planning and preparation to installation and finishing. It reflects the care behind every surface and the passion our team brings to decorative concrete.

Most of all, it reinforces what we believe every day: exceptional concrete work is built through skill, collaboration, and pride in the details.
