Resurfacing an existing concrete deck with an overlay or coating in Montana typically runs $4,500–$13,000; a new deck depends on the material and the square footage:
| Job | Typical Montana price |
|---|---|
| Deck resurfacing (overlay, spray texture, coating) | $4,500–$13,000 |
| New broom-finish or stamped concrete | $6,600–$16,500 for 600 sq ft |
| Concrete pavers | $13–$28 / sq ft |
| Travertine or natural stone | $17–$35 / sq ft |
| Crack, lift and drainage repair | $600–$2,800 |
| Sealing an existing deck | $325–$950 |
| Pergola or shade structure | $3,500–$13,000 |
| Outdoor kitchen | $9,000–$33,000+ |
Montana pricing is above the national baseline used for these estimates, mainly on labor and permitting. Demolition of the old deck, grading and drainage, the coping tie-in and access for equipment are the line items that move a quote; a deck that slopes toward the pool or holds water needs the drainage fixed before any surface goes on.
Conduit for lighting, a gas stub for a kitchen or fire feature and footings for shade cost little while the deck is open and a lot afterwards.

Rocky ground and river cobble make excavation the wildcard — get rock language in writing — and frost-depth plumbing plus robust winterization design are standard. Bozeman-area builds often pair pools with significant landscape and terrace work. Fiberglass and vinyl fit the install window; heated pools with automatic covers and mountain-facing terraces define the look. Integrated hot tubs are practically standard.
The largest listed markets are Missoula (3 companies).
Look at decks the contractor finished several years ago, not just new ones — settling, heaving and joint failure take a few seasons to show. Confirm licensing where Montana requires it and insurance, and get drainage, base preparation and the coping joint spelled out in the contract. Montana registers construction contractors at the state level — verify registration and insurance. Pool permits and residential-code barrier requirements run through your city or county building office; resort-town design review boards can add a step in places like Big Sky and Whitefish.
Resurfacing an existing concrete deck in Montana, MT typically runs $4,500–$13,000. New concrete runs $6,600–$16,500 for 600 sq ft, pavers $13–$28 / sq ft and travertine $17–$35 / sq ft installed. Crack and drainage repairs run $600–$2,800 and sealing $325–$950. Montana pricing is above the national baseline used for these estimates, mainly on labor and permitting; demolition, grading and the coping tie-in move the number most, so compare itemized bids for the same square footage.
Yes, if the slab is structurally sound: no major heaving, wide moving cracks or drainage toward the pool. Spray-texture and stamped overlays bond to the old concrete and add a cooler, slip-resistant surface for a fraction of a new deck. A slab that pumps water toward the pool, has sunk at the coping or is badly cracked should be removed and rebuilt with proper base and drainage.
Light-colored travertine and honed natural stone stay the coolest, followed by light concrete pavers and textured overlays with a light acrylic coating; dark stone, dark pavers and plain broom-finish concrete get the hottest. In sunny climates ask to stand on wet samples on a hot afternoon before choosing.
Resurfacing an existing deck usually takes two to five days including prep and cure; a new poured-concrete deck one to two weeks with forming, pour, cure and sealing; pavers and travertine one to three weeks depending on the base work and cutting around the coping. Add time for kitchens, shade structures and any permit inspections.
The outdoor season in Montana runs mid-June through early September — about 3 months unheated. A full professional winterization each fall protects plumbing and equipment through the freeze, and spring openings cluster into the same few weeks. The unheated season runs mid-June through early September, with cool nights even in July. A heater materially extends use, and winters are long and hard-freezing statewide.

Often for the parts that involve electrical, gas, structures or drainage changes — a kitchen, fire feature, pergola or a deck that changes grading — and always if the barrier or fence is affected. Concrete resurfacing rarely needs one. Montana registers construction contractors at the state level — verify registration and insurance. Pool permits and residential-code barrier requirements run through your city or county building office; resort-town design review boards can add a step in places like Big Sky and Whitefish.
Control joints spaced correctly, a compacted base, proper slope and a maintained expansion joint at the coping do most of the work. Seal concrete every two to three years, keep sprinklers off the deck, and fix drainage that lets water under the slab — freeze-thaw and washed-out base are what lift and crack decks.
