ag pool deck

[Watermom]

My deck is right above and even with the top rail of my pool, but it does not sit on the rail. There is space between the rail and the decking boards for some 2x4s. The decking boards are screwed into the 2x4s. The 2x4s keep the ends of the decking boards from 'giving' when you step on the edge. We did it this way because I like the look of the deck flush with the edge of the pool and because I don't particularly like the way the top rails on an AG look. Then, when we close the pool, we can remove the 2x4s and easily put the cover on.
