Get Your Pool Deck Summer-Ready: Fix Cracks, Unevenness and Ensure Long-lasting Beauty!

Summer is here, and it's time to prep your backyard oasis for fun in the sun! Before you inflate those pool toys and dust off the floats, take a look at your pool deck. Uneven surfaces, cracks, or signs of sinking can create tripping hazards and worsen over time.

Don't Replace, Repair!

You might consider replacing your entire pool deck, but there's a better solution: PolyLevel concrete lifting and leveling. This innovative technique from Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair offers several advantages:

• Faster and more affordable than complete pool deck replacement.
• Less disruptive to your landscaping compared to traditional methods.
• A longer-lasting solution by addressing the root cause of settling through stabilizing the underlying soil.

Understanding Concrete Issues

Concrete is a remarkable material, but it's not invincible. Cracks, sunken slabs, or uneven surfaces can occur due to various factors:

• Poorly Compacted Soil: Construction can leave the soil beneath your pool deck poorly compacted. Even compacted soil isn't as stable as undisturbed ground, leading to voids and settling over time.
• Dry Soil: Drought can cause the soil under your concrete to dry out and shrink, creating voids. The concrete above can then crack and sink into these empty spaces.
• Flooding: Heavy rain can worsen the situation by creating an easier pathway for water to reach the underlying soil through cracks. Saturated soil weakens and may even wash away completely, leaving voids that can't support the concrete weight.

Cracked Concrete and Long-Term Effects

Cracks allow moisture to seep beneath the concrete slab, potentially softening or washing away the underlying soil. This can lead to further cracking and sinking as the slab settles into the void.

To prevent moisture infiltration, it's crucial to seal both cracks and control joints (cut between slabs during pouring). While traditional polyurethane caulk is available, it's prone to cracking, bubbling, and drying out, requiring frequent resealing.
