Yes, we do swimming pool structural repair when the leak occurs in the shell of the pool (in a pool wall or floor). This is typically called a structural crack. We do it a lot, and just like any leak, the sooner you repair it, the better. We’ve seen entire pools settle several inches due to a leak that wasn’t taken care of.
We also recommend doing a pressure test when evaluating a structural crack. Often times a crack is a symptom of a plumbing problem or leak.
A good rule of thumb to follow:
If the crack occurs in a plaster pool, you’ll likely need to resurface the interior of the pool. If the crack occurs in a pebble pool, we can often repair it and patch the pebble surface. Either way, if the crack occurs in the wall or floor, we can very likely repair it.
A question you should ask when considering repairing a leak is “HOW do you repair my leak?” We use a state-of-the-art epoxy injection method. Until something else is invented, this is the best solution for all but the most serious. When required, we can also completely remove the cracked portion of your pool wall, replace the “re-bar” and re-shotcrete that section of the pool.
Obviously, we can answer all your questions once we see the actual crack. Call 480-539-7700.
