Pool cracks can happen for a number of reasons. The ground around the pool can shift, the pool can shift, there could be a structural issue, your pool could have an issue called ASR (alkali silica reaction) or numerous other reasons.

The first main type of crack repair is an underwater repair.. This means that we can repair cracks while the pool is filled up using underwater two-part epoxy, but this is reserved for minor cracks less than 1/8" of an inch wide and the epoxy is just to cover up the crack and seal it up, not provide any structural strength at all. This is good for sealing up cracks to help stop water loss.

The second type of crack repair is above water. This is where we can use different methods to repair a crack in your pool depending on the location and severity of the crack. We can use epoxy for minor cracks, carbon fiber stitches and metal staples for larger cracks that need structural support as well as other methods.
