    fixing underside of pool deck

    Yes, I see your point. I don't have too much experience with the different products so that is why I ask so many questions. I do have enough experience to know that these many products behave slightly different. I am going to start keeping the water level a little lower, that combined with...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    ok, I wasnt sure because I see these kinds of epoxy where you have the two elements and they get mixed when you are using them https://www.homedepot.com/p/PC-Products-PC-Concrete-9-oz-Epoxy-072561/100653148 That is more what I associate with a really strong fix.

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Issue 1 The water is not usually that high, it was from right after the rain. However, see side note below. Issue 2 Part of my problem is they have so many that seem to be similar. Which one of these three would you be referring to? 1...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Ok, so I will summarize this thread and keep it in one I have two issues with my pool deck, which is a cantilevered deck. Issue 1 - Underside of deck has a few points deteriorating. Recommendations so far: Use something to slow the deterioration and later down the road a section or the whole...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Sorry, I probably should have created two threads because the part that duraleigh is talking about is a bit different issue.

    fixing underside of pool deck

    ajw22 , I also looked at some epoxy fillers at home depot as well. It is just that in a few spots it looks like it might need a bit more than just epoxy filler.

    fixing underside of pool deck

    I am planning to apply it on the underside of a cantilevered concrete deck. If you look at picture 1,2,3 of the first post you can see what I am trying to repair. I am more trying to protect the edge from further deterioration and since it is on the underside it wont be that noticeable. I...

    Do you guys think this stuff would work well to patch the underside of the deck? https://photos.app.goo.gl/DeVchFkzjjr4E43M8

    fixing underside of pool deck

    I see those pics are not real helpful when I look at them. The first pic, with the boards and rocks in the middle is the one where you can see the two expansion joints on either side. The upper left hand corner (out of the picture) is where the lifted corner section is. The other pictures...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Ok, took some pics. I am not sure if you can tell from these pics but the section that has lifted by the pool actually doesnt have any cracks in it. However, it does have an expansion joint on either side so I am thinking it must have sunk at the other end and pushed the end by the pool up...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    There is actually not any cracking in that section that I remember. I will have a look and take a picture tonight. I have had a leak fixed in that area and it appears the previous owner did as well in another spot near there. When I get home I will snap a few other pics of the top of the...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Yes, most definitely a cantilevered deck based on that thread. 1. I have some cracks in the top side of the deck as well but not too bad. 2. The white line is probably something they put in there to hold out the water between the deck and pool top. As AJw22 posted the link to the other...

    fixing underside of pool deck

    Not sure where to put this but I am having some deterioration on the underside of my pool deck. I am not sure if I should use some no sag sealant here or some waterstop cement or something else. I also have a gap where an earthquake lifted the corner of the pool deck. Does anyone have a...

    pool lights not fixed solid to the side

    I suppose that makes sense. You have to be able to change the bulbs somehow. I am just curious how it all works without having an electrical fiasco lighting YOU up instead of the light bulb. I can understand about pulling it out but does it have some kind of socket that it plugs in to that is...

    pool lights not fixed solid to the side

    As a new pool owner i thought my pool lights would be fixed solid to the side. Meaning, I didn' think you would be able to move them at all. They would be sealed and in tight. However, when i fiddle with my lights they move side to side and I can pull them out a bit. Is this normal behavior...

    testing for leak in pool

    In the bucket test the pool did go farther down from my line than the bucket did. However, I did not check the inches. I plan to do it again tomorrow or the next day and this time I will measure the amount of water in the bucket in inches. Here is what I have been recording so far. 4/10/17...

    testing for leak in pool

    I believe I have a slow leak in my pool because I have been losing at least 1/4" of water a day and it has not been very hot. I did a bucket test and plan to do one again soon. right now I am letting the water level drop below the skimmers and just using the pool main drains ( I have tow ) to...
