What would it take to repair these cracks?

[poool]

This was my first season with a pool, and I noticed some cracks forming around the walkway:



and also under it where it meets these tiles:



The pool is closed now, so I'm researching for next year. What would be involved in repairing these? I'm hoping the walkway can be patched? Does this joint between the tiles and deck have a name, and can that be filled?

Thanks for the help!

Cracking is what concrete does. Control joints are put on large slabs of concrete to create a weak spot for the cracks to form. Your large slabs should have had more control joints to focus the cracking in those areas.

Small spider cracks like you have are best left alone. No repair will look better then the way it is now.

It looks like you have a cantilevered deck. Read Expansion Joints and Coping - Further Reading

The gap you have was covered with a plastic strip. It looks like grout was put under the plastic strip and has worn away. You need to keep the gap. You can try and replace the plastic strip and grout below it however it will be difficult to get it looking good.

Do not couple the deck to the bond beam with any solid materials.

Any repair to the cracks in the decking would be far more noticeable than the cracks themselves.
