There are experts here, in pool chemistry, in pump & filter operation, and so on.
Pool deck repairs in YOUR area? Not so much.
Your problem is that such repairs tend to be somewhat local in nature. Those who've done such repairs aren't sure what they don't know about your pool, but they're sure it's a lot, and they know enough to know that such things matter. As a result, the more knowledgeable they are, the more reluctant they'll be to say much. You'd have to provide specific location information AND photos (post them on Picasa, Photobucket, or some such, and link to them), before someone knowledgeable might be willing to speak up.
You could post a poolspaforum.com, which is much more 'pool industry friendly' than PoolForum (even though I'm a 20+ year pool industry professional). The problem you have to watch out for is that many in the pool industry are much more interested in selling their product than in solving your problem, and thus won't hesitate to tell you that THEIR product will fix you right up, regardless of whether their product is a good fit or not.
Good luck!
