    Smile question on pool deck

    hello all i have a heaving pool deck and i'm wondering what other people have done to correct this issue. I have a vinyl pool and concrete around the pool.

    I've read about mudjacking or slabjacking but i'm in an area where i cannot find somebody to perform these items.
    I'm curious if anybody else has had this issue?

    I'll post up some pics later tonight.. but i'm not sure if i have permissions since i'm new here.

    Thanks in advance!
    and Hello!

    You can post pictures, with Photobucket, Webshot, Flickr or Picasa, but nobody will see them till they've been checked.

    HOWEVER, if nobody in your area does "hydro-jacking" (what it's called here) . . . it's kinda a moot point. I don't think you'd want to pay travel rates for a company out of Toronto, much less Atlanta, Georgia.

    I must have made a mistake in my measurements.. It is indeed 75000 liters verified by pool store

    The issue with the cracks in the concrete is the coping has snapped off and there's a 1" gap between coping and concrete. I thought about putting concrete in the gap but I'm not sure of that's a wise idea.

    Ive also thought about taking out the whole piece of concrete and putting a new one in. I'm not sure on the difficulty level of this solution. (have a bad back)

    Pool store 'verified' volume is almost always high.

    Yeah I know the pool store information can be highly inaccurate but I've kinda verified the amount due to the rise of tc and decrease of ph when adding a specific amount of chlorine / muriatic acid.

    Thanks though!
