CAULKING REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT
Water parks, swimming pools, and decks are substantial, rigid structures that employ expansion joints to mitigate cracking. Expansion joints facilitate the adjustment of sections of the pool or deck in response to seasonal or hydrostatic movements and stresses. If the existing expansion joint is fractured, damaged, or separating, it can be replaced. Our pool professionals will meticulously remove the obsolete joint, prep and clean the expansion joint before reinstalling the new sealant.
- Swimming pools with plaster finishes require tiling on both sides of the expansion joints to provide a finished edge for the caulking to adhere to. This is to prevent the pool from leaking.
- We offer a caulking that can be used underwater to replace or repair existing pool surfaces. This can be done without draining the pool, which saves on time and costs.
- Deck expansion joints, located behind the pool coping, around the skimmers, and at regular intervals throughout the pool deck, require caulking to prevent water infiltration beneath the structures. Excessive water accumulation beneath the pool deck and behind the pool walls leads to the formation of voids, and corrosion of embedded steel.
