Concrete Cancer? Your Pool Can’t Be Saved, But Your Backyard Can.
AUSTIN POOL EMERGENCY:
Concrete Cancer Is Terminal, Here’s How To Stop It.
If Your Pool Shows:
Spiderweb Cracks (Like Shattered Glass)
While generally cosmetic, they can be a sign of stress or movement within the pool structure.
Crumbling Edges Or Hollow Sounds When Tapped
These create safety hazards due to sharp edges or loose coping, can also potential damage to the pool's structural integrity, and compromise aesthetics.
Rust Stains
Rust can damage pool surfaces, make water appear cloudy or discolored, and can even lead to corrosion of metal components in the pool's filtration system or structure.
