Pool Patio Repair & Concrete Raising

Uneven and settled pool patios are not only unsightly — they can create tripping hazards and structural issues. EFT offers advanced slabjacking solutions to raise and level sunken pool decks and patios with minimal disruption, cost, and environmental impact. Serving Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and surrounding areas with premium concrete patio repair services.

What Is Pool Patio & Concrete Slab Raising?

Swimming pool patios are especially vulnerable to uneven settlement due to poor soil preparation, moisture issues, or subgrade compressibility. When soil erodes or compacts unevenly beneath a patio slab, the concrete can sink, creating dangerous transitions and surface hazards.

Slabjacking — also called concrete raising — provides a minimally invasive solution. Small access holes are drilled into the patio slab and a high-performance material (typically polyurethane foam) is injected beneath. As the material expands, it fills subsurface voids and lifts the slab back to level.

Homeowners and property managers alike choose slabjacking because it avoids the cost, mess, and landscape disruption associated with conventional “rip-and-replace” methods.

Fast, Clean, and Cost-Effective

Most pool patio raising jobs are completed in a single day, and the patio can be used immediately after the work is finished — saving you time, money, and hassle.

Why Pool Patios Settle or Sink

Poor Soil Preparation

If subgrade soils were not properly compacted before concrete placement, the slab can settle unevenly as soils consolidate over time.

Water Infiltration & Erosion

Pooling water, improper drainage, or irrigation runoff can wash away soil beneath patios, creating voids that lead to slab settlement.

Temperature & Seasonal Movements

Freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal changes can shift moisture in the soil, leading to expansion, contraction, and eventual slab movement.

Advantages of Slabjacking for Pool Patio Repair

Fast Completion Time

Most pool patio slabjacking projects are finished in a matter of hours — not days — allowing immediate use of the surface once the work is done.

Clean, Low-Impact Process

Small injection holes mean minimal debris, dust, and cleanup compared to full concrete removal and replacement.

Cost-Effective Alternative

Slabjacking often costs a fraction of a traditional “rip-and-replace” repair, saving money on excavation, labor, and material costs.

Environmentally Friendly Repair

This approach uses less heavy equipment, minimizes carbon emissions, and avoids hauling large volumes of concrete to landfills — making it a greener choice for concrete patio repair.
