In Southwest Florida the pool deck and lanai are where life happens — until the concrete cracks, sinks, or lifts at the joints. The cause is almost always washed-out sand beneath the slab. We raise settled pool decks with polyurethane and seal them against the water that started it.

A pool deck sits on compacted sand, and sand and water don't stay put. Pool splash-out, sprinkler overspray, and our heavy summer rains all wash fine material out from under the deck. Because a pool deck is a thin slab over that base, it doesn't take much of a void before the concrete drops, cracks, and forms a lip.
Common signs around SW Florida pools and screened lanais:
We lift settled pool decks the same way we level other concrete — PolyLevel polyurethane injection through small ports — but pool decks get extra attention at the joints. After the lift, we seal the control joints and the gap at the coping with NexusPro, a flexible joint sealant, and can apply SealantPro to help the concrete shed water and resist staining. Sealing is what keeps the next rainy season from washing the base out all over again.
For the full mechanics of how the lift works, see our concrete leveling page. On a pool deck, the difference is in protecting the joints and the pool edge.
Every pool deck is priced by its own condition. The factors that move the number:

Yes. Polyurethane injection raises the existing deck through penny-sized ports, so there is no demolition and no pouring new concrete. It is far less disruptive than replacing the deck.
No — the process is precise and low-impact. We work carefully around the pool coping and screen track, which are exactly the areas we then seal to keep water out.
Usually. Cracks are often the result of the deck settling into a void; once we lift and support it and seal the joints, the movement stops. If a section is beyond repair we'll say so up front.
Many pool deck lifts are completed in a day, and the polymer cures quickly so you are back to using the deck fast. The exact timeline depends on the size and how much sealing is involved.
