## What is Patios & Pool Decks?

Sunken pool decks are usually the result of soil washout from a slow leak or freeze-thaw under the edge slab. We lift the slab back to flush, fill the underlying void, and restore drainage, without draining the pool. Patio work follows the same minimally invasive playbook.

## Why pool decks sink in Metro Detroit

Lakeside Macomb communities — St. Clair Shores especially — see the worst of it. The combination of a high water table from Lake St. Clair, freeze-thaw cycles on lakeside slabs, and the occasional slow leak under the coping creates the perfect conditions for soil washout under a pool deck.

The slab settles unevenly. The coping starts to gap. Water collects where it shouldn’t. Eventually you’re looking at a tear-out and pour scenario that costs five figures and shuts down your pool for a season.

We lift the slab back to flush, fill the underlying void, and restore drainage — typically in a single afternoon, with the pool full the entire time.

## What makes our process work

We use 3/8-inch ports (about the diameter of a pencil) along the slab, not 1.5-2 inch holes like traditional mudjacking. The smaller ports mean less patching, finer control of lift pressure, and a finish that’s nearly invisible after color-matched patching.

Our limestone-and-foam mix is also stain-resistant under pool chemistry — important for the long-term cosmetics of the deck.

## When patio work overlaps with pool deck

Backyard patios across Wayne and Macomb counties often share a slab transition with the pool deck. We treat both at once: same gear, same crew, same day. For more on the diagnostic side, see

## Pricing

Most patio and pool deck jobs come in $600-$4,500. Larger lakeside or commercial pool deck work scales with linear footage and depth of settling. Every estimate is on-site, in writing, and backed by our no-fix-no-charge guarantee.

How It Works

## How Patios & Pool Decks works in Metro Detroit

01

### Site walk and leak check

We assess for soil washout, slow leaks, and freeze-thaw damage at the edge slab.

02

### Drill 3/8-inch ports

Pencil-sized ports at the slab — pool stays full, coping stays intact.

03

### Lift and void-fill

Limestone-foam mix lifts the slab back to flush and fills the underlying void.

04

### Patch and swim-back

Stain-free patches; you can swim the same evening.

Customer Reviews

## What Metro Detroit customers say about our work.

"Pool deck was sinking on the south edge from a slow leak. Concrete Leveling Detroit lifted the slab without draining the pool, filled the void underneath, and we were swimming the same evening. Crew was clean, polite, and explained everything."

FAQ

## Patios & Pool Decks FAQ

Common questions about this service.

Do you have to drain the pool?

No. We lift the deck slab from above, with the pool full. Most jobs allow same-day swim-back.

What causes pool decks to sink?

Almost always soil washout from a slow leak under the coping, or freeze-thaw cycle damage on lakeside slabs (common in St. Clair Shores and lakefront communities).

Will the patches stain?

Color-matched concrete patches are designed to blend; with proper finishing they stay stain-free under pool chemistry.

How does pool deck leveling compare to replacement?

Replacement requires draining the pool, tearing out the deck, and pouring new concrete. Most pool decks can be leveled at a fraction of that cost in a single visit.
