    Hey Everyone! this video is a sequel to the original I did 4 years ago where I showed you how to raise a sunken pool deck. In this one I take you through the ENTIRE process, from start to finish showing how we trench, lift, and backfill the void left under the pool deck. I implemented all the lessons learned and best practices from the original video into this easy to follow, step by step guide. This is a MUCH safer alternative to mud jacking, as you control the lift and the dispersion of material.
    The process I demonstrate in this video can be used on nearly any concrete surface that needs to be leveled ( Driveway, sidewalk, parking pad, pool deck, splash pad, you name it! )
    This was an INCREDIBLY cost effective fix, I was quoted thousands of dollars by local companies to come in and do the work. I was able to complete the ENTIRE project on my own for around $500... An incredible savings!
    This time around I used polyurethane spray foam to fill the void under the majority of the pool deck, then finished things off with Limestone. this saved me tons of time opposed to the first video where I packed over 200 sq ft of limestone with a 1x6...

    Nice stuff man, this looks heavy duty to do. How did you decide you need to run this across the entire perimeter of the pool vs a small area? Is it best practice to check the entire perimeter?

    • @RegsChannel
      @RegsChannel  2 месяца назад +1

      Hey there! Thanks for the kind words! For me, I had a visible slope on each side of the pool deck, if you check out my OG video in the series I had leveled the opposite side that was way worse a few years earlier. For sure check the entire perimeter. Remember a bit of a slope is ok, but if it's like 4+ inches over 2 feet of pool deck that's too much! LMK if you need any advice along the way.

    Can you use lightweight concrete and just build pillars ?

    • @RegsChannel
      @RegsChannel  13 дней назад

      I'm not too sure how to do that tbh, you still need to be able to get the pool deck level and don't have a ton of room to operate.

      This is similar to the one I used. In your hardware store open the spray foam container and size the PEX pipe to nozzle tip, that should help! www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/waterline-flexible-lightweight-pex-pipe-white-1-2-in-x-5-ft-0631419p.html

    You might also consider construction grout instead of foam. It’s a bit cheaper (here at least) and is made for filling in voids like that. Nice job.

      Thanks so much for the kind words! That's something I would definitely look into! Cannot be applied in a similar manner?

      @@RegsChannel it’s possible to pump it in with the right equipment, but it flows like a runny cement so you can pour it in at the back of the slab and it’ll rise up and flow into all the nooks and crannies. You just have to form out the back so it doesn’t run out the back part that you lifted.

    • @RegsChannel

      @@bdpgarage I see, based on my situation you would you get the construction grout in the void then? Drill holes in the top of the pool deck near the wall and then flow it in that way while making a form around the edge of the pool deck? My only concern would be the additional weight of the construction grout causing additional compaction. Good to hear of another alternative though!

    • @bdpgarage
      @bdpgarage 10 месяцев назад +1

      @@RegsChannel you could drill holes, or just pour it in from behind. Thats why you need to form up the “lifted side” so the grout doesn’t run out. I left about an inch gap that I could pour in.

      @@bdpgarage sorry I'm just not visualizing the "pour it in from behind" part the only open side is the low side that would need the form applied to. The steel wall forms the high side, and the edge of the concrete is the low side.... Hope that helps!

    Why not put concrete back in? I have to do this to my deck

    • @RegsChannel
      @RegsChannel  13 дней назад

      You could but you need to have it be able to flow uphill to address the settled void. Also if you need to access plumbing in the future you ideally don't want it encased in concrete. Hope that helps!

    This happened to an area of my pool deck here in Florida. Only problem is my deck meets my lanai so I cannot dig it out

    • @RegsChannel
      @RegsChannel  3 месяца назад +2

      What you could do is look into getting it mud jacked. Basically they drill small holes in the pool deck and then pump in a mud slurry that actually lifts the slab back up. The challenge though is that sometimes the slurry could push on the pool wall, that is what happens to me when I recorded the original video (check out my channel to see that one) and made me jack up the pool deck. Good luck with the repair, it sounds difficult but not impossible!
