Concrete Repair Photo Album: Lakeland, TN Pool Deck Leveling & Joint Sealing with PolyLevel™ + NexusPro™
Problem — Pool Deck Water Pooling, Mold, and Failing Joints (Lakeland, TN)Donna H. and her husband in Lakeland, TN had lived in their home for 15 years and contacted us because one pool-deck slab repeatedly held water and developed mold. Our inspection identified multiple voids under the deck and a localized ½-inch settlement behind the waterfall. Although the concern began as an aesthetic issue, the wooden control joints and trapped moisture indicated insufficient support that would continue to stain and harbor growth without correction.
Solution — PolyLevel™ Lift, Void Fill, and NexusPro™ Joint & Crack SealingWe installed our 2-Part Concrete Protection System—a resurfacing alternative combining PolyLevel™ (precise foam injection to fill voids, lift, and stabilize slabs) and NexusPro™ (flexible, UV-resistant joint and crack sealant). The crew removed the wooden control joints, performed targeted PolyLevel™ injections to lift the settled area behind the waterfall, addressed the pool coping, and then sealed the deck’s joints and cracks with NexusPro™ for cleaner lines and better water shedding. The lift was achieved as planned, the slab was stabilized, and the customers were very pleased with the uniform look.
Why It Mattered — Better Drainage Paths and Long-Term Protection for Lakeland Pool DecksBy stabilizing soils and supporting the slab with lightweight, high-density PolyLevel™, the deck gained reliable support without the mess or weight of mudjacking, while NexusPro™ helped keep water out of joints to reduce future movement and surface growth.

Failing Wooden Control Joints with Weed Growth
The original wooden control joints had deteriorated, allowing weeds to sprout between slabs. These weak joints trapped moisture and no longer protected the concrete edges.

Hairline Concrete Crack Before Repair - Lakeland, TN
A close look at one of several cracks across the pool deck. Even small cracks can widen over time, letting in water and accelerating settlement if left unsealed.
Failing Control Joints
If there are weeds there, then water is there as well.
Cracks Leading to Pool Entry Sealed- Safety Hazard
Settlement caused cracks to run directly toward the pool steps. Left untreated, this could have worsened into uneven surfaces and safety issues for swimmers.
Visible Cracks Along Pool Deck Sealed
Long cracks formed across the concrete surface, a clear sign of voids beneath the slab. These gaps allowed water intrusion and posed future trip hazards around the pool.
After PolyLevel™ Lift and NexusPro™ Sealing
Once lifted and stabilized with PolyLevel™, the slab received a full two-part treatment. Joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro™, creating smooth, durable lines.
