Repairing and renovating a gunite pool beam involves several steps to ensure the structural integrity and aesthetic appeal of the pool. Here’s a general outline of the process:
Begin by assessing the condition of the pool beam. Look for signs of cracks, spalling, or other damage that may have compromised the structural integrity of the pool’s gunite beam. It’s important to identify the extent of the damage before proceeding with repairs. Sometimes we can not fully asses the damage until all the coping and tile have been removed.
If there are cracks or spalling in the gunite pool beam, they will need to be addressed. This typically involves cleaning out the damaged areas, applying a bonding agent, and then filling the cracks and voids with a specialized repair mortar designed for use in swimming pools.
Depending on the extent of the damage, it may be necessary to reinforce the pool beam with additional steel rebar or other structural materials to ensure its strength and stability.
After the repairs are complete, it’s important to waterproof the pool beam to prevent future water penetration and damage. This may involve applying a waterproofing membrane or coating to the surface of the beam.
If the pool beam is being renovated, this would be the time to install the new tile and coping to complete the pool beam renovation.
Once the repairs and renovations of the pool tile and coping are completed, Gunite Restoration Inc. will install a new urethane caulking joint between the new pool coping and the pool decking. This joint urethane is also referred to as Deck-O-Seal. We do have multiple colors available to match your decking and pool coping aesthetics.
It’s important to note that repairing and renovating a gunite pool beam is a complex process that may require the expertise of a professional pool contractor such as Gunite Restoration Inc. and even sometimes will get the recommendations of a structural engineer in certain situations. Working with experienced professionals can help ensure that the repairs are done correctly and that the pool beam is restored to its optimal condition.
