Does Your Pool Need Crack Repair?
Is that crack a structure crack or a surface crack? Do you need emergency pool crack repair?
Finding a crack in your pool can be a pretty worrying experience.
And while you may feel inclined to panic, a crack is not always a cause for alarm. Not all holes or fissures mean the same thing, the trick is being able to tell the difference between whatโs superficial and whatโs severe.
If youโve recently discovered a crack in your pool, but arenโt sure how bad it is, weโre here to help.
Hereโs everything you need to know about how to recognize swimming pool cracks, and what could be causing them.
Here are the 4 most common reasons you might need pool crack repair:

Call Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. If Your Pool Is Leaking Water
Over time, pools, spas, fountains, and baptistries might develop surface cracks. When people see a pool crack or leak, they often fear the worst: a total replacement or fiberglass pool resurfacing. In many instances, however, a simple patch to the offending area may be all that is required, saving you downtime and money.
When your home or commercial pool needs a repair, itโs important to call an experienced pool repair technician for the job. When the gel coat is compromised, water can seep into the surface, which in turn causes it to break down. Only an experienced specialist knows how to handle a repair without destroying the surface during the process.
The problem with most superficial repairs is that a fiberglass pool shell has the tendency to โflexโ ever so slightly when the ground shifts. This is a good thing compared to concrete because fiberglass wonโt crack. But it can be a bad thing because superficial repairs can flex apart and fail. Thatโs why you donโt want to trust your fiberglass repair job to someone inexperienced doing Pool Repair, like a fiberglass boat specialist for example.
With a fiberglass shell, the pool must be stabilized during the repair in order to keep the sand bed behind it from shifting and causing even more damage. Even a modestly high water table can destroy the shell by trying to float it. Any leak allowing water under the pool shell can cause that sand bed to shift, which negatively affects the structural integrity of the entire pool.
Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. can evaluate the issues you are having with your existing pool and figure out the best available solutions for your situation. Our free evaluation and a pool repair estimate will educate you as to which option makes the most sense. We specialize in residential, commercial, and baptistry pools and handle:
All kinds of swimming repairs
Fiberglass repair
Gunite repair
Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. is the leading pool and spa restoration company in Texas, specializing in fiberglass resurfacing and repair. Fiberglass pool resurfacing is an evolving technology that has been used in the swimming pool industry for over 50 years. Fiberglass gel coat is nonporous and smooth; dirt and algae are less likely to find a foothold. Itโs the restoration material of choice no matter what kind of repair you need.
Fiberglass has a superior strength-to-weight ratio as compared to other materials. It also has the least expansion and contraction with heat, cold, and stress plus it acts as an insulator keeping pool water about 10 degrees warmer. Itโs the material most often used in water-related industries: sailboats, kayaks, waterparks, surfboards, and jet skis. Itโs environmentally friendly and made of natural elements that are heated, melted, and reshaped.
When you need pool repair, look no further than Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. We can tackle gunite, concrete, and plaster pool leak repairs, pool plumbing repair, and even repair and restore baptistries. We have decades of experience and have yet to encounter a pool we couldnโt restore and repair.
Worked on 4th of July!
You came to our house last July to repair our 34 year old fiberglass pool. You were professional from the moment that you arrived to give us a bid to the time that you left The repair crew left our pool and yard in such a fashion that you would never have known they were there. We were totally shocked that the employees would give up their July 4th holiday to work on our pool! We are so happy that we chose Texas Fiberglass Pools!!! Thank You!
I highly recommend
I just had my old 1981 fiberglass pool totally โrenewedโ by Oliver and the great crews they have. I had a light removed, a new skimmer unit and drain installed, total sanding, repairing and gel coat. I highly recommend Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. to anyone in Texas who needs fiberglass repair or resurfacing. Theyโre honest, trustworthy and hardworking and strive to make the customer happy. This was one of the most positive experiences I have ever had with a contractor of any kind.
Won't Ever Use Anyone Else!!
I won't ever use anyone else for my pool and deck. Gabriel is an outstanding communicator, the guys on the team were the cleanest workers and most courteous that they could possibly be, and the entire process was completely painless. They even cleaned my pool afterward, which was a very thoughtful bonus. Highly appreciated for a rare excellent experience with service providers!
Beyond Happy!
A special thanks to Gabriel and his team. Our pool was resurfaced and looks brand new. We are beyond happy with the results. The job was completed in a timely manner. We appreciate Gabriel's communication, reliability, follow through and follow up as well as his worker's professionalism. These are things that are hard to come by with service providers. It was a painless experience with great results!
Earned a 5 Star Review!
My first project with Texas Fiberglass Pools was a few years ago. They replaced the cement for the deck and replaced the tile. Removed and put on a new fiberglass surface. The workers did a great job but were a little messy, nothing out of the normal. Oliver personally worked on the pool and checked in frequently with me on progress and satisfaction. We ran into problems with black cobalt dots showing up on the surface a couple years down the road. The pool was under warranty and Oliver graciously honored that warranty and resurfaced the fiberglass. This past year the surface began to show black dots again. Oliver once again honored his warranty and the pool looks beautiful and earned a 5 star review. Thank you TFP!
Professional Job in a Timely Manner
My special thanks to Mr. Gabriel Chairez and his team for the wonderful
job you did on our pool. Your team did a professional job in a timely
manner and I would be more than happy to refer you folks to anyone whom
may need such a work. You guys were professional and did a great job with
a reasonable price! Our pool looks much nicer now! Thank You!
Timely and Professional
This project was handled in a timely and professional manner from the start. Almost as comforting as the warranty are the words of reassurance and confidence in their methods that come from Oliver (owner and sales) and his father in law Martin (owner and hands on with the crews). I also received the same degree of care and reassurance from Gabriel Chairez (sales and crews supervisor). These guys have been at this for a long time and have a lenghty list of satisfied customers, me included now. I really believe their methods will succeed where others have failed. If they do fail, I am confident that they will be there to honor their word and warranty.
Wonderful to Work With!
Texas Fiberglass Pools was wonderful to work with! Our pool was an older gunite pool with tons of cracks. We were told, by the former owner, that the pool had been fiberglass resurfaced but we found out that it was not, in fact all they had done was paint the pool with fiberglass paint grrr. Good news Texas Fiberglass came to the rescue, they removed all the paint, repaired the cracks, and finished the pool with all new fiberglass. The new tiles and the rock surround all are beautiful and the redesigned spa spill over is perfect. After the cover comes off I'll send pictures. A+ for Texas Fiberglass!!
Prompt, Courteous, Professional.
These guys did a great job resurfacing our pool, replacing the light and installing a handrail. Prompt, courteous, professional team. They were recommended by a neighbor, and I would recommend them myself.
Highly Recommend - Attention to detail was great!
I had Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. come out and resurface my fiberglass pool and resurface my deck. So happy that I had Oliver and his crew out! The detailed work they did was great. Oliver is a man of his word and delivered what he said he would. My pool looks like (even better really) when I first got the pool. Great Job Oliver! I highly recommend this company for all your pool renovations, remodeling and repairs!
Awesome work ethic and results
Texas Fiberglass Pools Inc. did an awesome job on our pool. We had several leaks, faded paint, bulges, etc. They were very prompt at showing up on time and also made sure everything was clean before they left for the day. All crew members were awesome and worked their butts off. With all the rain we received this spring, they still came out and worked in between rain breaks,. Thanks again Gaberiel & workers
Highly Recommend!
This pool was at the point where it needed to be removed or replaced with a new pool. It was no longer functional. The cost to install a new gunite pool started around $55,000 dollars which was more than I wanted to spend. I called Texas Fiberglass Pools and Gabriel came out and explained what they could do with the pool. He gave me a quote on the spot and we agreed on the price which was less than half the cost of putting in a new pool. They began work within a couple of weeks and worked on the pool steadily until it was complete. It was truly amazing the extent of work and remodeling that was performed to make the pool look and work like a new pool.I would highly recommend Texas Fiberglass Pools for anyone that is considering remodeling their fiberglass pool.
