Marcite repairs for your swimming pool
We now offer small marcite repairs for residential pools. Marcite is a form of plastic that is used in the construction of swimming pools. Marcite is used as a liner to create the inside of a pool and is typically covered with concrete.
Marcite can become damaged over time due to weathering or other factors such as improper cleaning procedures or even damage from your pets playing in the water. This can lead to cracks or other unsightly blemishes on your pool's surface. These blemishes are usually very noticeable and detract from the overall appearance of your pool area.
We are now offering an affordable solution for repairing these blemishes so that you can once again enjoy your beautiful pool area. We will come out to your house and repair any marcite damage that exists on your pool's surface by filling in those cracks with new marcite material, creating a seamless finish once again.
What is Pool Coping?
Pool coping is the manner in which the pool shell wall is capped either through poured in place concrete or pre-cast concrete materials such as tile and natural stone. When a person is hanging onto the edge of the pool and placing their arm on edge, the coping is the part of the pool they are hanging onto.
The pool coping is the material above the tile line that protects the top of the pool edging. This part of the pool is about twelve inches tall, also known as the bond beam. The coping separates the pool structure and the pool decking. Coping also has another use in which it acts as a frame around the pool.
By separating the deck from the pool, the deck can be moved without affecting the pool itself.
Coping involves mounting onto the bond beam, and it covers the edges while stealthily hiding the steel portions of the pool’s walls. Coping also assists the drainage system by making any water flow away from the pool and into the deck drains. Materials such as flagstone, brick, or synthetic decking can be used for coping pools.
Another use for coping is providing a safe, non-skid surface so that swimmers do not fall onto the concrete or into the water. Pool coping also creates a seamless look that is aesthetically pleasing if performed properly.
