Pool Deck Lifting
Pool Deck Lifting in Kansas City & Surrounding Areas
An uneven pool deck isn’t just unattractive — it can be dangerous. Sunken or sloped concrete around pools creates slip and trip hazards, drainage problems, and can allow water to flow toward the pool structure or home. Olympic Concrete Lifting provides professional pool deck lifting services to raise and level concrete using advanced polyurethane foam injection — without replacement.

What Is Pool Deck Lifting?
Pool deck lifting is a concrete leveling process that restores settled or uneven pool deck slabs to proper alignment. Instead of tearing out poolside concrete, we inject high-density polyurethane foam beneath the slab to fill voids, stabilize the soil, and gently lift the concrete.
This process, often referred to as polyjacking, provides a long-lasting solution for pool decks affected by soil settlement or erosion.
Common Signs Your Pool Deck Needs Lifting
Your pool deck may need lifting if you notice:
Uneven or sloping concrete around the pool
Trip hazards along joints or edges
Cracks forming due to settlement
Water pooling on the deck surface
Gaps between the deck and pool coping
These issues can worsen over time and increase safety risks.
Why Pool Decks Sink in the Kansas City Area
Pool decks commonly settle due to:
Poor soil compaction beneath the slab
Soil erosion from pool water splash-out
Freeze–thaw cycles that shift soil
Improper drainage around the pool
Natural soil movement over time
When the soil beneath the deck moves, the concrete above it follows.
Our Pool Deck Lifting Process
We use polyurethane foam injection to lift and stabilize pool decks with precision and care.
The process includes:
Drilling small, discreet holes into the pool deck
Injecting expanding polyurethane foam beneath the slab
Filling voids and lifting the concrete evenly
Leveling the surface and patching the holes
Most pool deck lifting projects are completed in a few hours, with same-day usability.
