Gunite pool repair in Jackson
Jackson has more old gunite pools than anywhere else in central Mississippi. Neighborhoods like Eastover, Woodland Hills, and Belhaven were building backyard pools in the 60s and 70s, and a lot of those shells are still in the ground. Fifty years of clay movement leaves marks: step cracks in the deep end, plaster worn down to gray gunite, tile lines that popped loose a decade ago.
We repair those shells. Crack injection, structural staples, replastering, tile and coping work, and leak detection. We don't build new pools, so we're not trying to talk you into a $150,000 rebuild when a $3,000 repair gets you swimming again.

Most of Jackson sits on Yazoo clay, which swells when wet and shrinks hard in an August drought. That cycle is the number one reason older Jackson pools crack. Repairs here need to account for soil movement, not just patch the symptom.

Jackson questions
My pool was built in the 1970s. Is it worth repairing?
Usually, yes. A gunite shell is structural concrete and most 70s shells in Jackson are still sound. If the shell holds water after repair, a replaster and new tile brings it back for a fraction of what a new pool costs. We'll tell you straight if a shell is past saving.
Do you work in Eastover and Belhaven?
Yes. Older established neighborhoods are most of our Jackson work, since that is where the aging gunite pools are.
