Above-Grade, Upstairs, High-Rise Commercial Pools and Spas

Believe it or not, there is no requirement in the Florida Building Code requiring developers to install waterproofing/dampproffing on elevated pools and spas. Some developers want to save this expense, so they just install the pool finish over the pool shell. However, a pool finish is not waterproof. The pool will look great for a while, then slowly, water will eventually leech into the concrete pool shell structure. Over time this water intrusion into the pool shell will cause the structure?s reinforcing steel to oxidize (rust), and may cause significant damage to the pool shell, even complete catastrophic shell failure!

If you are the owner of an elevated pool and spa, and you are contemplating rust repairs or a renovation, contact Essig Pools for an assessment of the pool and spa condition. We will provide a quotation with the proper specifications and scope of work for a successful project.
