Swimming Pool Mastic Sealant Repair

Mastic Sealant Repair…What is it???
An old term for the joint between the coping and the deck is “Mastic Joint”.

The expansion joint is the rubbery substance that seals the coping to the deck. This allows the independent movement of the pool and the deck, which prevents water from getting behind the pool shell and eroding the dirt that holds the shell of the pool, which can also cause loose stones and loose tiles and other structural damage.
