Diagnosing and Fixing ASR (Concrete Cancer) in Austin Pools

From day one, ASR issues could be lurking in your Austin pool if the contractor used an improper mix or if the cement manufacturer provided a faulty blend. When signs of the problem appear one to several years down the road, that contractor often isn’t around. That’s when Austin pool owners often turn to our ASR (Concrete Cancer) specialists to fix the problem.

At Front2Back Custom in Austin, TX, we get straight to the point: we diagnose and fix ASR, ensuring your pool’s foundation is strong and durable.

Why is ASR a Hidden Threat for Austin’s Pools?

ASR, or Alkali-Silica Reaction, is a silent troublemaker. It’s a reaction that can cause your pool’s concrete to crack and weaken. In Austin’s heat, where pools are essential, addressing ASR is vital to ensure your pool lasts season after season.

From ASR Detection to Resolution: Our Approach

Here’s what we do:

ASR Detection

Through comprehensive testing methods, including core sampling, petrographic analysis, and evaluations of shotcrete or gunite, we assess whether ASR is affecting your pool.

Honest ASR Assessment

While the reality is that most pools affected by ASR can’t be fully repaired, there are exceptions. If your pool sits 7 feet or more above the water table, there’s potential for repair. For many, however, the primary concern will be addressing leaks, and we can provide effective solutions to halt them.
