Mid-America Pool Renovation completely renovated the McKee Foods Community Pool, which had suffered extensive damage due to poor original construction practices and hydrostatic pressure. Built on a clay base without gravel bedding or relief ports, the pool shell was effectively being crushed by trapped subsurface water. Our team performed a deep structural pool rescue to stabilize the vessel and provide a permanent finish capable of withstanding the site’s challenging groundwater conditions.
“Built on a clay base with no gravel bedding and a lack of hydrostatic relief ports, subsurface water had no routes of escape… Up to 4-diaphragm pumps were used at one time to control and remove subsurface water.”
