Why would one side of gunite pool drop one inch below deck after a hard freeze and after rewarming pop back up also now have horizontal crack running along both ends will HO cover this?
I have a feeling that what happened to you is exactly what happened to me, but it's not the gunite that dropped. Your pool deck rose. I wondered the same thing. It's kind of an optical illusion. The ground froze under the decking and caused it to push up. Thank goodness for that expansion joint between the decking and the coping, or my coping would have all broken off into the pool. We had a few little edges crack off which will require some minor repair, but like yours, our decking did go back down after a few days of warmer weather. Scared the you-know-what out of me when I first saw it, though. My pool guy said that the gunite is so thick, it's not going anywhere. Good luck!

Copings can be precast with straight lengths, corners, or bended segments. Most stones are made of permeable, grayish-white cement. Rather of Pool Copings stone, concrete or wood decking that loosens up to or fairly past the edge of some pool plans can be found. for more information visit on : buytilesandmore
What is the rubber material between the decking and coping called and where can you get some repair material of the same?

Remember that your seal job will not turn out well if you do not correctly prep the site.

What is the difference between emotion-focused coping strategies and problem- focused coping strategies?
Emotion-focused coping strategies involve managing the emotional distress caused by a situation, such as seeking social support or practicing relaxation techniques. Problem-focused coping strategies involve addressing the source of stress directly, such as making a plan of action or seeking information to solve the problem. Emotion-focused coping aims to regulate emotions, while problem-focused coping aims to solve the underlying issue.
