The main factors to consider are (the size and length of the crack); (position); (leak); (the appearance of the pool cover and wall). In conclusion, identifying whether a pool crack is structural or non-structural is essential for pool owners. Surface cracks are visible dents or surface damage in the pool and something that does not indicate that there is any leak in the pool. Concrete pools are one of the three main types that pools are made of; the other two are fiberglass and vinyl cladding.
Since not all pool cracks require extensive repair, if you are not sure of the nature of the crack or if it is more of a structural problem than a surface problem, it is advisable to consult a professional pool contractor or structural engineer.
