Pool Deck Cracking in Mira Mesa, CA

Deck cracks range from cosmetic surface lines to structural movement, and telling them apart decides the fix. In Mira Mesa, that is worth diagnosing before it turns into a bigger repair.

Around here that means 1980s-era equipment and plaster reaching the end of their service life across the tract, and it shows up in problems exactly like this one.
