fountain cracking?
Have a client with whom we mantain his property. about 3 yrs ago he decides he wants to install a fountain a large 12 ft in diameter pool base fountain with 3 tiers.
We did not do the concrete work or fountain installation but have the task to try and repair it. great customer will pay anything to get it right.
These fountains typically get the base poured then the wall perimeter set in place ( From what i understand and seen on others). This one however gets the entire circular drive and base of the fountain poured one shot the fountain walls put up then expansion joints cut in
Mind you the joints were cut up to the fountain side walls
The problem now is the expansion joint wants to continue thru the fountain and to the other side meeting the expansion joint on that side
Is it possible if i saw cut around the fountain to seperate the 2 then fill the cracks in the fountain floor the cracking will stop?
There is no freeze thaw down here
hope that was explained correctly
