LINER PATCH •
Pool Liner Patching in
Empire Pools provides professional vinyl pool liner patching in for
tears, punctures, seam separations, and small leaks—including underwater patching when the repair area is below the waterline.
Every patch starts with proper prep: we inspect liner condition and seam integrity, confirm the leak area, clean and prep the surface,
apply a pro-grade adhesive patch, remove bubbles, and edge-roll for a tight, low-profile seal that holds.
We also check nearby fittings/faceplates and explain chemistry targets that protect vinyl over time.
In , we commonly run routes near
Hempstead Turnpike (NY-24),
Merrick Avenue,
East Meadow Avenue,
Stewart Avenue,
Front Street,
Eisenhower Park,
and the nearby residential blocks connecting toward Levittown and Westbury.
If you’re close to anchors like Nassau University Medical Center (NUMC) or the Nassau Coliseum / Eisenhower Park complex,
we can typically schedule quickly and patch cleanly without overcomplicating the job.

Liner Patching Tuned to
In backyards, wind, pollen, and tree debris can create micro-scratches that turn into pinholes over time—especially around steps,
shallow ledges, and return fittings. We patch with placement and prep that’s designed to hold under normal brushing, vacuuming, and swimmer traffic.
homeowners count on us to work around local weather swings and storm cycles so your liner looks right and stays watertight after the patch.

Liner Patch — FAQs
Can you patch a vinyl pool liner underwater in ?
Yes. Most pinholes and small tears can be patched underwater. We prep the surface, apply a pro-grade adhesive patch,
remove bubbles, and edge-roll it so it lays flat and bonds tight.
What are the most common places liners leak?
We most often see leaks near steps, corners, returns, skimmers,
and along seams. We inspect those high-stress points before committing to a patch location.
How do you find the leak if I can’t see a tear?
We start with symptom-based logic (how fast the level drops and where it stops), then a close visual inspection of common failure points.
If the liner is patterned, we also check creases and wrinkle lines where pinholes like to hide.
How long does a liner patch appointment take?
Most appointments run 45–90 minutes per area depending on access and location (steps/corners/fittings).
Multiple areas take longer and are quoted after we see the scope.
Will the patch look ugly?
We place patches thoughtfully and roll the edges so the finish is low-profile. On patterned liners, we choose the cleanest placement we can.
It won’t be “invisible,” but it should look neat and intentional—not sloppy.
How long will a patch last?
With proper prep and balanced water, patches can last multiple seasons. We’ll give you simple care notes (brush/vac habits and chemistry targets)
to maximize lifespan and avoid edge lift.
What does liner patching cost in ?
Liner patching starts at $285 + tax. Larger tears, multiple areas, seam work, or tricky locations are priced on-site after assessment.
When is patching NOT the right solution?
If the liner is very brittle, heavily faded, repeatedly tearing at seams, or failing around fittings, patching may only be temporary.
We’ll tell you straight if a bigger repair or replacement makes more sense.
