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 Wantagh Avenue,
Merrick Road, Sunrise Highway (NY-27), Wantagh Parkway,
Park Avenue, and residential streets connecting toward the Wantagh LIRR Station area.
If you’re close to local anchors like Wantagh Park or Jones Beach State Park,
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
Do you handle underwater liner patching in ?
Yes. For most pinholes and small tears below the waterline, we can patch underwater using a pro-grade vinyl patch and adhesive,
then roll the edges to reduce lifting and improve hold.
What are the most common places liners leak?
Typical trouble spots include steps, corners, creases, and areas around returns,
skimmers, and faceplates. We inspect these first before committing to a patch location.
Can you patch seams that are starting to separate?
Sometimes. If the seam is minor and the vinyl still has strength, patching can stabilize it.
If the liner is brittle or seams are failing in multiple areas, we’ll tell you straight if patching is likely to be temporary.
How long does a liner patch visit usually take?
Most visits run about 45–90 minutes per repair area. Timing depends on access, location (steps/corners),
and how much prep is needed to get a clean bond.
Will brushing or vacuuming peel the patch up?
Normal maintenance is fine once the patch is properly seated. We edge-roll for a low-profile seal and give you simple care notes
(how to brush around the patch and chemistry targets that protect vinyl).
What does liner patching cost in ?
Repairs start at $285 + tax. If there are multiple leak points, a large tear,
or a tricky location, we quote it on site after assessment.
When should I skip patching and consider a larger repair?
If the liner is brittle, heavily faded, wrinkled badly, or repeatedly tearing around seams/fittings,
patching may only buy time. We’ll recommend the most cost-effective next step instead of selling you a “band-aid” repair.
