In-ground pools built with fiberglass steps can sometimes experience erosion of the sand or soil under the steps. The lack of support under the steps results in flexing and possible cracking of the steps. Cracking can lead to safety issues and further erosion of the backfill around the steps and pool deck. Before Secure Set, homeowners often had to remove, backfill, and replace the steps at considerable expense. In most cases, the steps were destroyed in the removal process, adding to the expense.
Simple and Lasting Pool Step Repair with Secure Set Spray Foam.
Secure Set Spray Foam is a two component, high density, closed cell polyurethane foam and can be used to easily fill the voids under and around the fiberglass pool steps. Here’s an overview of the process:
As the spray foam fills the cavity, it will harden and cure quickly, restoring the solid integrity of the steps.
Secure Set Spray Foam is both a cost-effective and time-saving solution for repairing fiberglass pool steps. It can also be used to fill voids under your pool deck.
A homeowner uses Secure Set Spray Foam to fill a void under fiberglass pool steps. Secure Set will not only support the steps, it will prevent further erosion.

Our customers do their research and often compare bids from contractors to rip out and replace a concrete slab or level it with other methods before deciding to use Secure Set on their own.
Two things stand out as factors in choosing to do it themselves:
With Secure Set Spray Foam there is no need to remove concrete, backfill and compact the soil, and then replace the concrete. Even hard to reach or hidden voids can be filled with Secure Set.
