Ram Jack DIY for pool.

This is a beach pool so sandy soil and not dirt or clay.
An 8 foot section with two square slabs have sunk.
I don’t want to mess up the pool.
Concrete man says he wants to do the whole pool deck but I rent this property out and don’t want to lose all the year’s rent to fix the bugs hole thing with just two squares sinking. . I’m going to go piece by piece on this property.
How do I raise these two slab squares even with the pool deck?

probably lots of companies that do this, but as an example. Drill holes into slab, inject which raises slab, and then fill holes back up.

id be interested to know how those cut pavers/bricks that are running perpendicular to the coping were installed. Were they set with each slab, or are they separated from each slab? If you lift 1 slab, will the paver rise with it, or is it independent? Its hard to tell where your joints are located

That's a pretty slick video.

House was built in the 70s so not sure. The slabs are singles.

Temp fix is to drill and pump foam but I'm positive the slab is sinking because of washout and chances are the foam won't stop that or it will while causing other problems.

Still having the washout but happening below the foam, having washout in another location, or if the water source that's causing the washout is drainage and gets clogged.
ETA: I'd probably do the foam and see what happens.
