Answer
Why is water pooling on my patio?
A falls or drainage problem; a patio needs a slight even slope to shed water.
In short
Almost always a falls or drainage problem. A patio needs a slight, even slope to shed water to a drain or border, so pooling means the falls are wrong or a drain has failed. It can be corrected, and we build the falls right so water never sits.
