Hi, I live in the Raleigh NC area. I have a 45ish year old concrete pool with a crack in the bottom. It has been unused and uncovered for 3 years. First problem. The pool is surrounded by pine trees that dump detritus in the water. It’s a swamp at this point. Really gross. Any suggestions...

Not yet. Claudette came through and the weather wasn’t conducive.

It hurts.

Paint?

Thanks y’all!! I live outside of Raleigh NC. We’re on the edge of the Coastal Plain - so we have a high water table. Our house and pool were built by a building contractor who lived here with his family. The pool is poured concrete. My husband theorizes that he had his workers essentially...

What would need renovating? We have wondered about that. Thanks for your reply.

Pool was running fine 3 years ago. Not sure why it doesn’t have a drain. There is a leak in the bottom from a crack. Previous owner vaguely told us not to drain the pool right before a hurricane. Lol. The pump works fine. The previous owner installed a heavy duty pump. We’ve had frogs and...

Hi, I'm having a problem with the circulation in our pool. Last year at the end of the summer there was enough circulation to keep the chemicals up to proper levels, but there wasn't enough suction to vacuum the pool. There was a possibility that some small stones fell into the pipe with the...

Then why does it work for me?? :?:

PS He's read Pool School, but wants to understand more. :roll: Chris :wave:

Hi! I've been doing BBB since last summer and my pool looks great. My husband (who's a bit of a geek) has taken an interest in the testing and wants to know what the numbers mean. I can't explain it, I just feed the numbers into the pool calculator and do what it tells me to do. Will someone...

Hi, A year and a half ago we bought our house with a pool - Johnston County NC. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Never had a pool before this. House was built in 1974, pool sometime after that. It's concrete, 20x40 and painted. The house sat empty for two years before we bought it...
