We will use hydraulic cement for that type of repair

Every pool floor I install, we trowel the floor and come back the next day to clean the floor up. you can check for any bad spots and assure yourself you have no potatoes under your liner. just my opinion

Call Garrett Liners and see if they have a dealer in your area, best liners I have ever installed 1 800 222 3650

All my years building pools, GRAVEL, no dirt and have a footer drain or sump pit

Use patio stones they work great

Scrape your walls real good and install wall foam to protect the new liner. As for the rope and float anchor if they spin you will have to cut it off, if your pool has aluminum coping you can get coping mount rope and float anchors. If your deck is cantilever there are rope anchors that you can...

Sometimes pouring hot water behind the liner will heat it enough to stretch it back into place, as hot as your tap gets don't boil the water

For a 16x32 I charge 2450.00 this is a pool with no steps or a fiberglass step. I don't break my jobs down ie liner is this price and labor is this. I include liner labor and new faceplates.If I just sold the liner it would be around 1900.00,but my main business is installing new pools and...

I use Garrett liners here in Cincinnati and they make a fantastic liner always happy with their product

I know you want to buy direct, but in my opinion not a great idea. I installed a liner last year that the customer measured and bought themselves, so I decided to check some of their dimensions. The customer ordered the liner for a depth of 8'10" and the pool was only 8'4" deep. I called the...

The best way is run all lines separately, if one leaks then they all leak. i have built hundreds of pools and separate lines is the way to go. Just my opinion

Teflon tape and silicone will do the trick do not glue

Two skimmers will depend on the amount of debris that will end up in the pool. All the pools we build get two, two deep end drains are a must. Return lines I would have four or five to help eliminate dead areas in the corners. Light in center of deep end or centered in pool on the house...

Just a thought when you order your pool kit see what kind of credit you can get for deleting your liner. I installed a customer supplied liner a few weeks back,and this liner was so under sized it was incredible. The liner was under sized 7" in the depth. The customer measured the final depth at...

Bonding is pretty simple, the wire attaches to your pump.The diving board will come with a jig that will attach to the steel wall panel. If you put rebar in the deck it has to attach to the pool in four areas.If you don't use rebar you will need to run a number 8 wire around the pool. Like I...

I can get the vermiculite for you, the cement is cheaper at Home Depot. We mix a 47 pound bag of Portland cement to a 20 pound bag of vermic. The distributor that I deal with is off of Crescentville Rd so anything you need is close. If we put your floor in I can have it delivered to your house...

Squaring the pool is no big deal as far as keeping things straight remember strings don't lie and when you level the pool rent a rotating laser. I have a Top Con laser that is accurate to 3/32 of an inch at 100 feet so the laser is the tool of choice. When Mark digs a pool his tolerance on the...

When you are ready I know the two very best excavators in the Cincinnati area and might be able to get one of them up to your house to look things over. They are both busy at this time, but coming up this fall things will slow down. I would love to help you out along the way and I have a very...

The best trick is to put a sump well behind the pool wall in the backfill and to access the pump you just put another skimmer lid in the concrete deck. We have done this many times and I think it beats a sump well in your yard. Remember drainage around the pool is key. Water can be our best...

Jay You live right near the gravel pits. Backfill with 1"washed gravel or 1"crushed limestone(no dust) it is a great base for concrete and will allow the water that gets behind your walls to escape via your footer drain, I get my gravel from Bluford Jackon.If your yard has enough drop you will...

I do liner replacements in Cincinnati and my charge for an 18x36 rectangle is around 2450.00. If the pool floor is bad a new floor charge is around 1300.00 so 3750.00 would get you a new liner and floor installed. If I could get 10,000 for a liner I would try to do about 15 liners a year and...

Will post more later, liner was just hung on 10/29 when we install the cover will take pix of pool full of water

Not sure how the customer will use the pool he was a roadie for the Ramones,and this is what he wanted. We are just the builder

[attachment=0:33gimc49]g4.jpg[/attachment:33gimc49] We built this pool this summer and it shows you can do anything in vinyl. Thank you to GARRETT LINERS for the great fit

if you go sand and the liner does float plan on the sand shifting and the floor needing retroweled. when I do liner repalcements I won't touch a sand floor, here in Cincinnati we use vermiculite/portland cement mix for our floors. I have seen a liner float and with a hard bottom you can pump the...

Use a 3" hole saw to cut a hole for your new wall fitting, we cut holes all the time for return lines. Also consider an overflow line put a standard return fitting high on the wall and plumb it into your footer drain that way if you have a mesh safety cover when the pool fills over the winter it...
