Any observations that anyone wants to offer now that I have posted photos? Please?

Hope this works. Here is a picture of one of the cracks as it appeared in the spring of 2013. On the advice of a pool guy, we decided to leave it and see how it fared through the winter of 2013-14. We had a mild winter and it didn't get any worse, so we had a guy fill it with resin last year...

Hi, I posted here a couple of years ago about my inground pool steps heaving. Since then, I have had: - the cracked concrete deck replaced and the cracks in the original steps repaired (2011), - the new deck removed and the steps completely replaced after they cracked again, along with a new...

Sure, here's a photo. We haven't had water quality issues, but we had to drain it completely both last year and the year before. It was down for most of the summer last year while we waited for two separate contractors to do their work (the pool restoration guy and the concrete guys). The...

My in-ground pool steps have cracked for the third year in a row! These are brand-new, good quality steps that were installed last year. After I had problems two years in a row with heaving and cracking of the steps and concrete deck, I decided to bite the bullet and put in a new set of steps...

Thanks, dpannell. The concrete guys are going to call me as soon as they can schedule the removal. I want them to do the work so they can minimize the damage to other parts of the patio. Once the concrete is out, we should be able to get in there and see what the problem is. If that...

This is the second time this has happened. When we bought our house six years ago, it had an existing three-year-old pool. Two years ago, when we opened it in the spring, we discovered that the fibreglass steps had heaved over the winter and large cracks had appeared on either side. We had...

Hi, everyone -- I am from Toronto, Canada and I have a 14x28-foot inground vinyl liner pool that was installed by the previous homeowners nine years ago. We have a lot of problems and need the help of the experts on here to help solve them!
