Having a concrete guy, with all his big equipment, out today to do dirt work in my yard. He'll also be pouring two big patio slabs. He is willing to level my pool site, but says he'd have to dig down 14" or so if leveling to the lowest point. He says no need -- says he can build it up and compress it such that it won't erode or otherwise get out of level with the pool on it. Not sure he understands the pool will go up and come down seasonally, or if that would matter to him. He is sure it will be okay. I am afraid since all I've read on TFP is to never try to level by building up.
I need to meet with him in an hour (sorry for late notice - he just called and told me his thoughts) as he is out at the house beginning the dirt work.
Anyone think it will be okay to build up, given that this is an actual contractor with the right equipment, not just me with a shovel? His plan as I understand it is to use dirt and sand, not rock as he usually wood since that might be bad for the liner.
Thanks and sorry for the rush!!
