We are currently under yard construction to level our backyard for our Intex 26 x 52 pool. We are having to dig some spots and fill others to make our yard level. We are NOT using sand to level. We have plenty of good old fill dirt for that. My questions are
1. I would like a thin layer of sand on top once we get level. Actually for looks to cover up your basic "dirt" look. Is there any reason that would affect the pool (since intex says no sand)?
2. This is probably a stupid question but if we use the thin layer of sand should that be under the tarp first? Or on top? Any suggestions on covering that blue tarp would be nice.
3. And lastly, we are going to use patio pavers/blocks under each leg of the pool frame, leveling each as we go. Probably a very long and tedious process but that is ok. Is that actually a good option for under each leg? And if so, then the tarp would be on top of them correct? ( As question 2 asks how would I then cover that blue tarp?)
I know I may be asking crazy questions but please bear with me over the next few weeks while we are working on this!
