First off I would like to say this was kind of an impulse buy. They had pulls on sale half off and my family talked me into it. Ins an Intex Above ground 17 feet by 52 inches pool. I am very naive to pools and never have taken care of them. We start by getting home excited and set the pool on a very bad angle (like 10 inches) and we joked about thinking it was ok we could have a"shallow end" and "deep end". Never ever in my life did I realize what a pain this would be. First off, I guess it was my mistake that I never knew how important it was to have a level pool. I figured a little off who cares. The box says up and ready in 45 minutes.....LIES. lol. I noticed how bad the "deep end" legs were suffering so we drained the whole pool, and moved it back to a flatter area. so we move it back to a flatter area of yard and think that's almost level, and we build the high end up with some pavers and wood. Get this filled and see its off about 5 inches too. I then was paying attention and realized how much the high end legs were moving and were scared they would fall off the pavers. Then I found this site and read how important it really is to have this level. I definitely do not want my kids getting hurt so much to my disgust I drained the pool AGAIN. So as I said its about 5 inches off and read i want to tear down high side and not add to low side, so we moved pool again and started this. Borrowed a small rototillers from a friends and started digging up grass and trying to work down the high end. I bought pavers to put under each leg and am just going crazy. Did the board with the level attached to it and spinging around, and its just not working. I put the first paver in ( dug it into the ground and got it level on the low end) and figured I could go from there. I cant even get the second paver level with it? Is this not how do do it? I have a 4 foot level and putting it on my level paver then other half where the next leg is supposed to go on that paver, and just this work alone took about 5 hours. Basically all i got done is the grass torn up and one paver in. Got me and the wife bickering over this, and pulling our hair out, please help me with anything, I thought a pool was supposed to be fun and relaxing. haha
Thanks in advance
