I think my liner is close to needing replaced. It is 10-12 years old and it is completely white in several places now. It started off a pretty dark blue from what I can tell above the water line. I have only owned the house for a couple of years so I am still new to this. I can also see that it is beginning to pull out and apply pressure to the coping track. Maybe I'm wrong about needing to replace it soon and if I am, please tell me.
I am not looking forward to the cost of replacing the liner. I have been told it will cost around $4,000 and my pool isn't very large (around 18,000 gallons). I am trying to think of ways to lessen the cost without sacrificing the quality of the liner or the install. I don't think I would be comfortable doing it myself without having done one with someone helping me.
I know the local pool company will charge me an outrageous amount for the liner so I am wondering if I could order the liner myself and then hire the pool company to install it. Has anyone taken this approach before? Do you have any other suggestions to save money? My pool is an irregular shape so I am also wonder how to determine what to order.
Thank you in advance for your help. I am still learning and I appreciate all of the wisdom on these forums.
