    Brace a fiberglass pool for repair??

    We have some cracks and bulging in our fiberglass pool--our pool contractor said that a Viking manufacturer rep. will be in next Tuesday. He told us to drain the the water down and to brace the pool with 2x4s so the rep. could take a look at the pool damage. We have no idea how to do this--I...

    Fiberglass pool crack--could it be leaking?

    I'm actually hoping it is that crack--the pool company will fix it if it is. Either way I'm having come out and take a look at this crack. I think it needs to be repaired even if it is not leaking.

    Fiberglass pool crack--could it be leaking?

    We have a Viking fiberglass pool--when we went to check on the water level under the winter cover we discovered it was really low. I knew something was up, because we usually have to pump several times during the winter with the rain and snow. We added water and we figure it's losing about 3-4...

    Alien Blobs in my pool!!!

    Can someone please tell me what this slimy stuff is? They started out like little pea size blobs attached to sides of pool. Now I have this slimy stuff around all my outlets. Here's a pic of what I peeled from my skimmer.

    Pump--Strange Scraping Sound?

    Every now and then our pump will make a strange scraping sound, it lasts for a few minutes and then it stops. It's pretty loud and repetitive, but it usually stops on it's own or I can turn the pump off and start it up and no sound. I would say it's doing it a couple of times a day. Is...

    What's your current pool temp?

    Iggy--I cannot imagine 108 degrees. Here in Louisville we sometimes get in the low 100's and with all of our humidity you think your skin is going to melt right off of your body.

    Pool Fence Pictures need ideas

    We had a pool dilemma last year also. We had an existing vegetable garden that was fenced in a picket type fence. I definitely did not want to get rid of the vegetable garden, one of the reasons for the pool was to have something cool to jump in after a hard days work. For insurance and...

    Ky. Pool Pics

    I was waiting for us to finish the shade garden landscaping, but with the heat it may be awhile. So I'm showing you our pool anyway. It was installed late last summer and we've spent most of the spring getting the landscape finished. It's a Viking Baja with a sapphire blue finish. I...
