Wow, thanks for the quick response. I follow all that, is that standard equipment at a local pool supply house? Thanks again! Is standard glue up Oatey 2366S Pool-Tite PVC Medium Body Hot Blue Cement and Oatey Purple primer? Want to get this repaired, its finally pool season! Thanks again...

Hi, our pool plumbing is 3 years old, we have a small leak at a valve coupler shown in the picture. Our pool contractor was a huge disaster so calling him is not an option. I still question what else may be wrong. Anyway, looking for thoughts on this repair. I know I need a new ball valve...

Could you take some pictures of the inside top of edge of the coping, we ordered about 80 linear feet of the Rafinnati Smooth and it has an odd looking inset radius, our vendor doesnt know and not getting a response from techo bloc. Thanks

Wonder if anyone has a good list of integrated cover vendors. We are getting a Latham Corinthian 14 and want to get an Automatic Cover, over course looking at Latham's but would like to read about other vendors to compare. I see Automatic Pool Covers out of Indiana, but aren't see anyone else...

There has been quite a bit of discussion and investigation here and I believe we have come to a plan that will result in a proper look but before I lay it out for thoughts, I wanted to ask this If the pool is removed and reset, is there a possibly of getting a flat surface with the top of the...

It was flowable fill, that names come back to me now, I think there was two loads (Up to the sun deck; but that is a guess); it was three trips of the water truck to fill. I dont know about why their isnt a collar of concrete, I am learning as this goes, so it would be seem to me the PB is...

Thanks for the additional insight, there is no tile on the waterline, we decided not do to that for astatic reasons. We are also having a CoverStar Automatic Cover installed via the PB so I have an additional set of concerns about that operating properly (ie jamming, etc). The pool is...

Allen, thanks for the response, at the moment I am just trying to asses if this is a proper install and if work should proceed, my intuition was it is not. The PB was here today and is working to figure out what can be done other then remove and resetting, although that is the final solution if...

This is a gross exaggeration but black is perimeter of top of pool, green line is level line. Top of Pool is Flat and Level, this is the best end result, the top of a pool forms a plain so any point inside the permeator of the pool is inline with the perimeter. Top of Pool is Flat, but pool...
