I'm waiting on a water fill up and want to know how long I can go until my liner gets damaged? I do have about 6 inches in right now. The liner is 40 gauge and labeled as extra thick. Would it help if I put the winter cover on it?

One thing that I didn't mention was that after the excavation the excavator did go over and compacted the whole area with a piece of equipment. So the ground was packed down before the pool was put up. I know it will settle more but this should have helped?

I would say 3 out of 18 are on disturbed ground. And there is nothing down hill except woods then a corn field like 200 yards back. So with all this being said if I get a 2 course retaining wall built will that be enough to prevent the ground from pushing out there? Just not sure if I should...

The pool is 27' round. So the more responses I get the more concerned I am with this pool set up. Am I at the point where I should be starting over? The excavator said he does these all the time in my area just like this and never had an issue.

OK thanks for the advice. I have a company coming out to give me an estimate to build the wall. One other question, my soil is clay. Is that good or bad for my situation?

There is a little bit of fill in that area but like 90% is undisturbed. The pool is getting a deck in July with gates for code. Right now the pool has only like 4 inches of water in it so the wall is kinda pushing in and pulling out in places so I think that is why it looks funny.

Thanks for the reply, do I need a certain type of wall because it's supporting a pool?
