So there will be an inch of empty space. I may get dig edging and dig it to 2 inch high and put small rocks toward the front and...

    Pool Backfilling Recommendation

    For those who are in a limbo like me. I called my installer and he said to avoid direct dirt, it will cause corrosion. He did said use tar paper or 6 mil plastic as a barrier in between wall and foreign product (soil, sand, or rocks). So you want to cut the size of 6 mil and wrap around the...
