Hi folks, I am looking for some guidance in regards to fixing my inground pool. I noticed our pool was leaking and our pool liner was getting worn out so decided its time to fix things up. When i cut out the liner, i saw there were parts on the concrete that is black and deteriorating, and even breaks off pieces when i hose it down with water. Im guessing the leakage is from here. How would I go about cleaning these areas and sealing them up? What would be the best products to use?
After couple online searches, it seems like an acid wash using hydrochloric acid on those areas and sealing with hydraulic cement is my best bet?
I also read that leaving an inground pool drained might cause the the pool to float. Im really hoping this doesnt happen, and i can get this done and my liner ASAP so i can refill the pool. My pool liner should get here next week, so i want to get everything sealed and dried before it gets here.
Ive included photos for reference. Any kind of tips/help will be greatly appreciated!
