    Pool almost overflowing with ice

    Do not move the ice. Doing so could rip the liner as ice can be "sharp". Best to leave it along for now.

    Pool from the 50s or 60s

    It was a beauty in the pic from the past! I hope you do fix it back up. The cost will really depend if you do the work or use your wallet to have the work done aka hire it out. Keep us in the loop and we can/will help you out to get the beauty back up and running!

    Builders are suggesting an edge pool instead of a traditional skimmer pool. Could they be right?

    New Pool Build - NE OK - Beginning from scratch and looking for design feedback.

    I just went out and measured my stairs. They are 19 1/4" from the center pole to the outer edge. They are not easy to carry things up and down. I wish we had gone quite a bit wider but it is what it is at this point LOL

    Jan 2025 IG pool build in Georgia, need liner re set!!!!

    Not sure if it can be done then. The sun HAS to be shining and the temp at LEAST 60 degrees. This helps the liner stretch to fit the pool sides and bottoms.

    Pool deck patch

    HI and welcome to TFP! I think it would be best if you shared a pic or 2 to show us what you are working with so we can best advise you.
  18. kimkats

    Is this a good price ..

    It does not really matter if they are above or semi so long as there is a deck of some sort to use outside the pool.

    Hi and welcome to TFP! What a fun time for you and yours! What is a RBB? When you say "hand holds" what do you mean? I think I know but what to make sure.

    Just shocked pool not sure how to now get it swimmable

    While you are waiting on your good test kit from Kits – Clear Choice Labs to get there you need to add a gallon of liquid chlorine each day to your pool. This should help keep the green from coming back too bad.

    Got cocky and paid the price

    My "gotcha" is almost always coming on Spring. I don't notice the water temps creeping up so I don't adjust my chlorine dosage. My water starts to lose it's sparkle. OPPS! Run a full set of test and get going with that SLAM! I vow to not let hit happen each year LOL

    30+ years out of usage. Cost to get it going

    Hi and welcome to TFP. Some questions first. Is this a plater or liner pool? Is it holding water at the moment? Does that area get hard freezes often? If so then the pipes could be a worry. The answers to these questions will help us know what needs to be done to get the pool up and running.

    I understand your thinking. I have an idea that I will float by the IT and owners of the site. While I do chat with them I will let you know that we are all volunteers that post/reply to the boards. The only thing that costs anything is the servers and IT guy. That server is a hungry thing for...

    Opinions on this 16x36 sport pool surround please

    I have the same concerns as @bmoreswim with the rocks. While they DO look nice over time they will lose their "looks". Be it kids throwing them or weed growing through them they will not be a long term good thing. Solid surface all the way!
