Yep, got ours from Namco as well. It was a great deal and the size we wanted. We bought a used pool last year that was only a few years old but even a few years will change what you see once you tear it down. We ended up selling that and holding out for this pool (just watched the prices)...

dmanb2b, I have the same exact pool as you and currently putting it up. When I spoke to the inspector and explained that the uprights and bases for them are all plastic, he was not sure what I should do. I told him I would review it and when he comes out for the 1st inspection he can set me in...

You will hear very loudly to dig out the high side. Yes, you should do this and not build up. However if you must do this it is possible. Maybe just as much work and more expensive though. If you build up, sand will not work. You will need to use something like stonedust (crushed granite or...

What is Screening? I used 2-8 inches of stonedust (pulverized granite) compacted with a commercial plate compacter. I also have rocky soil and removed a lot of rocks (hence the inconsistent depth of base. I mighht order a small amount of sand to spread out. The stonedust is ok but not as...

Should the padding material go under it or over the cove pcs? Also, do most use a masonry sand under the gorilla pad?

Well water and it is shared with rules. One of them being no filling pools. Well, spent most of the day leveling those blocks. They are now 100% level from one to the next and all the way around. Rain put a stop to our plans to put it up this afternoon.

Hear you. 12 years on a liner though is really good. I would not worry about it if it has lasted that lone. I used a laser level for my blocks and thought that would keep me in the perfect. Guess not. :hammer: I love my water level that I made and going back to using that. Water will never lie...

So I will be the new DIY Pool Poster for why you don't want to rush it. I found some of my blocks were not an even height from one to the next. And the pool is an inch out of round in a couple of spots. I'm sure I could have filled this and if I never told you, nobody would have known. Except...

Thanks. I guess I should check it for round again. I did check for round over and over but as the verticals went up one or two may have moved in the process as we put in the padding and liner. I know that when I put the top pcs on one side of the pool was tighter near the section that ties to...

I have spent the better part of June leveling an area for our 24'x54" foot round pool. I pitched to the center about 2" evenly. Used stone dust (pulverized granite) for my bast and packed with a plate compacter. Measured, measured, measured over and over. Did the same with leveling, etc. All...

OK, here is what I did. My 1st thought was to dig a deeper hole on the side of it and roll it in. However, this rock is roughly the size of a compact care (seriously) so that was not happening. I ended up patiently slicing slits into the top of it with a diamond masonry blade and with a...

I picked the most level spot in my yard and still found a few rocks. One of them is not coming out. I have a small tractor and was able to remove a few up to 20 inches in diameter. Most were on one side of the pool which is where the last one resides the size of a small planet. I plan to drill...
