Hi everyone, I haven't been on much since I posted our pool build July 2015. I had the worst pool builder experience ever, and have since been to court with them. Well - we just had our new pool company open the pool and we have a few issues again. 1. There is rusting on both the railing and...

I had the dealer from Loop Loc come out, and he will give me the cover for our lagoon style pool with jump rock and waterfall for $4500. The only downside is that he will not close the pool which is included with all other quotes. So that makes the cost $4800 in my eyes. Our PB will give us...

Our pool came with the light blue cover held on by the water tubes. I seriously overlooked this when spending way too much time on all the speciifications of the actual pool and othe requipment. All the contract said was winter cover, I didn't even look twice. Can someone please give me...

Ok, so some of you may have followed my build thread, which was not ideal as far as the PB who I used, and they continue to drive me crazy. We received our test kit a few weeks ago and I have posted the results once on my original thread but haven't posted here yet b/c the first month they are...

Again thank God for this forum because my PB never replies to concerns! In our low end there are two areas that the vinyl comes off. They said previously it was because water wasn't in all the way but now pool is completely filled. Should we stop swimming until PB comes out tomorrow - can...

We are filling our vinyl pool today and water is going in as deep end is halfway up the slope...we noticed a small section in deep end where vinyl is not attached. Should we stop filling?

Good morning everyone. My PB called this morning and informed me that today they plan to lay the vermiculite down for the pool. I asked why they are doing it now, since the liner has not come in yet, and they do not expect it to come in for at least a week. I've read that it is risky to lay...

Obviously I should have thought of this question before I started my build. But why do concrete or gunite deep end walls go straight down and vinyl walls are sloped inwards losing square footage?

We are starting this week on our new build! We originally interviewed pool companies for both gunite and vinyl. I loved the flexibility of the gunite but overall, the pricing was almost exactly the same, and I don't like the feel of the gunite on my feet, so we went with the vinyl. I know...

Hi everyone, we are building our pool in the next 30 days. In South Jersey. I have a little girl who is 4, and nieces and nephews very close who will all use the pool. I am currently doing a 18x29x35 lagoon pool to try to maximize the shallow end. I anticipate that we will play volleyball...
