Hello everyone
I have a 27 foot above ground pool. The previous owner did not take care of it and allowed the skimmer to leak profusely, so now I have a section where the metal is completely gone, and the liner is showing through. It is not leaking now, I had someone come out and fix the leak.
The problem is that the liner is showing through and I am worried about rough housing in the pool near the skimmer and busting it. It is a metal skeleton, and I want to know what I can do to fix the pool. I just cut the pool on for the summer, but I do not mind pumping the water out again and fixing the metal, then refilling.
What can I do in this situation? The size of the problem is a little over half a dollar bill in length, and half the width of a dollar bill. Can post pictures if needed.
Is this as easy as spraying Flex Seal over the hole? LOL!!! or Rustoleum stop rust LeakSeal?
The pool guys that came out said the pool is probably going to be replaced in less than 5 years, but previous owner said it just had a new liner, so I would like the pool to last as long as possible. I've got no money in the pool aside from a $350 leak fix, and chemicals, but I would like to have a cheap and fixed solution.
Please advise, thanks !!
All the blue you see in the bottom pictures is the liner.
