Hi! I'm a first time pool owner and unfortunately I was just told that my pool is sinking. I bought this house less than a year ago and according to the paperwork I found, the pool was put in 10 years ago. I noticed a leak shortly after we moved in and they replaced a part on the pump and it was fine. It started to leak again a couple of weeks ago and they told me it was because there is pressure being put on the plumbing from the walls which are off level by 2.5".
I had a soil stabilization company out and the estimate to fix this is around $7000 (!) with no guarantee that it will last or that the pool or plumping won't be damaged in the process. I'm in Central Texas and the ground is clay. I'm a bit shocked at the cost and I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with this and what they did about it.
The yard is on a hill so the pool walls are exposed. I'll attach some pics.
