Hello Everyone -
I have an above ground pool that's been up for 2 years. I had some sand washout under the liner and a section of the sand cove. I added a "french drain' around the pool to stop this from happening again. I just purchased Perfect Bottom and foam cove to help if I do get some more water flow under the liner. I have a 54" 25 mil unibead liner. I know the best thing to do is replace this but.... should I be okay, draining the pool over night and repairing the bottom, installing the Perfect Bottom and Cove and reinstalling the liner. I don't think the liner will be out of the water for 10 hours. I have heard many pool companies will do a quick repair under a liner by draining and pulling the liner back then putting the liner right back.
Thoughts? Might I be able to pull it off?
Thanks,
Rich
