I am looking for some tips regarding the "BACK-FILL" area around the perimeter of the pool.
My pool site required me to remove approx 6" of soil around the back side of the pool and wrapping around to 0" on the front side.
After the pool is set up, I will be faced with the decision of what to fill in between the pool and the 6" ledge of clay.
My first thought is to brace up the edge with a 1"x 6" green treated deck board. Then possible filling in the space around the pool with rock. However, I am thinking 6" of rock is a waste.
Can I back-fill against the pool with sand, poly over the sand, then rock?
