Hey all! I have a 24 foot round pool with a loose liner around the whole pool. We recently had a tornado and some of our neighbors metal shed, along with other various debris, ended up in our pool. Fast forward two weeks later and the entire liner is loose like a very wrinkley old person skin. The sides are wrinkled and everything. The liner is about 3 years old. My fear is this may mean a liner replacement instead of patch. Is that indeed the case or can a patch be put in and vacuum pulled to pull the liner back in place?

Hard to tell as we've had a ton of rain. I'll go look in a bit. Pretty sure there's a leak in there. My question is if the leak is found is there an easy way to suck out the air/water behind the liner and set it back tight how it should be?

Honestly I'm not entirely sure but there's definitely a leak. Most of this is tied up in insurance "heck" right now. So have to wait for that to get settled before I can really go any further. I have a family friend that is a pool installer/maintainer and also spoke with another business in town. They both said the damage is not worth repairing/patching
Thankfully an above ground liner replacement isn't nearly as expensive as I thought it would be. The hardest part was finding someone in the area that would actually do it. We only have one company in our entire region that does that. Anywho hoping this is done before the summer or hurricane season at least!
