So quick background on my new pool build
During installation the liner was too big so they had to stop at 2 Feet of water and drain and replace the liner
2nd liner was installed without an issue in size but the 5" of back fill I laid around the pool turned into clay mud due to all the rain we had during may in Cleveland.
I think what happened is the mud pushed the bottom track in in spots and they did not remove the backfill in enough spots (They dug up probably 10 sections worth of backfill along the edges and pulled the track out by hand when they were fitting the 2nd liner
So now I have columns that are not in alignment with each other
I sent these pictures to the installer and he claims that the reason the wall seam can be seen behind the support is due to the Aluminum roll being too tight out of the box (I'm not totally sold at this point) Can these pillars be corrected without having to drain again?
Your advice please
Thanks
Dan
