The pool was built around 2007 or 2008, I think. I'm still trying to find the pool builder. I got the property through foreclosure and the original owner has fled the area. The pool is Gunite and around 28k gallons. The reason for the dirt is landscaping. In some areas around the pool, the ground is not even. I was going to put some dirt and grass seed and level it out. On the end of the pool with the diving board (near the pump), it drops off pretty good and makes it hard to cut the grass on a slant. I think erosion has occurred a little and I want to build it back up a little.
Also, on the areas right next to the decking, I plan to unload the dirt in a wheel barrel and haul to those spots. The closest the tractor will be to the pool is probably 10 feet or so.
These are some older photos I took before I opened the pool. The area looks alot better now, but I'm not out there to take any new photos. I will tonight. Just wanted to get some out.....these may not be the best to answer my question.
One more thing. As you can probably see, there are some pine trees near the pool (I'm guessing 30 to 40 feet). Any concern about the roots of the trees growing into the pool?
Thanks,
