Hey there FTP !!
We are forging ahead with our crazy project! We bought the pool a couple weeks ago before we went on holidays. Now we are back and trying to decide if we have time to get this all done before its too late to swim in this summer. We live in southeast British Columbia. Our weather is pretty volotile... Sometimes snow in may, sometimes temps balmy. Same with October... So season could be over as early as sept 15th.
My questions for you pool veterans, especially those who have frame or ultra frame pools is this...
How long did it take you to :
Level the ground
Assemble the pool
Fill the pool (ours is 13x24 foot rectangle 52" deep)
Then if you built a deck how long did that take?
We are having ground dug out about 2.5 feet and over dig about the same so we can assemble pool in the hole with sloped edges of hole either self supporting or we will do some retaining wall work. Hoping to avoid this step if feesible. Friend with excavator doesn't think That we will need retaining wall will the type of ground we have.
That is all for now!!
Thanks for your advice
