We have a pool and the liner was replaced last year. The pool was built sometime in the mid 80s and the sidewalls are definitely plywood, I saw them when the liner pulled away from the coping a bit.

The pool is about 40 ft by 12-14 ft with a 9ft deep end.

Just planning for the future and expenses:

Are there common life times for the walls?

When the walls are gone, is it a 10k fix or a 2-5k fix? Is it fixable at all?

My assumptions are you do it when the liner fails and replace panels as needed, but things aren't always that simple.

Tried searching and couldn't find much.
 
I think you will find it difficult to impossible to find anyone who will take on repairing/replacing wood pool walls. Keep it going as long as you can. When you need to replace the wood walls you will be building a new pool with the associated costs.

There are threads discussing wood walls. Here are some...
