Hi everyone,
I have an old inground pool that I inherited from the previous home owner who patched their (very old) liner in one spot. As I was looking into replacing the liner with a new one I noticed that the floor has an irregularity which seemed to be close to the spot where the old liner was patched. So I'm wondering if that was the root cause of the hole in the liner.
Unfortunately I didn't think of taking a picture when I opened it up but the floor looks like concrete to me but it is generally smooth looking like someone "painted" it with cement on top. That particular spot seems to have that top part removed so you can see "normal" concrete with small rocks in it. I think some of those rocks have edges sticking out that are sharp enough to damage the liner.
What kind of top layer is normally put on concrete pools floors and what's the best option for repairing that?
Thanks!
