Hello, We are in Long Island, NY and our semi-inground pool from pool factory(Melenia model) is being installed in a couple of weeks. The installer is recommending we put up a retaining wall made of pressure treated wood after pool install before backfill so that the backfill doesn’t sit against the pool wall. He doesn’t do it himself but suggested we contact a handyman. I am having a tough time visualizing what it would like so I can describe it correctly to the person who will do the work. Is it made of plywood? The install guy said it can just be 2x4 with a rebar stuck into the ground. But I am not clear on how that will prevent the soil from going in between the spaces and touching the pool wall. It is not going to be visible outside so we don’t need to worry about the aesthetics of it.
If anyone here has done something similar, and can show me pictures or links, I would really appreciate it.
thanks
