Hi, I've had an above ground pool for about 10years and have always enjoyed it. This year the floor has become a little rumbly from footprints. Is there a way to roll out these lumps without dumping any water ?? Thanks.

No idea.

I suppose you could try using a vinyl roller, but you'd have to clean and dry it really carefully when you finished.

Welcome to the Forum!

I think you are unlikely to be able to correct the floor without removing the liner and re-troweling the base.

How's your liner holding up? At 10 years, you may be close to needing to replace it. If you can deal with the floor until the liner needs to be replaced, that'd be optimal.

Liner has shown no sign of problems and I can not even think about that cost so I 'm looking at options to smooth off the floor so it doesn't feel so lumpy. I didn't understand the post about using a vinyl roller. Could someone explain that to me.?
