Our pool has a large, lovely flagstone waterfall. The problem is that its large weight is causing the concrete on the edge of the pool to move. Because this end of our property is backfilled, it appears impossible to simply jack it up with piers.

Sooooo-- the question is this-- Where might we find a faux-rock waterfall ? We've seen small ones, but we're looking for a large one-- 4-5 ft tall and 6 ft across to fill the same corner.


Thanks--

We used rico rock, our pool builder was experienced with it. We love it!!

No matter what you install on unstable soil you are going to have problems. Call in an engineer to give you advise. Yes an engineer will cost money but it is worth it so you don't end up tearing out another water feature.
