Hello, again, pool forum!
My above ground pool (that was already installed at the house that I purchased ten years ago) has a tear in the liner, above the water line, parallel to the ground and about 2 feet in length. I decided to purchase another liner, but the problem is that upon measuring, we found my pool to be a non-standard diameter - 19 feet 10 inches! Has anyone heard of a pool in this range of size? I have called four pool stores. Most aren't willing to help at all. A couple have offered a custom made liner, were supposed to check on pricing, but have not returned my call.
What are my options? Is a patch even possible at this point? If that would work, I'd go that route for a while, as I am getting ready to be gone for 6 weeks and close friends were going to take care of and use the pool while I was gone, as they did last summer.
