    Default My vermiculite bottom has craters.

    I have a new inground pool, and I am unhappy with the pool bottom. There are 2 craters on the bottom. One is about 3 inches in diameter, and the other is about 4 or 5 inches. Both are approximately a half inch deep.

    I have read that all bottoms have many imperfections, and these craters are only visible when the pool light is on. Should I complain, and if so, is the pool company obligated to fix them?

    Are you willing to drain and refill the pool? That's what it would take to fix it!

    What does your contract guarantee?
