    How far under the pool is the void? What caused the void? Is the pool leaking? Do you have foam cove or was it built up with sand?

    Void? Im guessing that you mean earth under the pool that's not there. Its only at the rail it doesn't look like its any farther, fome cove. The base is made of 8" of crusher rock dust compacked.

    If you can clean out the channel in the bottom rail and work it back onto the wall, you could tamp more crusher underneath to get the rail back in place. I wouldn't dig for fear of dropping the rail more. Probably should also address whatever cleared it out in the first place. Also some sort of backfill to keep it from happening again.

    Good luck, let us know how it's going. Welcome to Pool Forum.
