I have some good news!

I mentioned in my earlier post, i had a standing puddle of water surrounding my concrete deck. My pool is surrounded with a top layer of river rock over hard soil. It was my thinking that if i could possibly eliminate some of that surface water it would help.

So, as soon as it stopped raining, which luckily we did not get much today, i took my pool vacuum hose, hooked it up to my wall skimmer, and set the end down into a little makeshift ditch I had made in the rocks. The ditch immediately filled up with water and stuck the end in it. I set my pump on half and half, and kept on filter; half the water was coming from my deep end and the other half from this ditch in the rocks.

it was my thinking that I could try to just transfer the water from outside of my liner to inside my liner at a slow pace by just drawing the water to this side of my concrete deck that seems to hold alot of water. Without removing my liner at all.

I didnt expect the results i got! COMPLETE FIX WITHIN 3 HOURS! I just let the hose continue to draw water and it kept pouring into the hole, it seems to have drawn and transfered all the water outside my liner, to inside equalizing the pressure. Once it was dry ditch drawing no water i stopped.

While it was doing this, i did as you mentioned, and by hand kept pushing wrinkles out slowly from bottom to top.

It surprised me that this worked, but it did-I put a picture on here of how i dug my ditch in the rocks (was barely 4 inches deep) and then laid the end of the hose in the water. the water that was drawing was amazingly clear, so like i said i went ahead and had it running through my skimmer then filter.

The end result after the hose was no longer drawing any water was just three little tiny wrinkles, but they really seem to still be small bubbles in two of my corners, bout 3 inches long--i need to work those out, but unbelievable that my walls and floor are back to ok and normal-NO BULGES!

I will keep you posted if this does not hold, but thankfully we are expected to have somewhat dry weather the next couple days.

thank you all for your help so far, I appreciate it!
