I called around everywhere and no one will touch it. Although I was told they would be happy to help me with a NEW pool. I found two fiberglass guys who repaired pools and was given estimates between 2700-3100 just to fix the crack. After the bulging and crack etc I started to think about having it removed. So I got some quotes on the removal of shell and patio around it that were between 10 to 15k. And did not include repairing the ground itself.

At that point I was like well... it holds water. Worst case it caves in. Fast forward to today and it's still there and intact, well outside of the crack and wall bulging. So two weeks ago I bought a large transfer pump, grinder and all the materials to fiberglass it. There is a stand alone pipe that runs under it and I used my smaller transfer pump on it previously and noticed the water level drops in the pool itself. That gives me a bit of hope that I can drain via the underside and lower the water around the shell helping keep the hydro-static pressure down. I also plan on putting in a few supports.

So I figure why not give it a shot, I don't have much to lose. lol
