I've got a question I hope someone can answer, like yesterday! I just had a fiberglass pool installed this weekend. I researched the product, including the manufacturer & the pool installer. We elected to DIY in order to save enough to get everything we wanted in the project. After muddling through many, many setbacks - excavators who backed out at the last minute, one after another and a crane that showed up with a boom approx. 15' too short, we finally got the pool in. Only problem is . . . . . it's not level. there's a difference of 3.5" between the shallow & deep ends. I spoke to the 2 installers at length during the final stages, as the level difference became increasingly evident. I insisted on speaking to the owner before relinquishing the final check. They all basically told me the same thing - it's not uncommon for a fiblerglass pool to be off like that. That you can compensate for it by building up a "tile wall" on the "off" end to make up for the difference. The water line tile goes over that & you're not supposed to even notice when done. Only problems I see with that solution are: How much tile do you think THAT's going to add to the project? AND what happens when the shallow end - the one that is 3.5" HIGHer than the deep end - is kept full enough for the spa jets & skimmer? Seems like the deep end will get flooded, which may result in water seeping down between the outer wall of the shell & the earth below the concrete deck! . I'm thinking that this is NOT a good thing. I don't want to jump to any conclusions without the facts. My deck is scheduled for deck & form next week, but I'm really feeling like the pool needs to be drained, lifted & reset in a more level base before finishing the project. Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks
