    Thanks Waste. We reshot the pool from several points. It is from 1/4" off to 1/2" off in places. PB claims that it is only 1/4" off with his level. Hydra Pools tech department feel as you do that structurally the pool should be fine. I agree, now is the time to do a quick fix, if we are going to, but hubby thinks the PB will walk off the job. PB told hubby today that we questioned and second guessed him more than any customer in 30 years, and that he has never wanted to walk off a job any worse than he has ours . This intimidated hubby dear. So, I think DH plans to let PB continue to work and complete the job-- then address any complaints. I will try to change his mind and get him to ask about putting shims in the coping. DH doesn't want PB to quit before we get our mechanical equipment and 1000 sq ft of concrete decking. We will owe him a few thousand bucks when he is finished, but if my husband will let me, I will negotiate a lesser fee because of the appearance loss. If the liner didn't draw attention to the lack of level, it would be a mute point. But it does, and I think we at least need compensation for that. Thanks for giving me ideas on what is a fair amount. I will keep you posted. Anyone out there got any suggestions for what to use for shims? This forum is tops!
