Thanks again. I would consider it a gradual drop to the 1 3/4" mark. Only one spot really registers this height and then it gradually drops in either direction to the lowest point.
Is there anything I should watch for that may signal trouble? i don't think he went more than a few inches into the ground for leveling so I would not have a large backfill around the outside.
On a side note, we have the Artesian Emerald Isle

Thanks

Mike

It also depends on the amount of dirt backfilled around the outside of the pool. A pool one foot in the ground could easily be six inches out of level and be just fine.
