    Default Re: Looking for someone to replace pool liner

    Waste,
    Thanks for replying, I was hoping you'd see this post...

    I had not asked him about replacing faceplates or re-leveling the sand floor, but I will when the guy comes out. He is going to measure it, that's why the ballpark quote but requires a visit here before giving a "real" quote. The walls are lined with this thick polymer shell that came in pieces and fit together like a giant puzzle, so there's no place for foam, if that's what you were referring to. I am assuming I will be responsible for re-filling the pool--I had to fill it when it was installed and it never occured to me that somebody else may do it--My water is almost perfect chem-wise anyway, so I prefer to do that myself even if they offer it

    Thanks for the suggestions........

    Edit: Another prospect returned my call after I posted the above, and quoted me $2450, tax included. His business is strictly pool liner installation/repair/leak detection, etc...not pool liner installation as an addition to selling/designing/servicing all the other types of pools. Gave me all the right answers to the above questions, including that he replaces return eyeballs and skimmer face plates and will smooth out the bottom and do patchwork as needed on the floor as part of the deal. (This guy is familiar with the company that put my pool in and reminded me that instead of sand on the bottom, they use a sand/concrete mixture that sometimes has to be patched in places. I had forgotton that...) Since my hubby is an investigator, we looked up this guy and his business with every resource that we had available and could find nothing negative anywhere, including in civil court for the surrounding parishes. He's been in business since 1988. Any red flags going up for you? I have no reason not to trust him, although I don't really trust anybody, but this is a lot of money to throw away....
