    Thanks to everyone for all of their replies. I am just going to enjoy my pool and not worry about the imperfections. Besides the only time you can see them is at night when the pool light is on. During the day they are virtually invisible. I love this site! It is so helpful. Thanks again, Candy

    He just needed 24 hours to get outta town when you saw all the footprints!

    While it's impossible to leave NO marks, some guys are worse than others. The guys who did our original liner left only a few marks. Unfortunately, 10 days after the install a seam on the liner failed....The liner company paid to have a new one installed but insisted on using local guys--they did the UGLIEST installation in the universe and I've had to put up with it for 8 years as the second liner was much better made. You can see the footprints in the sunlight!

    It will be fine. Your pool will be a nice relaxing place to cool off in on a hot sunny day. Kids playing, splashing and laughing. Lots of childhood memories being made. Enjoy that pool. And quit looking at all the imperfections. We ALL have imperfections in our pool but it doesn't take away the fun and relaxation. Nobody but you will even know they are there unless you point them out. So forget about them. Go swim and have fun! That's an order from "Mom."
