    Exclamation Now WHAT?!!! Pool Disaster

    We installed a 41x21 oval ourselves last summer. We got to swim for about 3 weeks, then closed for the winter. We obviously didn't do a great job, because over the winter, the ground above the braces settled, and you could see them in the pool bottom. Since the liner was less than a year old, we pulled the liner back, left it attached at the skimmer and return, and re-leveled the sand. I put the liner back around the pool, and used a shop vac to check how everthing layed. Then I started filliing. When the pool was about 1/2 full, the liner pulled away from the wall and is now laying at the bottom with water running under the pool wall. There is about 5 inches of water under my deck. The liner didn't rip at all, it just pulled out from the top rails.

    Now what do I do???
