    Beautiful pool reno. I only question the "tamping" of the soil prior to pouring the concrete. That's the one thing that can come back to haunt you down the line..hopefully not though but next time rent a Tamper so you know the soil is compacted properly.

    Hi, thanks for making this video! My husband and I are in the exact same position and can’t get a company to come out so I’ve thought to do it myself. I’d love to know if you guys had and cracks or holes in the bottom of the pool not just around the sides? If so can you tell me what product you used to patch those holes? Our pool has several cracks and even a couple of holes from being abandoned for so long and I’m unsure of what to use to fix it, the bottom of ours appears to be concrete with vinyl sides rather than metal like yours. Thanks in advance for your response!

    • @aspenackley
      @aspenackley  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi Heather! It will depend what to use because there are different types of concrete that have traditionally been used for the base of pools. Ours was a vermiculite based concrete so Andrew had to mix vermiculite, sand and Portland cement. You can usually tell if it's vermiculite if you can push your nail in and it leaves a dent with almost gold/shiny flakes in it. Hope that helps!!

    I cant understand why people go for a in-ground liner pool?? If you want a pool so badly, save a bit more and get a concrete pool that will out last anything else. Hell, get a glass fibre pool, they also cheaper and fairly durable.

    I have never seen a metal sided pool with a tarpaulin lining before, is that common in the US? What does the liner cost and are they custom? also how long will that last as surely the sun and chlorine weakens and bleaches it?

    • @LaSombraa
      @LaSombraa ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don’t think pool liners are often at all in the US. Maybe in areas where it gets super cold and the water freezes a lot, it can probably weaken a concrete pool overtime and lead to fractures.
