Pool pooped out of ground

Postby bigjohn1971 » Wed 10 Jul, 2019 16:48

Hello everyone. This my issue. I being the brainiac that I am I decided to acid wash my pool so I drain it and dont pop a hole in bottom to relieve pressure. I know I know ( now). To late my pool popped out at least 3 feet out of ground due to rain being so close to Oldsmar bay across the street to be exact. i am pretty sure I am screwed and need a new pool. Some had advised to cut and level with low side. I have heard of injecting a material underneath to raise it, but thats probably for porches and minor foundation repairs. Anybody have any advise. And whats the going rate to rip out pool and put in new. Thanks in advance everyone. I am so stressed. " daddy when are we going to have a pool again".

They can raise buildings and airport runway's with that foam, I would not write it off as a possibility.

My sympathy as it happened to me.
Mine was relativley simple as it was fibreglass and I could lift it out albiet a lot of work
