POOL LINERS

Pool Liners

Pool liner repair is something that every pool owner is faced with at one time or another if you own a pool for a number of years. The idea of repairing minor issues with your liner is a lot more appealing than spending money on removing and replacing with an expensive new liner. In some cases some minor repairs will be sufficient and we'll explain how you can try to fix it without breaking the bank. 

If you have a damaged liner it could be caused by any number of reasons but the most common culprit is improper installation. If the liner wasn't fitted properly and has air pockets unfortunately its a matter of time before a tear or sagging will occur. The best time to deal with this issue is before damage occurs but we'll discuss this below. 

A liner should last 10-20 years with regular usage before it starts to fade or break down. A properly balanced pool will help extend the length of the liner and keep it looking as good as new. A yearly cleaning will also extend the life of your liner in addition to keeping your pool clean and healthy. 

The common repairable problems pool owners encounter are wrinkles and sagging edges which are a symptom of an improperly sized or installed liner. Another common issue is a rip or tear in the vinyl fabric that is often caused by a sharp object or stress from improper installation. Liner damage often occurs in the corners where the liner is stretched the tightest and most susceptible to damage.  

If the damage is extensive we recommend hiring a pool service professional that is trained in pool liner repair and they will also be able to advise you if the problem is beyond fixing and you need a replacement liner.
