Thanks John. Is it hard to get the liners to fit perfectly asking because I have been in many pools where the liners are like badly fitted like the picture ore that the bottom is like sagging
It depends on how precisely the pool was made and how exactly the measures are taken before making the liner, for example my pool isn’t perfectly symmetrical, so the liner measurements have to be taken from reality not just a calculation otherwise it won’t fit properly. Not a problem I had thought about before, since the pool I grew up with was tiled and the problem didn’t arise.
I have not seen many tiled pools now days it’s like they are not popular anymore
They are much more expensive, short-term, and you need a specialist tiler as well as special tiles. And I don’t suppose liner pools existed 50 or more years ago. They are lovely though, little glass mosaic type tiles give the most beautiful effect.

Myself I like the new raw concrete pools ore the lime stone ones but the are crazy expensive
I would love to rip out my pool and make a natural pool instead but as I have the ancillary costs of higher education for several children to deal with, it’ll just have to wait.
I have been looking at them too but are expensive to
Pools are expensive one way and another, whatever you do.

Thats true in the garden where I just bought my house they started doing a pool it’s only the hole for it maybe a put in to natural pool do I have to pay taxes on a natural pool do you now?
The natural pool thing, I really believe it is the quality of the landscaping which makes them look better. Boring old hard pools compared to garden integated landscaping and planting. pool have a range of really good looking liners these days compared to standard blue. Natural stone, slate and marble with textured finished.
