Rebuilding the Pool ~ Pt. 2

Pool Rebuild ~ May 2016

This old party tank nestled next to the Jock River, in the heart of Richmond, Ontario, was in need of some help. The walls were collapsing and the liner had payed it's dues.

Just the kinda dirty work my partner and I couldn't turn down.

We had our work cut out for us. Not literally... So we started by cutting the liner out to reveal the bottom. The grout needed some patch work but we left that for later and got strait to the good stuff ~ digging that long wall out by hand, the good ol' fashioned way!

Body Break

A day and a breaker rental later, we have the wall exposed and concrete broken out. The A frames had snapped so we replaced them after bracing and straitening the walls.

A little concrete, plumbing, backfill and we'll be in good shape

Meanwhile, a malfunction of sorts had jacked up the good folks at the factory and our new liner was not going to arrive for weeks... On the upside, it gave us plenty of time to patch the bottom up nice and get a few other jobs underway. When liner day finally arrived and all was said and done, the customer was very pleased with our work, so much so that it got us a couple more jobs on the same street (one commencing next spring.)

To be continued

Stay Up,
