Pool Wall Busting

I recently bought a home and the pool was in bad shape but got up and running and crystal blue. The problem is that I have noticed the side of it has collapsed.

Well, as you can see the outside wall has busted and is now poking out the bottom. Is this in need of a whole new pool or is it replaceable. Thanks for taking a look.

Hi Steve. You have a very old Home and Rome pool. You would never be able to find parts for it so my advise would be to replace it. The wall is definitely beyond repair.

The first thing you need to do is get the water out of the pool. It is about to burst and you will have thousands of gallons of water all over your yard, all at one time.

If the filter and other equipment are still in good condition you could probably find a good year end sale on just the pool. Used pools sell pretty cheap this time of year also. The end of the season is the best time to buy a pool.
