Cutting Coping On An Unlevel Pool


neophyte

Recommended Posts

We've got an unlevel fiberglass pool that has raised up about 3 inches in the shallow end from the normal waterline. I'm talking to pool companies now about what our options are for trying to visually cheat the eye with new cantilevered coping or other options. One person said that he has actually cut the top off of coping in order to bring down the level of unlevelness by a few inches and then put the cantilevered concrete coping over it. I have never heard anyone else mention this technique for dealing with an unlevel pool and was wondering if anyone else has either done this or knows of people who have. I'm wondering if this will make the pool or the decking more vulnerable to structural problems down the road.

Thanks for your input.

Was your pool installed 3 inches out of level, or did it pop up after the deck was poured? I've worked with many fiberglass pools that were out of level 3 inches or more. If you can send me a photo of the problem area I can probably ofer you the right solution. bob@flextile.com
