    questions about unlevel pools
    We installed a 16x32 rectangle kayak pool, everything was done but installing the liner. Then we received a ton of rain and now my pool is about 4' unlevel, what is the best solution for this without taking down the entire pool?
    Thanks,
    Jackie

    I hope you mean 4" not 4'. You will need to relevel the sand base. Not much choice except tear down since you can't tilt it up to relevel.

    Sorry, I did mean 4", but as long as my sand is level it will not hurt the integrity of the walls?
    Thanks,

    You need to level the base and walls. Otherwise the water will overflow 1 side and be 4" low on the other side.

    It should never have been on sand to start with, there is your problem. Level it on sand again and you will get this problem again latter. Virgin soil or compacted limestone screening will not shift like sand
