    2ft wide by 3ft high ditch around the front and sides of the pool
    Hello,
    We had an above ground pool installed 3 weeks ago and now there is a 2ft wide by 3ft high ditch around the front and sides of the pool and we are not sure what to do with it. We were told to do nothing for at least 2 weeks to let everything settle. Then we were told we could backfill with the dirt dug from the pool up to 12 inches around the pool but that really does nothing to help the situation. We are planning to get a deck built next year but for now we have no ideas. We also have rain water pooling up in the ditch. Any suggestions would be great.
    Thank you,

    Personally, I'd call the installer and tell them to come finish the job.

    I agree with the previous comment. If you do anything yourself you relieve the installer of any liability and it sounds like they did not finish their job.
