Default The swimming pool from h---!

Update:

Well had the swimming pool installed by a professional(so I thought) who does work as a sub contrator for the place I bought the pool. Well pool was up and running when he back filled pea stone against it in some spots 2 feet high...that is a no , no per pool warranty, instead of putting in a small retaining wall this is what he did., so that has to be removed., well Sunday I finally got in the pool, and the whole bottom ( it is an above ground pool) has large ruts, and creases so bad It is difficult to vacuum., also some areas where you can feel some thing very hard and somewhat sharp., so he has to take down the pool and re install it., obviously, there is a problem with this installer., as usual he said this is the first pool I have ever had problems like this........Well unfortunately before I knew this was going to happen I had contracted him to put on a deck by the pool and new porch roof., took a home equity loan for all of this, well lets say the roof was a Gable roof and there are issues there along with other issues., so he was very agreeable this morning when I showed him everything and admitted it was bad workmanship and felt his men had hurried . Well so now my yard a complete mess from the excavation and who knows now how long before it can be fixed it will have to wait till the pool is redone., what a mess the dog goes out and is covered in mud., my poor little sadie ( Golden retreiver) she is so out of sorts as her routine is ruined. Needless to say I am dragging., very tired and it was hot and humid all this past week so that didn't help and needless to say me being so upset., over all of this....but I am trying to rest when possible, but I certainly found out one thing I can not take the heat. I just certainly hope he reinstalls this pool accurately..... But thats the news for me right now., hopefully soon I can sit on my deck ( if it don't cave in lol) with a roof over me ( that doesn't leak lol) and go in a pool where my foot don't get stuck in a rut., or have the wall cave in and me float down the corn field (lol), I think that would be a #1 Aflac commercial....lol....Well how is everyone else doing? Take care....all of you, Nancy
