This forum never ceases to amaze me, so fingers crossed...
We returned from holiday yesterday to find out that when our Greyhound fell into my in-laws swimming pool just before our holiday, she managed to slice through the vinyl lining.
We store our caravan at the in-laws, and whilst we we washing it ready for our holidays, she managed to escape from the front garden, and somehow got into the garden where the pool is.
Fortunately my Father-in-Law heard her fall in, and was able to fish her out quickly. The pool was covered at the time and so it could have been a very different story - fortunately she was fine, and not the least bit shook up.
The water has been leaking for a few weeks now and has started to wash away the sand which is beneath the lining; slightly subsided and almost empty it's looking very sorry for itself.
I need to check to see if OUR household insurance will cover the repair/replacement of THEIR pool with some kind of indemnity cover, but there's a good chance I might have to pay.
My Father-in-Law has been Googling and it seems repairs to side walls can be done, but it's best get a new liner if it on the base (close to).
Anyone got any experience of selling, installing, or repairing this type of swimming pool, who can offer some advice or point us towards a good deal should we need a replacement?
