How Do You Repair A Torn Swimming Pool Liner?
Vinyl swimming pools offer many hours of backyard entertainment for your family. No matter how careful you are, though, at some point the vinyl pool liner may need a pool patch kit to take care of either a small tear or a pinhole leak. While the patch may not last indefinitely, it should at least get you through the end of the swimming season when you can drain the pool and replace the liner. The pool patch kit may actually last for several years depending on the size of the hole in the vinyl pool liner. Assess the damage to your swimming pool. Locate the hole or holes. If you are doing a patch job, you need to find all the leaks. Determine if the leaks are above or below water. This makes a difference in the type of patch you purchase. Also decide if you can lower the water level enough to repair the vinyl pool liner dry. Do not attempt to drain the pool more than a couple inches to repair the liner because this may cause the pool walls to collapse. Purchase the appropriate pool patch
