This pool originally had a sports bottom, which is shallow on both ends with the deep end in the middle. Customer has had issues since pool was installed, & the pool-Crete was not installed properly. Homeowner asked to reshape the bottom and install new pool-Crete and a new liner. We extended the shallow end by the stairs 2 extra feet and dug out the other side to make it a deep end. Now the pool goes from 3’6” to 5’6”. We replaced the pool-Crete and installed a new vinyl liner. The liner the homeowner picked is a Tara Pools Auamarine W/gold shimmer tones.
