Owning a vinyl pool can be a joy during hot months, providing a refreshing dip in your very own Greenville backyard. However, over time, the vinyl liner can wear out and develop leaks, leading to a decrease in its overall aesthetic appeal and functionality. This is where the process of relining a vinyl pool comes into play. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps involved in relining a vinyl pool, from assessment to completion, ensuring that your pool remains a pristine haven for relaxation. And if you’d rather we do this for you, you can always call Aqua Blue Pools to schedule a service appointment. Our pool techs are here for you 24/7!

Step 1: Assessment and Preparation

Before diving into the relining process, it's important to conduct a thorough assessment of your vinyl pool. Look for signs of wear, tear, fading, and leaks. Make sure you assess the condition of the pool walls, floor, and corners. Once you've identified the areas that require attention, you can begin the preparation process.

Preparation requires draining the pool. This step ensures that the liner can be easily removed without the risk of tearing or damaging it. From here, you can remove the old vinyl liner. Be cautious while doing this to avoid damaging the pool structure. Lastly, you’ll want to completely clean the pool walls and floor and inspect for any signs of damage.

Step 2: Vinyl Liner Selection

This is the fun part! You’ll get to select a new vinyl liner for your backyard pool in Simpsonville. Consider factors such as thickness, color, pattern, and durability. This is also an opportunity to pick a new design! At the end of the day, you want to choose a high-quality liner that will not only enhance the pool's aesthetics but also ensure longevity.

Step 3: Installation and Finishing Touches

The installation process requires careful attention to detail to ensure a seamless and watertight fit. Our pool service team is happy to help here. Our pool techs have years of experience and can help reline your vinyl pool, ensuring it's centered and smooth. Once installed, we can use a vacuum or water pump to remove air pockets to create a snug fit between the liner and the pool walls and floor. We can finalize the installation by attaching the liner to the pool's coping or track. Our pool service experts have experience using both coping strips and locking mechanisms to accommodate your pool structure.

The finishing touches come into play after we’ve refilled your newly relined vinyl pool. We’ll trim any excess liner material that extends beyond the pool's edges, providing a neat and tidy appearance. We can help reinstall accessories and balance the water chemistry as well! Aqua Blue Pools is here to help in any way we can, servicing neighborhoods in Anderson and beyond.
