This is a picture showing a completed
cement hard bottom. This is an option which is at first, seems expensive, but benefits are
incredible. A typical pool would have a sand base for its floors and slopes. As the pool
gets used, the floor and slopes will develop indentions and footprints. It usually takes a
few years for the water pressure inside the pool to compress the sand base. This is normal
wear and tear on a sand based vinyl lined pool and is most evident at night when your turn
on your pool light. The bottom of your pool can eventually look cratered like the moon's
surface.
By upgrading to a full hard bottom, your pool floor and slopes will maintain its
smooth lines and texture. Besides the visual benefits of a cement hard bottom, the other
benefits for your liner include- increased protection against ant/termite damage,
protection from issues dealing with high groundwater or poor soil conditions, and
increased protection against tree roots and rocks possibly damaging your liner. Also,
liner replacement costs are less. We charge less to change a liner with a hard bottom than
a sand based bottom that needs to be re-troweled.
