I had all the grass removed from around my pool and replaced it with sand, then placed concrete pavers for folks to walk on. It works great, the only issue is the weeds, we place the black plastic before laying the sand and it has actually been down for 2 years now. We have to spray weed killer and pull weeds each season now before use. Do you have any other suggestions for the ground? I though about having concrete poured but that can get expensive considering the area I would have to cover.

Please help! What if anything do you put between the pool and mulch? Will the mulch puncture the pool?

Quick question. Can you put cement around the wall outside of the pool. Can that damage the wall of the pool. Not sure if it causes it to rust.

Question? Hi Chad, I have quite a bit of sand left over from the installation and the pool is currently surrounded with landscape stones. I'm wondering if I were to mix the left over sand in with the landscape stone, will it create a problem with people getting the sand on their feet and tracking it into the pool?
@abovegroundpros5 жыл бұрын
If there's sand mixed in with the stone and your walk on it with wet feet there's a good chance it will end up getting in the pool and you'll have to vacuum it out.
@ii-ok3jo3 жыл бұрын
Sure use the excess Sand to fill in the spaces of rocky area…just put a small foot rinse pan at level of pool entrance..you can place multiple ones and make them look like part of the pool ..just stone finish with concrete. You could also put concrete thin layer round entrance of pool then place layer of sand on wet cement ..that way sand stays on ground.

I just called this gravel company to order the River stones/ pea size stone for the weed barrier around my pool. They delivered my sand. So she tells me not to us the smaller pea stones they will shoot like a bullet if the weed wacker hits them. So she tells me to use white limestone. So that’s exactly what I did. I have it around our brand new pool. I just read that the white limestone will eat away at the pool! Do you know if that’s factual?

You never want to put white stone at the base of your above ground pool. White stone has calcium in it, the white greasy film on the inside of the plastic bag. That white stuff is calcium, and calcium eats away at the metal ring and the aluminum sidewalls down at the base of your pool. It will weaken the base with little holes until the pool wall fails. If you want the white stone look, use marble chips in bags at the big box stores. They are safe to use and do not contain calcium. There is more to consider than doing what ever you want!
