    Really good video, thank you. Why do you not put a geotextile between the base and walls to protect mixing of earth with backfill?

    Great question. The backfill material is cement stabilised and will harden once washed in with water. Once it has hardened the surrounding earth won't mix with it. Cheers.

    Awesome information. When screeding the bedding, do you screed it to the exact hight of the base of the pool? As in the shallow end may be 600mm shallower, so the height of the bedding would be higher and are these levels being checked with a laser level/dumpy?

    Glad you like the vid! The bedding level should follow the contour of the pool floor using a laser level and be a consistent thickness. A laser level will be your best friend to get this outcome!

    Can I use 5 7 mm agregate on walls backfilling as well as for a bedding material I live in Thailand hard to get some materials. Thanx Ray Faulks

    Hi. In Australia, you can use up to 7mm however the key is to mix in cement to stabilise the material once installed. We don't know about Thailand however with the rain and most likely clay, cement stabilisation will be important at a guess!

    Can you jack hammer up the old pool coping and pool deck tiles without cracking or breaking the fibreglass pool shell?

  • @CompleteFibreglassPoolKits

    @CompleteFibreglassPoolKits

    The coping tiles should be able to be removed without needing a jackhammer. The tiles should only have a thin layer of glue or cement to hold them onto the actual coping beam. A jackhammer anywhere near a fibreglass pool shell is not a match made in heaven!

    Is there a reason why standards/CDC limit bedding material size to 6/7mm and do not use for larger aggregate like road base ?

  • @CompleteFibreglassPoolKits

    @CompleteFibreglassPoolKits

    8 ай бұрын

    Our understanding is to prevent pressure points in the floor of the pool shell that will cause future cracking.

    Hi Daniel. As a general rule, installers do not compact the bedding. It is not a requirement in the AS1829:2021 Fibreglass Pool Installation.
