Since LinerLux, Inc. and David Reed have replaced my pool liner TWICE since I have had my pool, I wanted to give them a big THUMBS UP on the job that they do. My pool is now 25 years old. In my experience the vinyl liners last about 8-9 years before they bleach out from the sun or just begin to get brittle due to chemicals.
In any event, David Reed at LinerLux has replaced my liner twice and has done a great job. He has plenty of high quality liner designs and colors to choose from. David is a very detailed person and he measures your pool with the latest equipment. For me, that is VERY important since I have a kidney shaped pool.
When they replace your liner, they do repairs on the vermiculite which is the foundation of your pool under the vinyl. They replace ALL gaskets, skimmer face plates, light gaskets, step seals, etc. They make sure that the TRACK around your pool in to which the vinyl liner is secured, is in good shape and make repairs as necessary.
Generally, it only takes them a day or two to have everything finished. They cut up your old liner and take it to the curb for trash collection if that's what you desire.
Finally, I have NEVER had a problem with the two liners that David has installed for me. He has a great warranty, but I have not had to use it. The price that he charges for a complete vinyl liner removal and installation is very competitive with other companies. He does not overcharge or add charges. What you agree to up front is what you pay.
I also bought a custom made safety cover from David in the Fall of 2000. It lasted for 17 years!!! Although I did not purchase my last safety cover from David, He was kind enough to provide the original measurements to me so that I could get estimates from several companies.
In conclusion, I highly recommend LinerLux and David Reed to replace your pool's vinyl liner. And, YES, I am on his mailing list. I think I might get two pieces of mail from him each year. One in the Spring and another in the fall. I don't mind it at all !!!! :) read more
