How long does a vinyl pool liner last?

Eight to twelve years for an inground liner and seven to ten for above ground in North Carolina. Balanced chemistry and a cover during heavy sun exposure both extend that meaningfully.

Can you match my existing liner pattern?

Often, but patterns are discontinued regularly. We bring current sample books and will show you the closest available options alongside the pattern you have now.

Will you find the leak before replacing?

Yes. We verify whether the loss is liner, plumbing, or evaporation first — replacing a liner will not fix a plumbing leak, and we will tell you if that is what you actually have.
