Replacing vinyl liner pool steps is costly and unnecessary. These steps are fiberglass and can last 60 or more years, if cared for properly. But you must replace the white coating, swimming pool gel coat, once every 20 years.

Even after the 20 years, the steps can still be repaired or refinished by any DIY pool owner. SwimmingPoolResurfacing.com has the products and the help you need to restore worn or torn fiberglass (plastic) steps.

AnswerDrain the water out to the point where the steps needing repair are no longer under water. You will need to re-plaster them, let is cure (and dry) then refill the pool.

The easiest way to repair a leak in pool steps is with a two part epoxy. This is readily available at your local pool supply store. First identify where the leak is. Than enlarge the hole with a screw driver. Mix only enough epoxy to do the repair and push the mixture into the hole and smooth it out. You do not have to drain the pool to do this. The above assumes that this is a concrete pool or an inground liner pool with fiber glass steps.

There are a number of ways you could repair a chip in a plastic in-ground pool. You could fill it with a plastic that hardens when it dries for example.

How do you fibreglass a inground pool liner pool?

Fiberglass pool shells are shipped in a single piece directly from the manufacturer. As a result, you don't actually linea pool with fiberglass the way you would with concrete or vinyl. Instead, installing a fiberglass pool simply means digging a hole in which to place the already completed shell.

How do you fix small hole in in ground fiberglass pool steps?

I think they have patch kits, but you have to drain below the area so it is dry. You mix the resin, slob it on a cloth and put a few layers over the hole. i think one for a car sold in auto body sections (along with the bondo in a can) would even work since fibreglass is fibreglass. After it drys , run a sander over it and viola.
