Welcome to my world, we have been struggling with a 24ft above ground that was never put in level. The easiet way we found was to buy a new liner, cost us $300, but it came out of the package really neatly, and there were no other holes in it ie strainer. WE I mean four of us, worked at getting the liner in place, I dont think one persone could ever do it alone. When we were happy with where it was sitting, we added a few inches of water, then worked out the excess wrinkles. Seems to be doing ok now. good luck
