Gather the necessary tools and materials

Most Intex pools come with a patching kit and fabric that you can use to fix holes and tears when they occur on your above ground pool. Locate them and get a pair of scissors too.

Inspect your Intex pool

Find the part/s of your pool that will require patching. Determine if these holes can be fixed using your patching kit or if they're too large already that you might need help from a pool professional.

Prepare to patch

It's advisable to cut your patching kit circularly and make it at least an inch larger than the tear or hole you need to cover. This means if the diameter of the hole on your pool liner is about an inch, your patch should be 2 inches in diameter.

Put the patch on your pool

If you're putting a patch on a filled Intex pool or underwater, then you must put a small amount of patching adhesive from your kit onto the backside of your patch, then fold it in half to spread the adhesive. Wait for at least 10 minutes for it to cure, then immerse it into the water while you keep the patch folded. When you're near the tear in your pool liner, open it, and place it over the hole. Make sure that you press firmly to ensure that the patch covers the hole or tear properly.

When you're patching the above the water line or a hole in your inflatable ring, you should squeeze a pea-sized adhesive to your patch and the surface you need to put it on, wait at least 10 minutes, then start placing the patch, put pressure on the center and work your way toward the edges. Also, if you're going to patch the ring of your Intex pool, make sure it's inflated so you can properly cover all its holes.
