New pool built and filled. Noticed some issues with the pebble. Variations in the surface but some issues where there seemed to be a lack of pebble in areas. In particular, one wall of the spa seemed really bad. There is also a line of this area where there seems to be a lack of pebble that runs almost the entire length on one side of the pool. PB came out and looked and they didn’t think there was anything that could fix the wall on the spa. They suggested doing a full chip out on the spa and redoing it. On the main pool, they wanted to do an acid bath and polish. The chip out for the spa has been done and new pebble installed. Not as bad as before, but I’m still not impressed with the consistency of the application. The builder calls what I’m seeing as “cream.” To me it looks like a bad acid wash job or something where not enough pebble was exposed in certain areas. The acid bath has been done on main pool but polishing hasn’t happened yet.
Am I just being too picky? I understood that pebble is hand applied and would have some variations and inconsistencies. I wasn’t expecting this “cream” issue. I will post a link to a short underwater video. Please let me know if I’m just crazy or what.
