So I've conquered my chemistry and it now time to address the next elephant in the room. My crumbling pool plaster. When buying the house you could tell it was old but now being in it, it's a lot worse than I'd hoped. Maybe it was always this bad, maybe the added foot traffic was the final straw for this neglected pool or maybe getting the chemistry right has turbo'd the inevitable. The floor is coming up in chucks all over the place, depths ranging from 1/8-1/4".
Living in the oil field has limited my options. I can't get a local pool builder on the phone to save my life. I have reached out further and came up with the following quotes so far. I am leaning toward the fiberglass option, I prefer the smooth floor feeling and like the idea of the whole pool surface being covered sealing the whole thing.
Plain colored replaster w/retile - $22000 - El Paso, TX
Replaster w/quartz and retile - $14000 - Lubbock, TX
Replaster w/Aquabright - $23000 - Austin, TX
Replaster w/Aquabright - $TBD - Midland, TX ~ This one is only 20 miles away but I haven't been able to have them out yet.
Fiberglass w/retile - $12000 - Dallas, TX - Premier Fiberglass Resurfacing
Fiberglass only - $15000 - Dallas, TX - Texas Fiberglass Pools
The pictures kind of give you an idea of the staining, thinning spots and missing sections that have only multiplied.
