    correct or incorrect?

    Thanks for the reply bobby! I actually did four laps last Saturday and that's when I noticed the water overflowing into the recess. It was just me, swimming back and forth. Then my brother got into the water, and it got worse. Any suggestions?

    correct or incorrect?

    The new coping is Tennessee Crab Orchard. The pattern is nothing like we saw on the pictures they showed us, but then again nobody wants to guarantee a pattern.

    correct or incorrect?

    The water level is not the same, as i didn't care about it before. You have to kind of look at it from the rail down. Any advice on how i should discuss the problem with the builder and how it should be corrected?

    correct or incorrect?

    Hi, My pool builder replaced the coping on my pool with stone but put tile on the side where the pool cover is. Now, when i swim, water empties into the cover recess. I spoke with the builder and he told me that the tile is on the same level as where the coping was, and that I need to top...

    Does re-plastering decrease pool depth?

    How thick is a layer of Bond Kote? And how thick is a layer of plaster?

    Does re-plastering decrease pool depth?

    Thanks. The cheapest PB i found just told me that the way he applies the new plaster will add about 1/4" to 1/2" to the existing plaster. Does that sound right?

    Does re-plastering decrease pool depth?

    If I have my pool re-plastered, I was told that they put in some adhesive (Bond Kote) and add the new plaster on top. Does that decrease pool depth and by how much?

    The remodel begins!

    Blowout, What did the final cost end up being? I am in a similar situation, even though with a larger pool and in New Jersey. Regards!

    coping pushed by cover anchors

    Yes, you are correct, the patio is made of brick pavers. The anchors have aluminum tubes that are about 14 inches long. The anchors/tubes are now leaning toward the pool and there is a pattern of the brick pavers, where those b/n the anchors and coping are closer to the pool than the others...
