    Question about 50 year old gunite pool.

    Thank you for the advice. Do you know how thick the walls should be for coring purposes? I'm an electrician and I own a core drill with tons of different size bits

    Question about 50 year old gunite pool.

    Probably could but it would require working under the deck. Is that something they will do? How do we handle getting from the main drain to the new piping I ran?

    Question about 50 year old gunite pool.

    I have attached a few pics. Main drain was replaced 5 years ago, the original main drain was just a cover placed in a hollowed out portion of plaster with the poly pipe stubbed into it. 45 years of water eroded enough plaster/gunite to give us a leak. When we did the main drain our pool guy...

    Ok. I will do that tomorrow. When they re pipe a gunite pool do they cut trenches in the walls?

    Question about 50 year old gunite pool.

    Hey all. We live in Southern NH and have owned our house for 9 years. Our pool was installed in 1975 according to town records. Some tiles have fallen off and the plaster needs to be resurfaced. We had a new skimmer and main drain enclosure installed when we moved in due to leaks. The piping...

    Wet Niche Fixture

    So my wet niche light hasn't worked since we bought the house last year. I pulled the lamp housing out and this is a picture of it. It uses a 400 watt Edison base lamp.
