For a number of reasons we decided to pave over the planter bed on the back side of our pool. They finished the concrete last week and we've noticed they didn't install an expansion joint where the new concrete meets the coping stones. It was totally off my radar and I didn't ask them specifically to do it, and now we find ourselves wondering what's the best course of action to make this right? It seems like the worst case scenario is ripping it all out and re-pouring the concrete with proper prep, but I wanted to check TFP and see if anybody with experience on the issue might see something less drastic as a possible fix? This seems like a situation where both parties involved, contractor and client didn't know what they didn't know and now it's time to make some changes before damage is done to coping, tile, bond beam.
Any other thoughts?
- Kidney shaped pool with natural stone coping
- approx 35 feet of contact between new deck and coping
- "Precast Coping" pool edge with bond beam ledge visible before pouring
Any other thoughts?
