I thought my “pollen” problem was because I was having trouble with my robot but I am starting to think this is an algae. This is the first time dealing with this in the 4 years we have had the pool. It brushes away like it is pollen but it seems to keep coming back to the same areas (sloped...

After adding some concrete to our pool we wanted it to match the existing concrete spray deck. I got two estimates to have it done which ranged from $1200 for just the new concrete texture and color to about $5000 to texture the new concrete and put a fresh coat on the existing. After talking...
