    New pool - exterior rust stains appearing

    I’m glad there is a fix. We are in the litigation stage with our builder, so I will have to add this to the list. Sigh.

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Thanks for everyone who gave their input and advice. Very much appreciated. The pool company is offering some money off the pool in addition to the one inch chip out. What do you think would be a fair amount? It will not be at the right depth but I think I will be okay with it.

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Here are the communications from the pool builder: " I’ve talked with the team and it looks like we can remove about an inch of gunite from the shelf area. If you then keep the water an inch higher (slightly above mid tile line) then we will have made up two of the three inches missing and you...

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Hi- no I wanted 12 inches of water so the gunite should have been at 15" with room for tile.

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Yes, and I would love the group's advice. They said they could remove one inch of gunite through "chipping." And we could keep the water line one inch higher. They said this would get us 11" of water. They are asking how we feel about this. My main issue is that I wanted the water to be...

    I believe he meant that it was the first time they had screwed up a tanning ledge depth on his watch.

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Thank you for all your advice!!! I do have some pictures. I wish I had thought to measure the rebar. Should I be concerned about jackhammering causing structural instability in the pool? Thanks again! Suzanne

    Gunite mistake on shelf/ledge depth - what are my remedies?

    Hello! Right after our gunite crew left today, I went out and immediately noticed that the tanning ledge looked too shallow. It was supposed to be 15" and is 12". The project manager came right out and said this was a case of first impression for him. He is calling his manager. What are my...

    Pebble Fina vs. Hydrazzo?

    Hello! We are looking for a smooth finish in our new pool. Our PB here in Austin is quoting us over 5k for Pebble Fina and 8-9k for Hydrazzo. I was curious about opinions on these two finishes? Also is this pricing way out of line? Though I'm not sure if we have much choice unless we want...

    Pebble Fina Ceilo Blue or Grigio

    Wow! This video is really great! Thank you! I have also spent a TON of time online looking at Pebble Fina finishes. The resources you mention were helpful. I also did Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and plain old Google searches. I still question my choice though as I have not seen the color...
