    Opinions or experience converting dive to lap pool?

    I'm thinking 5-6. I don't want it overly shallow. The other end is about 3-3.5 ft. Seems raising drains and filling in, but maybe there's more to it.

    Opinions or experience converting dive to lap pool?

    Just looking for advice, tips, etc. Considering conversion of 50x20 dive pool into lap pool by raising deep end. Worth the trouble? Probably would refinish entire pool in process, but more curious on pros, cons, costs, etc. Thanks, Jeff

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    Thanks AJW. I did some prior research and read about the Vulken product. When you say structurally decouple are you suggesting removing the decking and reinstall? If I understand your argument, the decking is putting pressure on the pool wall itself?

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    As MinerJason said, it's stamped deck, not other stone. Just large slabs of decking. However I thought the same about grouting to top. I would prefer a silicon grout/caulk on top to allow some flex and still seal. Not sure if that's the answer, but seems appropriate.

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    This pool was originally built in mid 80's by Cameo Pools...if anyone remembers them. We bought property in late 2000. Remodeled pool in 2005. I Perhaps it's just old. Originally built in mid 80's by Cameo Pools...maybe you remember them? We'll find out more. Gonna put water back in...

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    The deck is comprised of larger sections that extend to paver area or dirt. The expansion joints are perpendicular to pool. There is a joint at paver edge. The area of deck near pool area stamped for effect. Make sense?

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    Thanks for responses. I can't say exactly what was done in 2005. I saw things intermittently. I was working and only witnessed certain days of work. No one brought a structural issue to our attention, so I assume they did a typical redo. We've done a bit of stuff in the back of this...

    PB used Stonescape when contract was for Pebblesheen

    ROC is registrar of contractors. I'm in AZ. Maybe other states refer to contractor licensing differently.

    PB used Stonescape when contract was for Pebblesheen

    What does your contract and bill of sale say. If it says Pebbletec...they are wrong and need to resolve. Heck, they acknowledged the error according to your post. Wrong pallet? Not your problem. That's on them. If you think it's worth 60%...maybe you call it a deal I'm no expert but...

    Decking to tile to pebble...seap crack fix?

    Help with proper fix/product. Started with a suspected pool leak. Did't intend to pull tile off, but hollow sounds made me suspicious and the loose tile coincide with the sidewall cracks in pebbletec. Above each of those areas is an expansion gap in the decking. I'm no pro, but it seems to...

    Chunk of concrete breaking off raised area

    Thanks Jason. I'm not 100% sure how it was poured. I wasn't present at that moment. I did see some sandbags that were put in under a rebar framework before that occurred. I don't know what the proper method would be. I agree tearing out everything loose. Get a solid foundation and build...

    Chunk of concrete breaking off raised area

    This goes back over a year ago, so here's a condensed story. Pool was remodeled from plaster to pebble about 11 years ago. Steps, raised bench areas and spa were added at that time. Noticed a crack near spa area bench that slowly got worse. We also began to think we had a leak in the pool...
