We just had our gunite completed yesterday. When we measured it, our wetdeck/tanning ledge will only have 4” of water instead of 6” that we want. We originally wanted 9” of water but to avoid having an extra entrance step we settled with 6”. That’s the shallowest we can go, and even told the shotcrete crew that they can go an inch deeper, just make sure to not go shallower. But guess what, it’s shallower!
We talked to our PB and said a possible solution is to increase our deck height. Wouldn’t increasing the deck height mess everything up, such as our benches and spa seats going deeper? Also the water will not be at the mid skimmer level.
What would be our options to get the wetdeck depth fixed? Would jackhammer help? Would they have to redo the whole wetdeck and steps gunite?
