Can someone please advise. I had my pool replastered four years ago. They did not use a bonding agent. The plaster is actually breaking off in pieces, it's not cracking along the walls or bottom, it's a big hole where the blue plaster they put down now shows the white plaster beneath it. Is it still a standard in the industry (I'm in Virginia) to simply etch a pool when replastering?

Welcome to TFP!!!It is common to either etch the original plaster and I think use a bonding agent if the current layer of plaster is not flaking ... or do a full chip out down to the shell before the replaster. I think the 2nd is the better option.
Sounds like that company that did the work did not do an adequate inspection or preparation.
