Help! Gunite step repair

[Eefranklin]

We are mid-replastering of our pool. During chip-out the top step of our hot tub was damaged. A huge piece of concrete fell off, reducing the size of step by about 6-8 inches. How should I demand they fix the step before plastering? I am concerned that they will take the easy way out which will not be an enduring fix. Thanks in advance.

Show us some pics of the steps.

It is hard to see exactly what is going on, but you can see where tile installer slapped on some extra grout.
Thank you for your reply and let me know if you have other questions.

Yah, I don't see the problem.

Can you draw on the pic where the step lost 6-8 inches.

It looks to me like everything will be leveled and smoothed out with the plaster.

That whole area broke off at a 45 degree angle. Imagine cutting a cube in half diagonally.

I think they will build that back up with plaster.

It doesn't look like it will be an issue. Just make sure all the loose and hollow stuff gets removed.
