I'm in the middle of a new pool build. We removed our old free-form pool for a new 14' x 30' rectangular pool with an attached 6' x 7' raised spa.
Do to delays (weather and subcontractors) our pool was shotcreted Dec 22 while we were out of town. We just returned to discover that the spa walls were shot for 14" walls, but the spa was framed for 12" walls. So, our 6' x 7' spa is now roughly 5'8" x 6'8". Unfortunately, the plans call for 14" walls yet during excavation and framing it was decided to go with 12" walls to match the pool, and this change never made it to the plans. Due to the wrong wall thickness, the jets are not in a good location.
We have a meeting with the PB tomorrow afternoon. Is it possible to cut the walls back 2"? Anyone have a rough guess on cost? There's 7 jets plus two 2" returns on the walls that could complicate cutting back the walls.
thanks,
Dave.
