I had a pool renovation project, which started March 2, 2021 that included new Colorquartz plaster, water line, cap, step/bench seat edge tiles and pool deck repair and coating. I monitored the progress the best I could, but had to be away during the last portion of the job. I am leaving the business end details to keep this brief. The plaster team forgot to install the tiles and installed them ten months later (12/21/21) by cutting out the plaster for 2 inch square tiles. The edges of the tile with new plaster is rough and plaster is still adhered to the tile, which does not look great. Also there are black marks on the tile that I suspect are from their tools. I’ve asked the PB to clean up the edges and remove the black marks. They said the marks and plaster on the tile “may go away on their own”, and we should wait for the water to warm up (Phoenix) to get into to, to smooth the new plaster around the tiles. My question is, should I expect the black marks and plaster to resolve itself over time? Second, the PB drained the pool 90% and it has been 12 days post refilling the pool. They were responsible for cleaning (lots of debris that I did not want in my filter) and startup chemicals. It’s winter in Phoenix with lows in the mid 40’s. I did a baseline check on 1/3/22 with the following and entering it into TFP Pool Math.
Air Temp: 46°; FC: 0; pH: 8+; TA: 175; CH: 230; CYA: 28; CSI: 0.38. The PB techs are on site now so I will check the water after they clean and do the startup, but I am concerned about how to correct the CSI with both 10 month old plaster and now new plaster 12 days old. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
