My pool is an in ground gunite 30k gallon. It was built in 1980 with the house. I bought it about 8 years ago. When we bought the house it had a few missing tiles and several mismatched ones. I believe that everything is original on it except the mismatched tiles that I already mentioned. My plan all along was to replace the tiles because of the mismatched ones. My daughter (she was much younger at the time or this would have really angered me) was trying to "help me out" and during the course of that first summer removed a lot of tiles. I had no idea she was the culprit until I had fished out a lot of tiles and tile pieces. So I have neglected this project until now. Now I'm ready to get this waterline looking good again. I want the whole pool resurfaced but my budget will not allow that all at once. I got a quote from one pool company and they want $5800 to remove and replace waterline tiles. No coping work or anything else. To me that seems excessive. I called several but so far they were the only ones who showed up to give me a quote. I have also found out that 90% of the pool work regarding tiles and plaster is done by one company and the pool contractors sub the work out. I am a handy guy and I have tools, including air compressors and a pneumatic hammer. What I do not have is experience with tiles, especially pool tiles. I am getting a quote from a tile guy, but he didn't want to even do the job if he has to tear out the old tile. I need some advice please. I will post pictures with my questions. Any help is greatly appreciated.
