Wrong light niche installed, shotcrete already completed.

Pool builder includes bluesquare spectrum 360 led light which uses a small light niche. Well I paid and upgraded to pentair 5g light which uses large niche. Shotcrete was on Thursday, I actually went down into pool and while watering shotcrete I noticed they installed small niche. I've heard they can chip this out and still install the large niche. will I see any problems in future having this done?

It should be fine enlarging the light hole.

I am going to ping a couple of people who will know for sure. Lets see if my gut is right when it says it should be fine. @bdavis466 @jimmythegreek

I don't think there's enough difference in the brightness of the bigger light that it would be worth chipping that out. Maybe push for a credit instead?

I would push for a credit too. Not a fan of any of the pentair, Hayward, etc lights they all die young it seems.
