POOL RENOVATION STATUS AND PHOTOS

 

Status:

Because of the frequent Thunderstorms this week, the start of the project was delayed.  Work started Tuesday afternoon and the pool drained on Wednesday (May 20).  Below are progress photos and notes.

The pool is drained and grinding of the skimmer area started.

lower blue tiles are now in place and will set and cure. The darker blue tiles at the steps are code regulated tiles that are non skip while getting in and out of the pool. The crew will be back on Tuesday to do the skimmer area and start the inside of the pool

Everything is progressing.  New tiles have been installed and the edge leveled.  The surface has been patched and new returns installed.  The bonding agent to attach the new quartz surface to the old layer has been applied and is curing.  Final quartz material is planned to be applied on May 29.

The pool is about DONE!!!   The pool is now being refilled and the new ladder installed.  David Zorn reported that after a very long day (starting at 6am) the renovation is complete.  Here are some pictures prior to the refilling.

The pool is now filled and the system is up and running again.  Chemicals have been added and it is in the process of being balanced ready for use again.  The beam (white edge around the pool) still needs its final coat but this will be done shortly.  Water temperature is in the 80’s as filled from the hoses. 

 

 

Many thanks to David Zorn (our very own temp pool boy!) and his wife Susan for overseeing the project
