Pool Surface Additional Notes

The surface appears to be between one and four years old. Ideal condition overall. There is some discoloration in the shallow end specifically the steps and one or two locations underneath the West light location and one tiny likely surface rust blemish (3mm or less) in deep end pictured. I do feel that the wear present is normal for this pool and I do not see any major issue and In fact the surface looks splendid - typically I would expect another 20-30 years if well maintained.
