Pool Surface Additional Notes

The surface has rust stains present, scratches, missing surface. The beach entry is beginning to stress fracture (at the most exposed areas) indicating water loss may be present if it penetrates deep enough. Overall the surface is damaged and likely losing water currently or will shortly. We are likely down to the gunite in 5-10% of the surface and therefore re surfacing is recommended ($9-12K).

Additional Tile Notes

The waterline tile is in fair condition overall. Some issues present in the throat of the skimmer on the north corner - tile is hollow indicating missing mortar present. Recommend mortar service to update this area for approx $500-1000+.

The north west of the pool has a few lifting concrete sections = recommend attention to this trip hazard (1500-3500+) to either grind down / fill or re pour.

In the shallow end there is some stress being put on the beach entry - as that south concrete has some movement due to this being a wet area native. That said I do see that some decorative rocks were placed likely right on top of the plaster. These areas are due for re mortar ($2500+).
