The surface is heavily worn Throughout.

In the pool I am seeing calcium fisher’s present on walls and on bottoms. Generally indicating A wet subsoil and or ph im balance for a prolonged period of time.

In the beach entry south east corner and west corner we have missing surface, which is likely causing water loss currently as the level is too high.

In the spa, we have heavy wear present.

Overall, the surface is due for resurfacing soon $10-14k.

Additional Tile Notes

The waterline tile is nearly all covered with water making it slightly difficult to see any imperfections.

On the south east corner of the pool at the waterline we are seeing some gaps present between the concrete and the tile this likely will need to be filled in with mastic ($1000) for a semi permanent repair.

The waterfall area will need to be rewarded soon in some areas to re-waterproof and secure rocks ($2k+).

The pool has two slate stones. The east is loose and the west will become loose soon. Recommend resealing both ($500+).

Recommend updating the five covers in the pool and the two in the spa - all are due to be updated due to age and condition ($700).

Skimmer has been heavily chlorine abused, and will need its internal components to be updated to restore ideal function ($400+).

That during the replaster stage, it is recommended that this skimmer is updated due to the chlorine abuse ($1-4k).

Bottom Cleaner Condition: $0

Cleaner #1 Cleaner #2

Bottom Cleaner Additional Notes

There is no bottom cleaner present, but it is set up for one in the middle deep end above the step.

It would be my opinion that the best option for this bottom cleaner would be the suction side, which would require some minor plumbing. An A+ quality suction cleaner is the pool cleaner, four wheel $400

The pump motor is showing signs of heavy abuse due to missing paint and warped metal. This is found mostly at the motor itself ($950) - additionally, the pump has had significant chlorine usage and has turned the wet and brown Indicating Week and distressed plastic ($450+). I would anticipate this pump to last another 1 to 5 years before replacement due to leaks / motor issues ($2800+ installed new).

Recommend attaching the bonding wire to the pump as it is not currently connected ($100).

This heater does turn on and function. The unit appears to be between 10 - 15 years old and likely has less than 1 to 48 months of life left before repalcment is required as heaters that operate in HEAVY chlorine pools has a max life of 15 years. ($4800+).

To help prolong the life of this heater, recommend installing a heater bypass and drip leg on the gas line, which will also be complementary to the new heater when installed as well ($1050).

Overall Details

There are several locations where leaks are present on the plumbing and three-way valves with high chlorine pools. It would be likely that a re-plumbing complete ($2200)
would be best effort and value bs repairs $1500…

Also recommend updating the shade shelter with new mesh and new supports as they are about ready to fall and damage equipment ($500+).
