The surface to me appears to be approximately seven years old.
It is likely that the pool was a natural design pool that they plastered over to allow waterproofing to occur.
Over all the surfaces in fair condition = There is mottling (leopard spots) present throughout - common for a 7+ yr old pool surface.
Note that where the water meets the exposed plaster, this area is most susceptible to cracking / issues - Which we are seeing some minor issues on the south right middle portion (picture 1). Hey standard swimming pool will have a bond beam that is tiled over and the tile will be the waterline to prevent potential cracking (shrinking) issues. These waterline check cracks are present around the entire pool. Likely of no substantial issue today, but in the future will become of issue Likely requiring waterproofing of this area.
The surface overall has many variations in its shape, making it of some challenge for the bottom cleaner to manage.
I would give this surface a fair condition.
Special note that if this surface is younger than seven years, it would be of concern to me indicating that the surface may require additional attention much sooner than I initially prescribed.
Also note the out of water surface, which is good. Knight has considerable wear and check cracking present. It is likely that the majority of these exposed surfaces which include concrete decking will require additional attention - not estimable by myself due to its proprietary nature. Natural Design Pools may be contacted for a more accurate bid as it’s their proprietary method of gunite / surface.
