Not self closing self latching.

Wear present throughout + wear all the way through to the gunite on the steps and likely in the deep end of the pool, this is generally indicating the surface is due to be resurfaced now.

The cost to resurface a pool this size would likely run between 8 to 12k+

The waterline tile overall is likely due to be re mortared / re done ($1500-2500+) = I do see some missing sections near the skimmer and near the north east side of the pool. And some of the other tiles sound hollow, repair only of current tiles would likely run $1500 + which would likely include some re mortaring waterline and skimmer throat.

Little to no calcium buildup present, except for the northwest side and even there it’s not very thick.

Also, really only seen on the north side of the pool is a small gap that can be filled in with mastic if desired ($500-1k+).

And the waterfall will also need some new mortar as well ($500+)

The water quality shows black algae present + 0 chlorine and cya.

Recommend rebalance ($200+) and retest to confirm water loss status.

The main drain cover should be updated for safety ($100+) but that will be updated at time of Re-Plaster for less than 1k to do a channel drain (recommend vs raised drain they’ll want to do for no extra cost).

The skimmer is older and should have its internal parts updated which will include a new float , A new weighted basket, a new float O-ring, weir door , lid ($500+)

The bottom cleaner is working, but it is likely going to need some updates which will include a new tail , hose + segments / swivels / backup valve - current hose set up is very old / showing o ring wear ($205+)

Recommend a new light ($450-1250) can currently light can is filled with water condensation + labor $400.

The filter appears to be in ideal working condition, but because of the black algae present, the elements will likely need to be updated after plastering or ideally right before ($500+).

This pump is failing, you can hear a vibration inside the impeller or motor ($450-950+) and the motor is very hot, indicating stress = when the pump has very little resistance. Note that unfortunately this pump is relatively non-repairable due to obsolete materials / parts.

I would just wait for this pump to fail, which will likely be in the next one to 24 months, and replace with a Pentair Superflo Vs ($1200) or I3 ($1800+) + install $650

Recommend adding a GFCI for the variable speed pool pump ($150+ electrician install $350) but it would also be wise to consider adding a junction box for maximum safety (+$350).

The plumbing is all likely original and should be updated complete = $1500+

On the return side of the pump, I do see a leak coming out of the return fitting, also these split it off between the bottom cleaner and the filter and everything should go through the filter first then distributed from there. Additionally, the return Plumbing is all inch and a half and should be updated as well = new valve X 1 or more.
