Safety Fencing Additional Notes

The safety fencing on the side of the house is fine. It is wrought iron and self-closes, and there is no issue. However, over by the pool equipment, there is a wooden gate that is not self-closing, but it does open in the correct direction. It needs a self-closing spring-loaded assembly installed to enable this gate to close by itself.

Pool Surface Notes
There are large areas of staining and discoloration, The surface is slightly abrasive and not as smooth or as new and will allow more organic matter to grow as a result of the slightly abrasive surface, The pool surface has discoloration throughout due to improper water balance over time, The pool surface has heavy wear, pitting, and or missing surface areas, The surface appears to no longer be water tight at this time, Recommend re-surface as soon as possible
Pool Surface Additional Notes

This swimming pool surface is in need of being resurfaced. There are cracks located on the bench right next to the spa spillover, and as well, over to the left, when looking at the spa, there is a crack that starts up at the tile and extends down. These cracks will require additional work than a typical re-plaster but it is impossible to know until the plaster has had demo. It is also impossible to know whether there is a brown coat necessary that is applied to all of the gunite, but we will not be able to determine until the plaster has been removed. A brown coat is $5,500, and the additional work for the crack repair is $3,500. The anticipated cost to do the brown coat, do the extra work to repair the cracks, and resurface the entire pool is $30,300.

The mastic around the pool has seen its days. It is cracked, worse in some places than others. It should be replaced all around the pool.

Additional Tile Notes

There are no broken or missing pieces of tile. Overall, they are in good condition. I recommend cleaning them with a bead blast service to remove the calcium buildup.
