Recommendation: Re-surfacing pool and spa upon completing structural crack repairs.

The Pool appears to have structural cracks that need to be addressed and may be loosing water.

Our recommendations are as follows;

1.) Either perform a forensic investigation that can view the spacing & sizes of the (e) steel reinforcements and measure concrete thicknesses or demolish the areas where cracks are located in order to visually inspect.
Estimated costs: $2,500 to $3,500

2.) Upon discovery of the structural conditions have a California Licensed P.E. prescribe either a repair remedy or a replacement of the (e) to re-establish structural integrity. This will include making observations during the construction process.
Estimated Cost: $1,500 to $3,500

3.) Depending upon the P.E.'s recommendations the demolition, re-construction and building permit process may involve several inspections, removal of debris and the application of new Gunite to portions of the pool / spa. There is a large Italian Cyprus tree that is very close to the horizontal crack at the lake side of the pool's free standing wall, which may also need to be removed.
Estimated Costs: $25,000 to $45,000
