Greetings all,
I have a 33 year old gunite pool that majorly needed a renovation. Having received quotes as high as 12k for gunite and tile repair, I decided to go the DIY route. At some point in the 1980's the pool was refinished. However over time there were pockets forming between the layers of gunite.
At this stage of the game the "Kool Deck" has been removed (that was lots of fun) and the deteriorating of gunite (stairs and walls) and all the tile have been chipped out.
Assuming that the next step is refinishing the gunite, should I be seeking a contractor to do the work? I assume yes. Any advice would be appreciated.
I will post some pics later on this evening.
