Well, not unexpected, the pool contractor put he wrong color pebble finish on our new pool. I paid extra to have them put in a darker color. Now I’m faced with what to do about it.

They said they can drain and refinish the pool with the correct color. I’m not familiar with the procedure but it sounds like it’s just a cosmetic patch job that may not be happy with. I’m told that this is the procedure that is done when you eventually have to refinish a pool.

I don’t know that the end result will look like and what happens when in time I really do need to have it refinished? Will it become a bigger project since it’s already been done once?

Another option is of course, they will credit me the cost of the upgraded color and, for my consolation prize, give me a Jandy Aqualink that will allow me to control the temp of the pool by remote control from inside the house…big deal. That sounds like it’s a product that no one wants and he has one left over in the warehouse.


What should I do??
