    If you can live with this color take the money and the consolation prize. The more toys the better and you won't have a double finish on the pool. If on the other hand you will never be happy with it the way it is, then redo it. What good is the pool if you will be ticked off every time you go out there. The main thing is make them do what you want and what you will be happy with.
    The number of people staring at you is directly proportional to the stupidity of your actions.

    Bummer.... At least the PB is trying to make it right.

    I think the replaser would give you exactly what you want but could make the next replaster more difficult. Then again, that's probably 10-15 years aways with pebble. I think it's the best option if you will never be happy with the current color. You want to unwind by the pool, not get stressed.

    If you can live with the color, the Aqualink is much more than a consolation prize. This is especially true if you have a spa. One button and it moves all the valves and fires up the heater. You can even set it so it's ready and waiting after a night on the town. I compare ours to power windows/locks in a car -- not neccessary but I can't imagine using manual windows or a key to unlock the doors any more.

    Everyone I know has war stories about their pool builder. Hope they quickly become a distant memory while you are lounging in the new pool.

    The Aqualink "remote" is about $1200 to add to my pool/spa. Not a small consolation prize by my estimate.
