    Too late, that was last weekends project. Since replastering only lasts 5-10 years cost would be a wash even if I only get 2-3 years out of it. The previous owners had already painted and it was chopping up in spots so we sanded it down and recoated. Considering the paint was in decent shape even after several years of neglect, I gotta imagine with proper care it should do as well. Back to my topic though, does anyone have any input on hydrostatic valve?

    My original plaster lasted 20 years. I hope this set lasts at least 15. I hope you have better luck than I did.

    I would get a new drain plug. I can see benefits to either PVC or brass. What does it screw into? If it screws into plastic I might choose PVC. Either way I don't think there is a wrong answer.
