Leak warranty coverage

[kwazy]

You asked, and answered your question in the same sentence.

Your platform, aka structure, gunite shell, etc.. is a monolithic concrete foundation for its fascia (coping), it's finish (waterline tile and plaster), and its peripherals such as pool lamps, main drains etc.. and is warranted to be structurally sound and hold water. Anything fastened to, or encased in the concrete is considered external.
Retaining water is the job description of a number of pool items besides the platform.

I'm glad to hear your getting a better deal than their original estimation, I thought it was a hosing for sure.

See ya,

Kelly,

Thanks again for your reply. I guess what is really confusing about all this is that the gunite shell is not capable of holding water by itself, true? My understanding is that if during my pool construction I filled the shell with water before the plaster and tile were applied, that shell would not hold the water. The plaster and tile are what waterproofs the structure. If this is the case, then what is the purpose of warranting the "shell/structure" to hold water if said warranty doesn't include the plaster and tile?

Regards,
Jeff

The warranty is for the shell not to crack. When it cracks so does the plaster troweled over it. When the shell cracks that's when it warrantied by the guniter.
