The marcite surface on my pool has pits and large grey areas showing through. The pool is not leaking yet, but how long do we have before we have to re-surface?
A. You should never ‘have’ to resurface. Pool surfaces are an aesthetic coating, a pleasingly consistent backdrop for the water. Constructed properly, the pool will hold water without any surface at all. Watch for leaks around the fittings, but when you re- surface is entirely up to you. Marcite checking Q. I’m so mad I could spit. After the pool was Marcited, it wasn’t filled until the next day. We discovered many checking cracks which were filled at a later time. I am wondering if we should demand that the contractor do the job over. We intend to keep the house for a long time and need to make the right choice. A. Not immediately filling the pool was unfortunate (dumb), but is rarely fatal. Have no idea what you mean when you say the ‘check cracks’ were filled in. Surface checking disappears when the pool’s filled with water. Was once filling a pool when the owner asked ‘When will you make the surface blue?’ Thinking he was kidding, I joked about the ‘underwater paint’ we applied jus
