PREPARATION FOR REPLASTERING SWIMMING POOLS

There are procedures that must be done to all pools prior to preparation for replastering.

Obtain permits if required.

Take all necessary action to turn off all power to pool equipment, water features, lights and auto water fills.

Drain pool in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.

BEWARE: Care should be taken in areas with high water tables and appropriate actions taken to prevent flotation of the pool shell.

If the existing tile is to remain, undercut below water line tile, around all fittings, wall steps and lights as appropriate to ensure a flush finish for the new pool surface.
