Pool coating cure time must come from the exact coating system and the conditions in which it was applied. Touch dry does not mean ready for immersion, and the date the contractor finishes painting is not automatically the refill date. Confirm

Pool paint peeling means the coating is no longer staying attached as it should, but another coat is not automatically the solution. Identify the old paint, establish which layer is separating and check the condition of the background before choosing a

Pool plaster delamination is a loss of bond between the finish and a layer beneath it. A hollow-sounding area, raised patch or section that has detached can justify investigation, but appearance alone does not confirm the cause or extent. Before patching,

A rough pool surface can be caused by deposits sitting on the finish, material being lost from the finish or wear that has exposed a different texture. Those conditions need different responses. Identify the existing surface, map the rough areas and

Fibreglass pool wall bulging? Arrange a professional assessment of the shell and its surroundings, not a trial drain. Removing water can reduce the support and weight opposing external water pressure, making deformation or uplift worse. Stop swimming if the wall has

Fibreglass pool blisters are raised areas in the finish that need identification before you choose a repair. Some involve osmotic activity beneath the gelcoat; others may involve a later coating or a poorly bonded repair. Do not puncture them or drain

Hairline cracks in pool plaster cannot be classified as harmless or structural from width alone. Record the pattern, location and any change over time, then have the finish and underlying structure assessed where needed. A fine surface network and a crack

A pool multiport valve leaking to waste during normal filtration needs investigation because water is taking an unintended route out of the system. First confirm the selected mode and whether discharge is continuing rather than residual water draining from the pipe.

Sand coming into pool water? If it enters through the return outlets, an internal sand-filter problem is possible, but not every gritty deposit comes from the filter. First record where the material appears and whether it returns during filtration. A technician

Low pool filter pressure is useful only when read alongside water flow, pump operating mode and the system’s usual clean pressure. A low reading with weak circulation may point to insufficient water reaching or moving through the pump. A low reading
