3 year old swimming pool has cement floated. Is this bad for long term?
I had a swimming pool/decking installed 3 years ago. A PVC coupling to the pool feed completely burst under the decking. I had water cascading into the pool below the mastic for hours. The decking lifted about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch above the coping. I paid $1,000 US to have the cement jackhammered to repair the PVC coupling.
The plumber indicated that there was stress on the coupling because one side of the PVC was higher by 6 inches than the other and over time it burst. I got the original contractor to replace the mastic but I'm still pissed about the concrete lifting. He told me he only had a one year obligation. I want to choke the son of a bitch. I have 1/5 of an acre with PVC running all of the place and in 10 years haven't had one break yet.
Am I wrong to think that he shouldn't replace the decking that floated. It's very expensive ($5000+) and could lead to legal bills, etc.
You'd have a tough time enforcing a claim against him in court. Usually, and I don't know your local law, to win against someone after a warranty period you would have to show that ne knew or should have known that a latent, hidden, defect was going to cause problems that he should have foreseen and avoided through normal care. A lawyer can tell you better than I. You might try a campaign of letter writing as to the Better Business Bureau, State Attorney General, Chamber of Commerce, professional associations he is a member of, etc. This may or may not prod him to action. Small claims court, which probably will not cover all your injury, might be a way to get something without having to hire a lawyer.
