Old Pool Restoration

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine is thinking of refurbishing his pool. It was built in the 60s and has conrete block walls. The coping is clad aluminum attached to a board. He wants to rip out the old coping, put in new bullnose coping. Rip out the concrete deck around the pool, put in an additional skimmer.

I built my own pool 3 years ago (inground 16x32 w/8 ft. deep end) so I am not entirely "unhandy", but this is a different ballgame. I have no idea what it would be like to cut into that block.

Anyone ever attempted anything like this on their own? I told him I would help him anyway I can but this is a HUGE unknown to me. Any advice? Anyone know of any resources to evaluate this kind of job?
