Recently used Big Blasters and had a good experience. Linda was great to deal with for the whole process. I am sure they have a backlog still like most contractors in the area ,so be mindful of that.

I had the give me a quote last year. When she came out to inspect the pool I told her I wanted it to be stripped to the gunite. I was told sorry, that’s not how we do it here?? I’ve been told by several pool builders to definitely take it to the gunite otherwise you don’t know what you’re trying to adhere to. Its now time for me to get hot on this project again. I’d be curious to see what they tell you.

Big Blasters did good work for us. Interesting, they actually don’t blast it. A whole bunch of Makita electric tools and a bunch of guys. Linda was good people.

Ray Gillespie at Tropical Pools. When he did ours the old plaster was completely removed. There were deep gouges in the gunite that the new minipebble could bond to. Beautiful work. No Makitas, large pneumatic chippers.

I talked to Ray also, he said he is only doing replasters and would send me an estimate but never replied.

Also what is the standard down deposit for pool work here in havasu, az? Because I don’t want to give any more than I have to until it’s completed.

I communicated with Ray by text. Full payment a week after completion, nothing up front.
