I am also looking for answers to this situation. My pool was poured today while it rained. The walls in part of the pool collapsed just after they shot the gunite. There are now large sections where the steel is exposed and I am sure those areas are filling up with water. If you can help or give any suggestions please contact me at coronado4@msn.com
Thanks
If there are chunks that have fallen and void areas, just reshoot those areas. The nice thing about gunite is there are no cold joints when you place new gunite over old gunite.
Of course most guniters charge a setup fee just to show up at the job no matter how large it is, so small shoots are expensive.

Then place all sub conntractors,(layered in a criscross pattern),covered with 3/4 crushed rock, finish up with a fine sandy loam, litley "compacted" sprinkle with an even coating of an approiate grass seed, apply water and enjoy your best friend's pool!!! This is my best advice,

Can you ruin your pool if you don't water the gunite when your pool is being built?
No the Gunite is the underlayer and base of your pool and has plenty of water in it when it goes on. Now your plaster which is the last coat and the part you swim in needs to be covered with water as soon as the cement workers are finished in order to dry properly. Kenny Kummer brody Chemical
