attending the pre-bid site visit, any vendor bidding on this project may physically
inspect the aforementioned Aquatic Center activity pool to familiarize themselves
with the job. Contact Eric Olsen or Kelly Fernandez at (305) 795-2241 for an
appointment.
1.4.3 It is the sole responsibility of the bidder to visit, inspect, and verify dimensions and
the extent of work required. This includes but is not limited to measuring the area to
determine the actual quantity of materials to be supplied. Failure to inspect the site
prior to bidding will not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of providing all the
work and supplying the materials included in these specifications.
1.5 Protection of Existing Site Conditions:
The contractor shall take the necessary precautions to protect the site. Should damage be
incurred, the contractor shall repair the damage to its original condition at his own expense.
1.6 Material/Work Not Conforming to the Contract Documents:
The owner reserves the right to reject material or work which does not conform to the
contract documents. Rejected work shall be removed or corrected at the earliest possible
time.
1.7 Site Cleanup:
The contractor shall maintain all working area free, at all times, of tools, materials, and/or
equipment not essential to the progress of the work. Materials and equipment on the jobsite
should be stored in a neat and orderly manner. Upon completion of the job, all debris created
by the job shall be removed from the job site.
1.8 Final Inspection:
The contractor shall maintain all work in first class condition until it has been completed as a
whole and has been accepted by the owner. The owner will make a semifinal inspection upon
notice from the contractor of completion of the entire project. If, at the semifinal inspection,
all construction provided for by the contract is found to be completed to the owner’s
satisfaction, such inspection shall constitute the final inspection. If, at the semifinal inspection,
any work is found unsatisfactory, in whole or in part, the owner shall give the contractor the
necessary instructions as to replacement and/or correction of such work, and another
5 | Page Invitation to Bid 201 8 -Jan -01
inspection shall be made, which shall constitute the final inspection if the work is satisfactorily
completed.
1.9 Final Acceptance:
Final acceptance of the work may be obtained from the owner upon the satisfactory
completion of all work.
1.10 Materials:
All materials throughout the resurfacing project shall be new and in perfect condition. No
deviations from the specifications shall be allowed unless approved by the owner. All materials
should be used in accordance with manufacturer specifications and adhere to guideline set by
Florida Department of Health.
2.0 MATERIALS
2.1 Description:
Exposed Aggregate is a form of decorative concrete achieved by removing the top layer of
cement paste and revealing the underlying aggregate. The decorative aggregate now
becomes a very durable, skid-resistant surface for the interior of swimming pools.
3.0 SITE PREPARATION
3.1 Protecting the Deck:
Surrounding deck areas will be protected in high-traffic areas with rubber mats and
visqueen plastic as needed.
3.2 Protecting the Surface Returns & Gutter System:
Care should be taken to protect and maintain quality and function of existing stainless steel
returns, gutters and grates.
4.0 DRAINING THE POOL
Draining of the pool will be executed under continuous supervision by authorized personnel
provided by the contractor. Perimeter well points will be installed around the deep end
perimeter prior to draining. Hydrostatic relief plugs will be removed and left open until
completion of the project. Precautions should be taken to control ground water (temporary
pumps may be installed to control ground water).
6 | Page Invitation to Bid 201 8 -Jan -01
5.0 SURFACE PREPARATION
5.1 All substrates must be free of dirt, grease, oil, dust, chalking or shipping paint, or any
foreign material that may prevent or inhibit proper bonding.
5.2 The pool surface will be checked for stability and sounded for any loose or delaminated pool
finish. Any structural problems or imperfections found shall be the responsibility of the
contractor to repair.
5.3 Existing tile must be undercut for proper seal of pool finish and even application of exposed
aggregate applied.
5.4 Surface will be acid washed for proper etching and all acid residues removed with a 3,500 psi
pressure washing. All acids will then be neutralized prior to disposal. The pool surface may be
bleach washed and degreased with tri-sodium phosphate if necessary.
5.5 Voids where the existing finish has been removed and a single application of exposed aggregate
finish will not bring the surface to a uniform plane, will be filled with additional applications to
ensure a good workability. Before application of additional material, the surface to be patched
will be maintained in a damp condition for several hours prior to application of the material to
reduce suction and ensure good bond.
5.6 Inlets, Returns, Main Drains and Vacuum Covers
5.6.1 All plastic pool fixtures (to include main drain covers, return covers and vacuum line
covers) should be replaced with new fixtures that meet current Florida Department
of Health code requirements (VGBA).
5.6.2 The area around all fixtures is to be cut back (undercut to a 3/8” depth as well as light
niches) and replaced to allow for new pool finish and to ensure a quality seal around
the new fixtures. The main drain frame and grate will be installed as required to provide
¼” minimum ground for new exposed aggregate finish.
5.6.3 Existing stainless steel returns and gutters are not to be altered. Application of the
new pool finish should be flush with the existing lower edge of the stainless steel
gutter without restricting or altering the flow of surface returns.
5.7 Shell Cracks:
5.7.1 It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to fix any imperfections/cracks/damage
to the pool shell. Cost for such repairs should be included in the contractor’s bid for
resurfacing.
5.7.2 Loose surface around cracks will be removed.
5.7.3 Cracks will be cut out or sawed to a depth of not less than ½”. This cut out shall take
the form of a raglet with parallel sides (not to be a vee-cut).
7 | Page Invitation to Bid 201 8 -Jan -01
5.7.4 The raglet will be cleaned, completely free from dust, and a flexible sealant suitable
for concrete repairs will be pressed into the raglet in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. (a typical product would be Memeco’s Vulkum Sealant
No. 116)
5.7.5 Exposed aggregate will be applied directly over the repair work. Subsequent shifting or
movement of the pool shell will most certainly cause the crack to recur in the newly
applied exposed aggregate; however, flexible material used to repair the crack will
preclude the danger of water loss by leakage.
5.7.6 Remove all existing material from the top horizontal portion of the first entrance step
so that when the new exposed aggregate material is applied it is flush with the existing
lower edge of the stainless steel gutter without impeding return flow.
5.8 Application of Dura-Bond Mechanical Bonding System:
5.8.1 A mechanical bonding system shall be applied to all existing pool surfaces before
refinishing with exposed aggregate. The use of liquid binding agents will not meet
mechanical bonding standards and, therefore, shall not be used.
5.9 Mixing:
5.9.1 Only potable water shall be used.
5.9.2 Uniformity from batch to batch is to be ensured by measuring water consistently from
batch to batch and by mixing each batch the same amount of time.
5.9.3 Only enough water should be added to bring the material to a smooth lump-free
consistency (as determined by the manufacturer).
5.9.4 The mixing process should start by adding 2/3 of the mixing water to the mixer. The
appropriate amount of pool finish should be added and then the remaining 1/3 water
should be added bringing the mixture to a workable consistency.
6.0 APPLICATION OF THE FINISHED PRODUCT
6.1 After exposed aggregate has been properly mixed, it may be trowel or spray applied
over a dampened substrate. Recommended thickness is ¼” to 3/8”.
6.2 Pool finishes are designed to be a monolithic coating. Sufficient personnel should be
employed to eliminate cold joints. If the pool must be completed in phases, predetermined
stopping points must be used, such as tile lane markers, etc.
6.3 Once the surface of the pool finish has set hard enough to allow light foot traffic, remove the
“cream” or “fat” to expose the quartz aggregate by water washing with a soft bristle broom or
soft sponge and water. The timing of the water wash can only be determined at the jobsite
taking into consideration the factors of heat, humidity, and substrate suction.
8 | Page Invitation to Bid 201 8 -Jan -01
6.4 After the finish has been water washed, the applicator may elect to clean the “haze” off the
surface by washing with a 50/50 solution of muriatic acid and water. The experienced
applicator will determine when an acid wash is needed.
6.5 It is acceptable to wait until the following day to acid wash, but the finish must be water
washed the same day as application to ensure adequate quartz exposure.
6.6 If the entire finishing process is completed in one (1) day, fill the pool immediately. If you elect
to leave the pool open until the next day to complete an acid wash, fill the pool immediately
upon completion of the acid wash.
6.7 Exposed aggregate finish shall not be applied during rain and any material, which has been
newly placed, shall be protected in the event of rain by canvas, plastic, or other film. All surfaces
will be troweled to a smooth, dense hard finish including radii. Flat surfaces will be made “flat.”
Material will be brought to level with large trowels during initial application.
6.8 No “sponging” of compound radii or steps will be done. Excess tempering of the finish for late
troweling will be avoided. The finished surface shall be free of stains, discoloration from trowel
burns, streaking, trowel marks, and cat faces before the pool is filled with water.
7.0 FILLING THE POOL
After the finish has achieved its initial set, the pool will be gradually filled with water. Care will
be used so that fill water does not wash directly against any newly finished surface. The pool
will be filled without interruption to help avoid dirt rings. It shall be the owner’s responsibility
to provide suitable water for initial filling of the pool. Care must be taken that the water does
not contain excessive amounts of iron, manganese, or other suspended metals, which may
stain the newly applied finish. The contractor will provide a chelating chemical, which will be
added to the water during the fill process to help avoid precipitation of solids, which may be
present in the water.
8.0 START-UP
Upon fill-up and start-up of the filter system, pool water will be treated with metal
sequestering agents and then balanced to National Spa and Pool Institute standards. Initial
brushing and vacuuming of the pool will be performed by the contractor.
9.0 STORAGE
Inventory shall be turned regularly and kept dry. Bagged product shall be kept dry from all
forms of moisture, both direct and indirect, to ensure for maximum product usage,
uniformity, and productivity.
9 | Page Invitation to Bid 201 8 -Jan -01
10.0 WARRANTY
10.1 The contractor shall provide to the owner a full five (5) year warranty on labor against
failure caused by delamination, cracking, or spalling and a full five (5) year manufacturer’s
warranty on the material.
10.2 The effectiveness of this product depends upon its proper application and the condition and
preparation of the surface to which it is applied.
10.3 Exposed aggregate should be applied over surfaces prepared as previously described.
11.0 MAINTENANCE
The long-term performance of exposed aggregate will be directly proportional to the care
taken during the filling process, the first ninety (90) days of pool maintenance and routine
consistent maintenance.
11.1 Start-up procedures should be followed as recommended by Pool Products used.
