      And 16 years later the substandard polyurea application is rearing its ugly head. The geotextile that he layed over the gunite and sprayed is now coming loose. The blowhard told me it was a lifetime warranty….yea right.

      I'm so sorry! A few years really can expose how well a job is done. I imagine Jeff Dunkel isn't still in business?
      Is it leaking or just cosmetic?

      If you walk on the bottom like I just did to work on my skimmer the polyurea coated textile feels like you are walking on a pillow. In some areas it’s a good 8 inches above the gunite that it’s supposed to be stuck too. We’ve decided that if it becomes an issue, our pond will go bye bye. I love it to death but the amount of money to fix it would be a change that I’m retired. He’s long gone, Steve.

      Still up and running! Replaced an impacted Sac Koi Advantage 15. I had built the pump house after the filter system was installed so couldn’t take it apart, replaced it with an AlphaNano filter and all is well. Thank you
