They brought in a big truck. It was back in the alley. It took two truck load to empty all the plaster from my pool. They put the plaster in wheelbarrows - then up the ramp - and into the truck
They shoveled all the plaster into buckets. Then they lifted up the buckets to the edge of the pool. Someone then put the plaster from the buckets in the wheelbarrows. Golly, if their backs didn't hurt when they got to my house, I'm sure they hurt now.
This guy jackhammered for 4 1/2 hours.
This guy chipped off all the tile. There were 6 of them working on my pool today. The pool contractor told me it would take at least 6 hours. These guys had it done - cleaned up - and gone in 5 hours. Woohoo!

Wow, I can't believe they got that done that fast!
The whole time I'm looking at those buckets of plaster I'm thinking pathway.
THAT'S GOOD NEWS THAT IT WENT FASTER THAN EXPECTED. HOPE YOU HAVE A NICE EASTER.
In-ground pools, hmm. Strangely enough, we don't have any up here ... two words: "permafrost" and "earthquakes".
Seriously, it's looking good! It's hard to believe they got done so quickly. Amazing!
WOW. they are making great progress. Can't wait to see what mess they make next!!!
Good work. Intense, carrying it all out in buckets.
Good Grief!!! What a job!
Susie's pathway comment is funny...I was thinking along the same lines!!
Send the trucks! LOL
I was thinking about all that back-breaking work and really glad it wasn't my job to remove the plaster. Can't wait to see what happens to your pool next. Great pictures!
Wow - A LOT of work going on in your neck of the woods.
