    Re-tile and new coping
    Hello-

    Gunite pool repair help seems to be minimal on the web. I would like to know if replacing both coping and tile what to do first, the coping or the tile and why?

    Thanks

    The answer is the coping needs to be done first since you need to attach your forms to the pool walls where the tile will go. This is also important since you need to measure all of your tile from the lowest point in the bottom of the coping to ensure that your tile lines are all even and can be installed without cutting.

    I hope this information is helpful.
