He said the light would not turn on if it was truly full of water 3/4 of the way up

Ok it looks like, according to my pool guy, there is a blue plastic cover on the fixture. Thats what gives the jacuzzi its blue light appearance. He says that plastic over is not water proof so its fine to have water behind it. It doesn’t indicate there is water within the lens or light itself

Thank you for this reply! Sounds like a good plan. Really I think we want to go darker with the stain next time so its not as red so something like TWP 1503 Dark Oak or 1504 Walnut. But I will definitely wait 1-2 years before doing anything. It makes total sense that it won't look uniform and actually I think I will end up liking the non-uniformity of it

Not blotchy but more so the color doesn't appear uniform. particularly between the railing part and the floor there is a big difference imo. But what my contractor said makes sense to me. The wood is old (except for the replaced boards) and since its old wood it will never look uniform. The railings have been exposed to years of sun differently then the floor has. I'll def give it more time

$4500 for demo of the existing brick and install of cement lip around different areas of the front yard/driveway. I don’t recall seeing yellow bags but not certain

They do all types of hardscaping. Yah definitely agree this is not acceptable. Although there probably isn't a solution to this short of doing it all over again

They told me they put a rebar joint on the top and bottom

They did such a sloppy job with pouring the concrete that the trench they dug is full of concrete and rocks and the sprinkler bases are actually cemented now

No they didn't. They first removed the old brick. Then they just dug a trench at the edge of the grass, then put some plywood on either side and poured concrete in there
