Chicago Residential Transformation
A private pool received a patterned 80-mil finish with a custom sun deck and seamless skimmer-flange detailing.
The existing condition
What the crew walked into.
The compact urban pool included a sun deck, steps and skimmer transition that needed to read as one intentional finish rather than separate patched details.
Field execution
How the system was rebuilt.
An 80-mil patterned membrane was fitted to the pool geometry over the specified protection layer, with the sun deck and skimmer flange detailed into the completed surface.
Scope of work
Detailed for long-term performance.
Each item was coordinated as part of the same waterproofing assembly—not treated as a separate finish detail.
