We ran into the same situation. Pebble tec on Friday, acid was suppose to be on Saturday, but it started lightly raining before they finished pebble tecing our pool. It poured 5 inches of rain later that night and thundered and lightening into the mid morning. The man came by first thing Saturday morning and said it was raining too hard. He set up two submersable pumps which ran non-stop to prevent ground water from coming up and staining the new finish. Everything worked out, but every pebble tec rep that came out told me a different story....no-one ever said it was bad to wait, they actually said it was good to let it completely dry before acid washing. (My situation was that it was raining) They knew I was worried so I think they said things to make me feel better. They said we would get a better acid wash if it wasnt raining. The acid man who came out Saturday morning was pretty sure he wasnt going to be back until Monday. And thats exactly what happened. They do start filling after they acid wash. I think pebble sheen is a different story because of the polishing they do. I am surprised they are not doing your acid wash on Monday, why the wait till Tuesday??? See if they can come take the surry box on Saturday, if it sits too long it could kill your lawn.

thanks gk5040- they are not coming monday because its a holiday. did your finish come out nice? i am so wanting to get this pool done but i dont want to hurry anything if it affects the quality. supposedly, these are all certified installers and should be following pebbletec guidelines for installation.

It came out great. If you look for my post in the beginning of June, I was concerned about mottling. (I was convinced it was because they waited to acid wash, but it was normal and is undetectable once the water rose above those areas) After it was filled and the chemicals balanced it looked beaufiful. Its amazing how blue it kept getting after the chemicals were added.

I forgot about the holiday:) I am not sure where you live but I would talk to them about "what if it rains". Like I mentioned, they brought a submersable pump and we had one (so we had 2 running) non stop to keep the nasty smelly ground water from leaving a ring on the bottom of the pool. At the time, it had not rained here in months, then we got 5 inches over night...the night my PT needed to dry. Our biggest fear was our pool "popping". Ours was a remodel and we didnt want to leave it empty for a long period of time, especially after it rained....we wanted it filled back up, that was really what bothered us the most. Everyone reassured us that as long as the bottom drain was unplugged we wouldnt have a problem....I wanted to believe them, but what we really wanted was the plug closed, and the pool refilled! What color are you doing? Here is a pic of Tahoe Blue.

i am in south florida and this is our rainy season. we are contracted for standard pt so our choices are limited. my wife wants the carribean blue. your pool looks great. i will ask my builder about the pumps for the water build up.
