RE: Pool Maintenance
BACKGROUND: The City swimming pool was repainted in 200 by Dayco Painting; upon
inspection of the swimming pool painted surfaces were observed to be thin and deteriorating in
several areas. Corners of the swimming pool were observed to be cracked and chipped needing
repair.
The zero entry down ramp into the pool has become non slip resistant in areas creating a slip
hazard. The proposed swimming pool work will include sand blasting of the old surface, power
washing, epoxy patch cracks where needed, apply two coats of recommended paint and adding
sand to the paint at the zero entry ramp location for needed traction. All lanes and targets will be
repainted.
Staff received three bids for the project:
• DAYCO PAINTING at $24,370.00
• BACKYARD POOLS at $25,500.00
* FIXLER PAINTING LLC, DBA at $26,950.00
FINANCE OFFICE AND BUDGET BACKGROUND: Funding for this project would come
from the "Facility Improvements" budget.
REVIEWED BY AND RECOMMENDATION: Staff has reviewed all three bids and contacted
neighboring municipalities and "Larkin Aquatics" for recommendations on products and
application by swimming pool painting contractors. Based on the information received by staff,
the paint products submitted by Fixler Painting with their bid were found to have a superior
performance over and above the paint products submitted by Dayco Painting and Backyard Pools.
These findings were based on the recommendations received from Larkin Aquatics and The City
of Overland Park, who both indicated that the useful life of the paint material included with the
Fixler Painting bid had provided a durable high quality surface. In 200 the Riverside pool was
painted by "Dayco Painting" using the same recommended paint submitted in the current bid and
such paint has not met expectations.
Base on the information received and the relatively minor difference in the price between the
Fixler Painting bid and the Dayco Painting bid, staff recommends Fixler Painting as the best bid
for the pool painting project.
