How To Remove A Diving Board

JodieM

Our insurance co sent us a nice policy counterfoil notice unless the diving lath was removed. Nosotros complied and took it down and sent the required proof photos. Now they desire united states of america to build something to encompass the exposed electrical box and bolts and send more proof photos. Our dilemma is we are only going to alive in this firm i more than twelvemonth and we do not want to invest much coin to make the area safe.. ie cutting concrete, re-run electric, etc. Has anyone else had this happen? What did you do? Tin can anyone share pictures? Any ideas would be helpful. Thank you.

How about a minor planter box made of cedar 2x6s?

I was kinda thinking that as well. Do you think information technology would await awkward to have a planter box in front end of landscaping?

Another option is to identify a storage bench there - similar beneath. Y'all could cut out surface area in bottom to allow the bolts/electric, and so embrace them inside. Can buy many plastic models on amazon and elsewhere, or could build one.

If you don't mind, why did they want to cancel. Was there something wrong with the board itself? Our insurance did non even become upward when nosotros installed our pool with the diving lath.

I'd grind the bolts off virtually affluent (don't want to mark up the concrete). Then I'd attempt to drill them out and then patch the hole or if drilling doesn't work paint the exposed commodities head that was ground flush. And so I'd remove the outlet and pull the wire and disconnect information technology from console. Then I'd remove what conduit i tin can from the concrete, down an inch or so and and so patch hole.

Why is in that location an electric outlet below where the diving board was?

Was this a spontaneous change in their policy or was it the consequence of a claim? Which company? Our insurer didn't even take notation of our diving board (i mentioned in for the quote and he said "doesn't matter").

I'd grind the bolts off almost affluent (don't desire to marker up the physical). And then I'd endeavor to drill them out and then patch the hole or if drilling doesn't work paint the exposed bolt caput that was ground flush. Then I'd remove the outlet and pull the wire and disconnect it from panel. And then I'd remove what conduit i tin from the physical, down an inch or and then and then patch pigsty.

That would be my route likewise. It'south going to exist faster and cheaper than any other solution. I am intrigued by the need for an electric outlet under the diving board myself.

I think that electric box is for the wet nich pool calorie-free.

Our pools are identical!! The electric box is for the pool light. I'1000 waiting for my ins co to exercise the same. My first ins co canceled me unless I removed the diving lath. Too much of a hazard I guess. I changed companies instead. When it happens and I'k sure information technology will, I'll put a bench there to sit down on and also embrace my lite unit.

well in that case I would LEAVE the bolts and use them to secure the storage box.

Weird that they wanted you to remove it.

We switched our Insurance from State Farm to Progressive. (Long story why and I won't diameter you with that info) Nosotros alive in Georgia. Progressive (represented by a company called ASI) sent someone out to look at our property near 2 months after we signed with them to report back to their underwriters. (Mutual exercise) Information technology was noted that we had a diving board and ASI deems a diving board to much risk so they asked us to remove it and show proof. When we did not become to it in a timely manner (2weeks, sheesh give a daughter a break, we were away on holiday when they called with the removal asking) we got the cancellation discover along with a refund check. Long story brusk, we've at present complied by removing the lath and submitting photos. Underwriting was non satisfied and we were told to remove the bolts (tripping/foot injury hazard) but could exit the power box as long as we comprehend it with something large people have to walk around (due to it being set into poured concrete) - yes it goes to the pool light. I fought them on removing the bolts as I want to supersede the diving lath when we sell the house in a year or then or at least give the new owners the pick of using it if their homeowners insurance allows.
I really like the storage box idea for my patio cushions. Husband and I are going to Home Depot tomorrow. I will mail service our decision equally we need to submit more than pictures for approval early next week.

It was a result of the company finally sending their field person out to do an in person inspection of our property and reporting dorsum to underwriting. We had recently switched insurance companies. Our previous visitor had no effect with our diving board.

Sorry for all that. I live in Georgia as well. Wrote new policy with Auto-Owners Insurance. They sent out inspector and there was no problem with diving board (10' - can run into fourth dimension in profile picture). Insurance quote was the same with or without the pool.

I tin can come across the logic in making you lot remove the bolts. If you remove them, it's highly unlikely you lot volition just slap the lath dorsum upward. Ins. cos. are all over the board on this one. Sometimes it the primary, sometimes its the umbrella that has the problem. Our primary was fine, but the umbrella company said no. We re-placed all our coverage (for less money and amend coverage) so the diving board could remain. But we are staying hither and specifically built a diving puddle - and then the effect was different.

Concur on grinding off the bolts and putting a very large pot over it. I'd cut out the bottom to fit the electrical box and so place a solid plastic container upside down over the box (within the pot) to continue information technology from being saturated in wet soil. Then plant some overnice flowers!

Ah. I have Country Farm and it's never been an outcome. Guess I should stick with them for the time being.

put the board back and switch homeowners. if they sent you a refund cheque, should be pretty simple right? endeavour allstate, they beat state farm for me and accept bang-up coverage.

if that electrical box is your pool light, you cannot remove it.
