We are in the middle of a new inground construction and the plumber missed running plumbing for a bubbler which I get happens. They trenched around the perimeter and ran the new plumbing line then cored a hole in the side of the pool (plaster has not been applied yet) and trenched through a step to get the plumbing where it should have gone. My worry is that they used quickcrete to make the repairs. I would think more pool specific product would have been used. I worry both from a structural integrity standpoint and the aesthetics after plaster is applied.

Re: concrete patch
Wouldn't be too worried about structural integrity as there is hopefully more than enough concrete around the penetration to cope but no way would I use quickcrete, I always use a bentonite repair mortar that expands in the the presence of water forming a permanent water tight seal.

I may not give you the answer you want to hear, but I will give an honest opinion of your situation as you decribe it.
