TV Mount Issue

TV Mount Issue

I purchased a full-motion mount for my 75" TV, and it has worked great. I could slide the TV an inch or two as needed to center it on the wall. My contractor made sure the wall plate was mounted into the wood studs, but it is slightly off center. I guess he was worried about the lugs being too far to one side or the other.

I recently upgraded my TV to an 85". The TV weighs a pound less, and I am using the same mount, but the mounting rails that support it barely accept the 600 x 400 VESA format. The new TV is off-center by about two inches because of the wall plate placement.

I don't want to move the wall plate or disturb the installation. The original mount was made by Mounting Dream and said to accommodate up to a 90" TV. I don't need a new mount, just longer rails. I was thinking of purchasing their 94" mount, which supports 800 x 400 VESA, and swapping the rails from one mount to another. Has anyone else ever run into this? The mount is in the photo.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated. I would hate to disturb the current mount and have to drill more holes in the tile. The height is perfect; it is just off by about two inches.

I know the wall plate is not level. I gave him hell for that at the time.

Pool Coping Options

My saltwater, vinyl-lined, in-ground cement pool is about 10 years old, and we are in the northeastern US. We used Unilock pavers for the patio and travertine for the coping. One of the travertine coping pieces is beginning to deteriorate. Before I pay to have the one piece replaced, does anyone have experience with this material? We were told longevity would be an issue, but my wife liked the look, so we did it anyway. Most of the coping appears in good shape, but the comments we received during design (longevity) haunt me.

I would rather replace all the coping with another material when we replace the liner next year than have to swap out a piece of coping every year. Any experience/advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Here are some pictures: They are not great. Trying to avoid dropping my phone into the pool.
