Going to plant bushes and flowers. Maybe some yuccas here and there.

Just a normal gate with a pool equipment screen.

Getting very close now.... hopefully tomorrow morning the fence gets closed in a equipment fence goes up. Then inspection and who knows... maybe plaster by the end of the week.

How big is your pool? Pentair gave me a calc to shoot for 4 lumens per sq ft of pool surface. So that is part of what you need to think about. A joonbug99 mentioned - the led color lights tend to put off a lot less lumens then other white lights. Check out the chart below for lumen output...

The top rise is 9 1/2 inches which is really uncomfortable. Not sure what the stone guy was thinking. I wish they would have graded out that section of the yard before building the wall as that was the big problem no one knew how tall the wall and steps would need to be. Good news is they...

They are actually steps but they do look like a bench. The stone guys made the steps too tall and we may have to redo them.

We have walls! This has taken forever but hopefully towards the end of next week we may have water in our pool!

What size are your sheer descents? I really like the back wall. We did something similar but I think my sheers are too small. Oh well - as they say here ... for the next pool (or major renovation).

Congrats!! I hope to be in the same boat by the end of next week! Looks amazing.

Not all areas require chip out. Texas pools are commonly plastered over without a full chip-out. It isn't just laziness on the builder/plaster company. There is serious labor/cost to doing chip out vs bondcoat on existing plaster. I was talking to a co-worker who had to do a chip out which...

Amen to that - I am 51 and I still love diving into pools enough that I am in the process of having my third diving pool. I love the feeling you get as you flip through the air get into the water. It is also great exercise to have a 10 dive in a row competition with the kids...

Wow - thanks for the pics. What color is your plaster? What is the depth of the pool? How did you arrive at four lights in the main body?

It looked like they are going to grout with plaster maybe? I am not seeing any grout there now. The waterline tile has to be exactly level... the coping not so much. I would expect some variance in that gap between the tile and the bottom of the coping. It will be much less noticeable once...

Did you get an answer as to what caused the difference? That might help you with your decision on how to proceed. Did you see the deck get poured? We had a two color stamped deck installed a couple weeks ago. They poured the concrete which was normal grey concrete and then smoothed and...

Looking very nice! I love all the trees in the backyard. Good luck with your deck. Building a pool is a stressful experience, too much money and too many things that can't be easily changed. Hopefully they will be able to make you happy with it.

Tongue and groove cedar. They will also remove the top of the bay window and finish that whole section with tongue and groove.

Thanks for all the suggestions on fans. I do like the Big Rear fans but not sure about the price. That's a bit much but I am sure they are worth it. I don't like the idea of droopy fan blades... hand't thought about that with the larger fans. Anyway shingles are on... I love that they lined...
