You had some skills in your yard when they did the tile!!!
It’s been really neat watching the guy work, definitely impressed! We’re being asked to pick out grout now, would love any thoughts with our tile
Here some ideas on the grout:
-white will make each tile pop
-light to medium gray will allow the tile to blend in with each other more
Both are very pretty! You can ask to play with the grout sticks so you can see what each one looks like.
Now saying that I want you to think about BLACK grout! SAY WHAT??? Here is a pic from a build that did black and it is OH SO PRETTY!! It brings the colors up a notch or 3!!

I haven’t updated in awhile, but we’re on day 53 of the build. There has been steady daily progress, besides dealing with some rare Atlanta snow days. All waterline tile is grouted & coping is in around the pool. They finished up the wall stone & are working on the wall coping now. It sounds like all tile work will be done by early next week & concrete comes next. Looking forward to seeing it all come together!
