    Do you have a table in your pool?

    It is a 2" thick slab of stone.

    DFW Pool Build

    Oh yea, been brushed at least twice a day both days. Actually got in 3 today. We swam all day long until the thunderstorms bubbled up. Then we went back in this evening. We used Seahorse Pools & Spas.

    Finally got plaster and water yesterday. Here's the starting shot of the water meter. I had 2 hose bibs going and then my 1" sprinkler main with a 3/4" hose on it. Started filling at 11:00 AM And of course I forgot to take a picture after the fill finished. It...

    What problems have you had with yours? Do you know who did yours and what product they used specifically? Got any pics of what happened?

    That's cool, hopefully the weather starts cooperating with your build. Other than the deck snag, we have had no problems at all on the two pools they have built for us.

    Thank you, we are really pleased with how everything has turned out. The rolled neck is a nice touch. It's so much more comfortable than the coping hitting you in the back of the neck. Had a minor issue with the deck finish but the builder is stepping up and making it right. We went with the...

    DFW Pool Build

    Well, got some more work done yesterday. And in even better news, I got a text telling me that they weren't going to do stone on the steps. They are going to level them out with the deck coating they are going to be putting on all of the deck. Now we got the tough decision of picking...

    That's the route we are taking. Doing it on both sets of steps so it matches.

    DFW Pool Build

    We have unfortunately hit our first snag and it's a big one. Well, two big ones actually. First was they jacked the finish up pretty bad in some spots. We had a rock salt finish on the last pool and like everything about it except some areas would get really slick when wet. They were...

    Deck pour got done last week on Wednesday. Don't have any pics of it after getting the salt washed off. Went and picked out the stone for the retaining walls also.

    Thanks, we like it a lot. That's our master bedroom. We will be adding a set of french doors. No, it's hard to see it in the pictures but there is a retaining wall all around those areas that will make a planter. We will basically be making plant railings.

    Big surprise was that the decking was all formed up. There's some tweaks that need made since the forming crew screwed up but it should all be fixed today. Hoping for a pour first thing in the morning tomorrow.

    Understand completely, they did an awesome job. Just made the comment since our last pool the tile and coping was all done in one day. - - - Updated - - - Yesterday was a busy day with a nice surprise when we got home. Tile and coping was finished. The spa came out fantastic. These pics...

    Here's a shot of it with a bunch of rain water. Electrical guys wrapped up last Friday and the tile and coping guys got started but aren't the fastest crew. They got the water line tile set in the pool and that was it Friday. Saturday was wasted since one of the guys was having a baby...

    DFW Pool Build

    Electrical is happening today. Tile and coping guys are backed up with all the rain and I don't have a date for them yet. How did they attach your table top to the pedestal in your pool? Ours will be a 42" square of 2" leuders and I'm nervous that if it ever lets loose someone could lose a...

    And after passing inspection, gunite was shot April 13, 2016. I had to water for a few days before the rains really hit DFW this weekend and we now have water up to the floor level of the table area.

    Plumbing and Steel started and finished April 9, 2016. One funny thing is that we caught one of the plumbers putting my propane tank back in the grill since theirs ran out. I will never forget his smile and insistence that it was OK. :D Couple days later the pool builder brought me a nice...

    We're finally super close to pulling the trigger and getting under contract. All I'm waiting for is a breakdown on the exact equipment we are getting but here is what I have so far. Anything stand out to anyone? I need to get it in writing but the builder has mentioned possibly doing an even...
