    Best method for attaching coping stone on steel/vinyl pool

    We just got done with a similar project. You can check my post for pictures. Our coping was approximately 1" thick while the pavers we used were 2" thick (we did pavers on top of concrete). They poured one pad for everything. For the coping around the pool, they poured approximately 8" deep...

    Too big??

    We are in the middle of construction on a 42x16 27x18 true L and everybody that has been over has told us its huge. Then the next sentence out of their mouths is its going to be awesome. Do what makes sense for you and your family.

    Slope to deep end

    The pool is 38x16x27x18 true L. We want to keep the entire 27x18 shallow. Then the dive pool would be the 20x16 section. So there would be 4' coming off the wall, 6' dive box, and then 10' sloping up to the shallow end. Thanks

    Slope to deep end

    I am trying to finalize our pool and was wondering how steep the ramping from shallow end to dive end can be? Right now ours is planned at 2:1 (8'6" to 3'6" in 10ft) however, our PB is saying 3:1 is standard. Does it matter?
