    Thank you. Yes keeping it all fenced in turned out to be great for us. We have 6 Grandchildren and more to come. we just leave the gate propped open when we're out enjoying it. Sadly this pic was this past weekend. :( Come on spring!

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    Well its been a year I guess since I posted. It took until June or so to get finished up. 8 months and 3 pool builder/contractors later it actually turned out pretty good. Took the rest of my hair and 10 years off my patience but its done. Here are some pics thru the summer.

    Hayward ColorLogic problem

    My inground vinyl liner pool is less than 1 yr old. I have 2 Hayward colorlogic lights. Yesterday I was in the pool with scuba equipment(just playing around getting ready for an upcoming trip). While I was in the pool the timer for the lights came on. One light was on fine and the other was not...

    New Liner Problem

    I realize thats how it was originally made. But its been installed, rained in, would have to be removed and sent to be cut and glued for repair, then repackaged and back to me. I see it as too many moving parts in that equation for it to last like if there had never been a mistake made. I paid...

    Well the money had already stopped. I think it might have been a little more the "well thought out words", you know the ones like " I'm about ready to turn this over to my attorney if you don't get back to work on my freakin pool!" Or maybe it was just my turn. Who knows.

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    Well after a few well thought out words with the PB, and letting him know there would be no more money until work got caught up... they decided they could work under the lights during a recent nice weather weekend. Got a lot done and I'm beginning to think they may get it done after all. Getting...

    Faux Waterfall?

    Looks like nobody ever responded to this. Has anyone out there seen the Universal Rocks waterfall in person? They look really good on website. I'm considering one as the price seems really good and can be self installed. Can't find a single review online except for people with small ones for...

    No updates for a while because not much happened for a while. Pool builder problems. No-shows, bad weather, no money, etc.was beginning to think I was screwed. But a recent flurry of activity and progress has given me hope again. He promises he's going to get it done before spring. I thought I...

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    This shot is from our back deck (which faces dead west) looking across the pool towards the horizon. Nice after sunset sky tonight. This view would have been just a wall of trees a couple weeks ago before we had a dozer do a little clearing. Used to have to be somewhere else to see sunset. This...

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    Not much happening last few days. Weather and a broken track on the Bobcat! Did get some land cleared behind pool area to make for 2-3 more hours of sunlight and a nice sunset. Back of house faces dead west. Broken track on Bobcat. Broken track leads to a rollback tow truck coming to pick up...

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    The bottom step would end up about 8 ft from pool edge if coming down from center. We are leaning the way you said, down the side. We're just so used to coming down the middle for 10+ years. The side will be more convenient from driveway. The middle seems to be more convenient to pool area, but...

    New Member Build in Tennessee

    Before its too late, trying to decide on new stairs. Do we go back with them basically where they were as in the above ground pic? The upper deck will be the 4th wall of the pool fence so the steps would lead right onto pool deck. OR do we move them to the left hand side coming down towards...

    So they are supposed to be pouring the concrete collar around bottom of pool walls today and pour the walk in steps(to be liner covered). They say tomorrow they will start running the plumbing. What should i be on the lookout for as to plumbing. Ive told them I want 2" lines instead of std 1.5"...

    Wife sent me a couple she took today. Tiki hut will eventually be lowered to new pool deck height. Some of that slope near the upper deck will be shaved down but obviously still need some retaining wall.

    PB showed up bright and early this morning and had all the rest of the equipment he said he had ordered. Pretty much all but the liner and safety cover are onsite now anyway. Glad i didnt say anything to him about it. I'm thinking what you said pooladdict. He at least seems to be "on it" so...

    dang cluck! I just read your whole thread of your project and wish I hadn't! I sure hope that's not the norm for builders. I will make it a point to be sure all the stuff we talk about "fixing" get fixed before the $$draws are paid out! And I'm going to tell my guy I want to see all the...
