HERE WE GO!!!!!! Dig Day!!!!! I will be posting Pics, specs, and Information here along the way. I'm currently struggling BIG TIME with the salt/chlorine decision. I have only a few days to put that change order in, so we will see how it turns out. - My wife really wants the saltwater pool...

Hello, I have a 20x40 inground pool going in. Currently the walls have been put up, plumbing is done, concrete lock is poured and they are just finishing the floor today. I noticed the panels on the shallow end weren’t straight before the concrete was poured. The pool builder came out and said...

I am doing a new pool build in Queen Creek (Southeast Phoenix), Its a 16 x 32 roman style, 6 ft deep in the middle, with a baja step - no spa. I used BYOP .net based in Mesa, worked with Roy for design and John for equipment. Made a few changes along the design path with no extra charges...

This is a new pool and the plaster was installed on November 12. The plaster looks horrible. We have brushed it daily. It hasn't gotten better.

I will do my best to outline the points of my overall experience here and keep the story short. Initial Research I've never had a pool before. Total n00b. 4 bids from the area. Chose to go with one that is well known in this exact city. They've been in this city for 40+ years. Lots of great...

We started planning our pool back in January and had a final design done within a couple weeks. Due to some issues with a land survey (long story), our dig date was scheduled and started on May 8th. Luckily for us we have a large enough back yard with very easy access so the excavation crew made...

I am in the early stages of building a new home with a pool. I have attached a very rough sketch of my thoughts/plans for the pool. Wanting a sports pool with no deep end. Plans for now are 4' at each end and 5' in the middle, gunite 18' x 36' with 12' x 12' offset for a sun shelf and steps...

After trying with multiple builders unsuccessfully here in Indiana to get a pool built before Fall of 2021, I've decided to DIY an 18x40 vinyl lined diving pool. I'll be GC and find subs for most of the work. I have quotes from Royal and Pool Warehouse so I'll probably go with one of those...

Guys, I am requesting thoughts on using one variable speed pump (Pentair - IntelliFlo VSF 011056) for the following pool/spa combo build; * Pool - 25k - 30k gallons * Spa - 8-10 jets w/ spillover * Waterfall (90gpm) * (2) Bubblers * (3) Laminars Would a single VSP be a great option for this...

Hey all, Around the end of March we began a large deck extension project. I live in Rockland County NY, and it's not called Rockland for no reason. Our property is jagged, wet, sloped, and it took 2 months to hammer out the foundation for the house. Lots and lots of rock. So, since I don't have...
