Thank you! A couple more pics. Have the backfill done and all the bonding complete. Going to start the decking forms in a couple of days. Hope to have the concrete done in the next week or so. Then I am going to reshape all the back yard. Funny, the trees in the picture look like they are next to the pool, but they are over 125 feet away. All my wind blows towards those trees and I have no trees on the other side of my land. Never get any leaves, etc on the patio. Guess that's a good thing!R_Willis said:Looking good so far!
The sidewalk looks to be "floating" in the air in the one picture. Hehehe
I'm in Southern Ohio also.
Thanks! That's all pea gravel still, so not too much has gotten into the pool. I've been vacuuming about every 2 days.diyindux said:Lookin' good! I'm still backfilling mine, but I have the diving board installed and the kids have been swimming in it for weeks. I'm picking up the coping tonight and should have the pavers down by the weekend.
From the looks if your pictures, I'll bet your having fun vacuuming up sand too!
Actually, It is probably smarter to do it the way you guys are so don't be disappointed. You won't have to worry about anything going into your pool with a nice clean deck around it when you are getting ready to fill! I am pouring my concrete all the way over into the pool using Stegmeier forms. I am worried sick about stuff getting into the pool, but I will take all necessary precautions and hope for the best.amytude said:We are doing concrete before the liner. Didn't know if this was common or not. I don't think we will get a single swim day in this season. So disappointing for us.
Those are Jandy deck jets. I pre-plumbed everything for them. I know there are cheaper knockoffs out there, but mine will be imbedded in the concrete deck so the kids can stand on them, etc. I created a loop so if they stand on one, the others will go higher, etc.blakestretch said:What did you use for the jets shooting into the pool? Like the way the look just didn't want to pay what my PB wanted to charge for them. I have 3 flower beds around the pool apron and am thinking of making my own jets/stream to shoot into the pool.
