Sheesh...Another week of great weather and zero pool contractors on site....it's this kind of **** that drives everyone batty. I have to say this PB is really testing my nerves...we went with the, because they were the biggest and claimed they don't have the resource issues that small builders have because everything is subbed out...but if we don't track these morons down they will go weeks without communicating.
Got off the phone with them today and they claim the decking folks will be out this week but couldn't give me a date...unreal. This is why I hated our payment plan...5% down, 45% at Gunite, 45% and coping, 5% left till end....so builder has 95% of the money of the pool...and the pool deck, plaster and water left to do, but what can I hold over them...nothing because they have 95% of the money already.
Sorry just had to vent....no pool for Memorial Day that's for sure

Wow your house is huge! The pool looks great and I love your tile selection!
Funny thing, I bought the house for the property (15 acres)...new the house was bigger than my old one (3600sqf) and never really thought much about it. We close on house and need to install a RADON system, guy calls me and says they need to size it based on house SQF....I tell him house if 4-5K sqf....he says that's not what he got from the realtor and I say, oh she has the right info what is it....8500 sqft. I almost spit out my drink...went around and started measuring rooms and stopped after I realized it was right.
Thankfully I have a Geothermal 3 zone system so electric is actually less than my other house, but yes the wife complains that cleaning it is too much, and that's with a housekeeper coming every week to clean one of the floors.
And thanks on the tile selection, we wanted everything a little more muted so it's all Grey Undertones.
