Hi,
Been lurking awhile as my wife and I have been discussing getting a pool. Finally decided with the interest rates so low to refinance the house and start a pool. Started getting bids from PB's the last week of April. We have finally decided on a PB that did one of our neighbors pools and is also the personal friend of that neighbor. Great guys and easy to work with.
We just gave them the go ahead on Saturday so they should be lining up the applications and permits today. Probably be 30 days until it gets through our HOA and they can start digging. Now the wait begins...
I'll start including pics as soon as there is any to share. In the meantime I have included the specs and the blueprint.
BTW, great site. It has been an immeasureable help in our choices of equipment and style.
