New pool build thread - Humble, TX

[martinkennedy]

I agree with everyone else, the travertine looks great. See if you can get them to make your skimmer covers out of travertine,

 

[Screwly]

Thanks Martin! That's actually a great idea. Are they able to do that?

 

[kimkats]

Oh yes SOME are able to do that. They will drill two holes in it for your fingers. Looks great! You can also buy fancy covers. Here is the link.

That travertine is a thing of beauty! Love the way it turned out!

Pebble sheen got applied today and fire pit got its travertine. Water starts going in tomorrow. Still have landscaping and sprinklers to do but I'm glad we are almost done with the pool!

That is SO cool! LOVE the glow in the dark tile!

That fire pit is PRETTY!

I can't wait to see the plaster after it gets washed!

Make sure they wrap a cloth around the end of the water hose AND it goes right at the main drain.

Pool filling up with water! Also got tv and outdoor speaker installed. Automated pergola is next!

 

[Marlahoutex]

Is your outdoor tv a regular tv and is it under a covered area? I would like one but we have no covered area for it.

 

[Screwly]

My outdoor tv is an indoor but in a enclosure called tvshield which has a fans and is weatherproof. It is also under the patio and not in direct sunlight.

Decking looks fantastic and I love the finish and the glow in the dark tiles!

 

[Screwly]

Thx Casey!
