They finished the tile work, relaid new pipe, installed three LEDs and started to frame the concrete. They are pouring the patio concrete tomorrow and the pool decking on Monday. The retaining walls around the patio are my own work
Thanks, zethacat! Still need to put on the cap.
Kimkats, my wife was the one home and took the picture. She took our before they did the brim finish which is why it looks so smooth. I was a little surprised the was no expansion joint, I figure they are the experts! I guess it's not like a driveway and won't have a few thousand pounds parked on it.

Keep the pictures coming.. Not that I would personally want to have to do this project, I like watching other people do it
They did cut the expansion joint today on the patio and they are getting ready to pour the pool decking!
When we bought the house we didn't know we'd be doing this much work to fix this poolKeep the pictures coming.. Not that I would personally want to have to do this project, I like watching other people do it
hopefully it will be good to go for a long time!

Finished the concrete! The only thing left is the inside pool refinish / diamond brite.
Thank you, it is a slate finish with silver-grey color and basalt accent/coping (innotech brand). Should have taken a picture before the dirty footprints
