Owner / Builder Build - Las Vegas..Pics and Prices Inside!

[n240sxguy]

Ok. I learned something new today. I must've skipped over that detail since I have a vinyl pool. I saw that you had to brush it, just not that you had to wait to get in it.

Hello! I also live in NW Las Vegas and am considering an Owner/Builder build for our pool. I am very nervous about taking this on an would love to pick your brain about your process and experience as well as get the names of your subcontractors. Your pool looks amazing!

Wouldn't an acid bath after application been an easier way to get the pool started? My pebble finish looked like that and it was night and day after the scrub down the day after application. Great price and work BTW!

Looks awesome. Any new pictures of the final product? You must've been enjoying your pool

Hi! I live in Providence and I'm just about to start my owner builder pool. Just getting bids. If it's not too much trouble, can you send me the subs you used if you recommend them please? Thank you!

PM sent! Hope all goes well, let me know if you need any help / recommendations!

Nice build thanks for the information.

Hello, I am interested in doing my own build and don't know where to start. Where can I get pool plans, structural engineering, any advise or recommendations would be helpful. Thanks.

Another local here...sent you a PM for info and appreciate all the tips you have posted in this tread...very helpful!

Any current pics of your pool and landscaping? I love the colors and materials that you went with.

 

[bulldogz400]

Will send a PM today! I'll send you what I have and that will definitely help you in the right direction.

I will post some current pictures soon - added more decking and some landscaping is going in this week!

 

[bulldogz400]

Added more deck - the water is super cloudy here because of the Cool Deck over-spray. Lots of landscaping coming this week - finally turning it into a usable back yard as opposed a a dirt lot.



The only time I like the pool looking green:

wow, that's a cool pic!

 

[cwescapexlt4x4]

cool and creepy! Good cooler weekend to be planting too!

 

[pooldv]

Yeah! That is like swamp thing meets chernobyl. Ack!

 

[Foxy]

Coming right along! Are you going to do grass in the dirt area in front of the pool or?

I just bought a house with a pool in south las vegas, and the pool it has is in rough condition. I need to re-tile,re-deck, and I think the plaster is just about done...so I would like to pebble-tec it. Could you also send me the list of subs you used, I would really appreciate it! Great job on the pool! I hope I have as much success as you did. I built a pool about 9 years ago here in Vegas but lost contacts with all the subs, so I am out of the loop now. Thanks!

Great job & great write up! I'm also in Vegas and looking to DIY. Can you please PM me your list of subs?

Hi! I loved reading about your journey in pool building! I am hoping to start building ours this fall. We are in NW Las Vegas. Would you please pass your list along to me? I'd appreciate it so much. ?

Great write up! Any chance you'd send me the list of contractors you used?
