Nice job. I did something similar, but as usual, I kinda made it hurricane proof. I have nearly 1200lbs of concrete/sand with 4 foot pipes embedded in angles to prevent any movement. Poured the block with embedded bolts (poured two blocks for two 11 foot cantilever umbrellas)... Bolted...

I put the pumps/filters on the side of the house. I also installed a heater/cooler for the pool there as well. I then built a cover to keep it out of the direct weather:

I appreciate the kind remarks. My pvc bathroom walls that I ordered were not up to my standards. I didn't like the way they were supposed to be mounted and there were lots of scratches on the panels. I didn't want to put something up that would bother me so I've decided to custom build them...

I got the bathroom walls here, just not installed yet. I was not happy with the door they built so we are changing it up a bit. I did get the water lines covered up with white pvc material. Looks pretty good: And finished the skirting today:

Finally started skirting in the deck area. I am using PVC fencing material to keep everything maintenance-free:

@Essejm3- I'm probably going to put the amp in a stereo rack that I have in my man cave. I'll just drop the speaker wires under the house with the rest of the wires. And I thank everybody else for their kind remarks. :cheers: The amp is small and I'll stick it on the bottom shelf:

I picked out some decent components within my budget and it plays quite loud and still remains clear and distortion free. It is plenty loud for the whole deck area, but I have another set of speakers on each side of the stairs going up to the deck that provide a different music source to the...

I used all TimberTech products with the exception of the Azek in-deck storage kit. The unit is very well made and I use it to keep my pool hoses, Polaris cleaner, etc. Pic of product- Aluminum support frame installed:

I used a company called Rico Rock.......they seem to have one of the most realistic looking waterfalls. Very happy with mine, I just need to finish it up. http://www.ricorock.com/

Finally started getting some plants in from the nursery. I have well over 100 plants coming along with 8 tons of boulders. It'll be nice to finally get some plants in.

A bathroom was definitely at the top of my list. I have tile floors and they get very slippery when wet and I didn't want anyone getting hurt (or dragging water into the house). Surprisingly, the pvc decking is not slippery at all when wet. I found a landscaper and he'll be starting on the...

Thanks for the compliments. I have grand ideas, just need a bigger money tree :?

I had the plumbing tap back into my household plumbing. I have an isolation valve under my house crawl space that I can use to winterize the bathroom components. The shower just runs onto the pvc deck and drains into a graded gravel/french drain we have under the deck. The 7 foot walls will...

We used TimberTech XLM boards (all pvc) and chose a dark border color of "rustic bark" to go along with the "harvest bronze" boards. My rails have a coastal white post with walnut colored rails and black balusters.

adding pics as fast as I can :-D Got to a point that we had to wait for the spa to arrive......kept working on other ideas I added (outdoor bathroom, more benches, etc.) Bathroom (shower, sink and toilet) area.....waiting for the custom PVC walls to arrive: Decided to make a...
