    New Pool Build: Scottsdale, Arizona - Pool + Kitchen + Putting Green

    Thank you Boomersooner. I really like how it turned out. I can't wait to see it with the StoneScapes Aqua Blue mini pebble and water. Now on the water wall feature and the scuppers and stacked stone.

    New Pool Build: Scottsdale, Arizona - Pool + Kitchen + Putting Green

    The pool build has been on hold for about a month now, while I finished landscaping the front yard and working on some hardscape (BBQ and Island) in the backyard. The tile team made it out this week and installed our waterline tile and spa tile. Everything is grouted and I love it. Next week...

    What did you use to waterproof the positive/negative side of a raised spa?

    New Pool Build: Scottsdale, Arizona - Pool + Kitchen + Putting Green

    Not much new and exciting to report on the build this week. I am still "Bonding" with my pool shell and watering it every few hours. I hooked up sprinklers and an automatic timer to be as efficient as possible and patiently waiting for the cure period.

    Planning a new pool and backyard build, Phoenix, AZ

    I love your design and this is coming together quickly. We just shot our shotcrete yesterday and it is fun to see the actual shape/shell of your pool. When are you getting your shotcrete? I am excited to watch this build. Have you decided on your pool line tile and interior finishes? Are...

    New Pool Build: Scottsdale, Arizona - Pool + Kitchen + Putting Green

    The Shotcrete team was out and prepping for the Concrete at 5:00 this morning. I had to run into the office at the last minute, thank goodness for Uber since the Concrete Pump was blocking the driveway and thankful that my husband was able to stay home and monitor the progress and answer any...
