I have a 16,000 gallon pool that has what appears to be a pretty sever infestation of black algae. I have read through all the advice and articles on how to scrub and scrub along with high FC and water balance etc. I have several questions / issues: 1. Does the process on the site as described...

This was a NPT stonescapes pebble finish. I had the same questions as you about the amount of exposed pebble - which is much less than the sample board. I was told by a warrently rep and another installer (not the one I used) that this is normal... and that the samples always have much more...

I just noticed this today. I had a new pebble finish put in back in June/July and have kept the PH around 7.2 till Dec/Jan only recently did I move it up to a more normal level. It is currently 7.5, and my Cal is at 350ppm. I just noticed today some sort of white rings developing around the...

Well he is willing to come back and says he can clean it - but Don't know if he can actually clean it or not. I have been lied too so many times throughout this process I don't know what to believe. Maybe he can fix it - I don't know. But I am terrified that he can't or that he will fix a lot...

So we signed contracts with a PB and a paver guy in March. The project was a resurfacing of an existing pool. New deck, new coping, new plaster, and tile etc. Needless to say - if something could go wrong it has. The project began March 15th and was supposed to take 3 weeks. We only had the...

I am in the process of having my pool remodeled. I have a planter wall along the back of my pool. This wall has a 24inch Polaris fiberfall waterfall on the left and another on the right. In the center there is a matching 48in fiber fall. To make a long story short my PB sent someone out with...

We have 2 old color wheel lights in our pool that are currently not working, they are not leaking and we suspect the bulbs are out. We are considering replacing them with the new color led lights but we are apprehensive to spend any more money as we are already replacing our deck, pool surface...

We are tiling our back will in Norstone's Ochre XL veneer www.norstoneusa.com/products/rock-panels/ochre and are trying to choose a tile that will blend well with it. Anyone who has used this veneer before have any suggestions?

I am confused by your statement, you said that your neighbors pool is lighter than the picture I have at the top and not as deep blue? So the colors is lighter and less blue?, How does it also look like darker lagoon? - I am not exactly sure what you mean by darker lagoon - is there another...

We are remodeling our pool and installing a pebble finish, we will need too choose a color in the next 2 days. Our PB uses stone scapes and we have been leaning towards Midnight Blue. We look at pools over and over and always seem to come back to this same color. But, we are concerned it may...

I have since met withmy PB. He states that he can use any products I like if I find something online that I like he can get it, however he said that all of these products are priced about the same. The price could change and he would let me know if it did. Based on the above post it sounds...

I have planter at the back of my pool. The tile surface on this planter including front back and sides is 78 sq feet. (Don't judge me for the sad state of the pool area, this was taken while the house was vacant before I purchased the home.) I want to resurface the planter with natural stone...

I currently have a a pool that is your tradition gunite with tile around the water line edge. I would like to do a pebble finish with no tile, however the pool contractor is tell me that the pebble finish should never be out of the water. He says that if it is installed out of the water, it...
