    Another The Woodlands, TX Build - Finishing touches

    I’ll send you a PM. My landscaper installed the wiring during that part of the project but the lights are from Volt. https://www.voltlighting.com/

    Jumpin' on the Bandwagon in NTX

    The tile work on the spa looks great and I really like how the spillway turned out. I also like all the benches in your design. I’ve enjoyed using those a lot recently with this warm weather.

    26 April 2024 : Construction in progress again!

    Beautiful lot, I’ll be watching this thread too. Whenever I think about an infinity build, I remember this build… https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/new-build-in-south-texas.69725/ Maybe some inspiration for your meeting with the designer.

    LED Landscape lights

    I put two of the Pentair Landscape lights as down lighting on the pergola next to our pool to subtly light up the outdoor kitchen and be able to sync with the pool and control via IntelliCenter. I went this route as I had only two lights to tie into the system. For landscape lighting, I’m just...

    Pool Builder took some Professional Pictures…

    Congrats, moving along quickly which is nice. I can visualize how the spa spillover/trough is integrated now. To my untrained eye most everything looks good, I’m a little curious about the spa jet height compared to the bench but maybe it’s the image/angle of the picture. It seems much lower...

    Abandoned Pool Build, Trying to finish

    Like everyone, I’m sorry to hear about your issues. I’m curious, was the Gunite done over 2 days? It almost looks like there is a seam along the middle of the walls. You mentioned they used some of the rebound in the shell, could that be contributing to your efflorescences if there was a “cold...

    Also, for the rebar, just double check the spacing to compare with your contracted specifications. Is it #3 8” O.C. Or something else?

    Congrats on the progress. I’m definitely no expert and have only limited knowledge so these comments are for my own education too. I’m sure other, more experienced members can chime in with input For the raised, curved wall, I assume the loop is for the 3 deck jets to try to equalize the...

    Another The Woodlands, TX Build - Finishing touches

    Yes, I bought the goal prior to completion of the deck and had their specific anchor installed. It’s about a 2.5”x2.5” square fitting. It came with a rubber cover for when I remove the goal as shown below. Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures of the anchor tied into the deck rebar during the...

    Great looking design and your equipment choices look great. Some of the choices remind me of our design Are you doing anything along the back curve such as a raised wall? How do you plan to incorporate the deck jets?

    Another The Woodlands, TX Build - Finishing touches

    Finally added our basketball goal now that we are using the pool some more. I just wish we could have a break from the rain so we could enjoy it some more… This is the Swim Shape Basketball goal… https://www.swimshapefitness.com/ Now I need to order the volleyball net. I had the anchors...
