So long story short, we built a pool in Maryland last year and I got an offer to move overseas, etc and we took it, now we are in Puerto Rico (very close to family)... We sold the house pre covid-19 (fortunately) and we were able to get about 75-80% of what I paid for the pool so that was better than nothing.

We did a diy pool in the low $40k here are the details:

Small sunshelf 15" deep
bench seating at deep end and behind waterfalls


Plumbing
5 returns
1 skimmer
2 main drain
1 spa drain
All piping is 2" sch40

Equipment

Hi Neto, I am looking for a company out of PR for shotcrete on my pool. I saw your 2019 post and what happened there. Can you recommend a company I can call or at least tell me who did that job so I do not use them? Best, -Marianne***********
