Really a thunderstorm - come on - guys came today and drained and cleaned the pool to get ready for pebble in the morning. Thank goodness we have a huge fish tank so my husband has a little pump to drain it - yep he spent the evening redraining our pool again. Just looked at the weather another...

Finally some new news...Just heard today that the plaster crew will be here today to clean out the pool to prepare for pebble tomorrow. Fence guy will be here today to repair fences...Hopefully were filling this hole soon!

Ok guys sorry for the long wait...here is the latest: - - - Updated - - - The cleanup crew came this morning and took all the trash, laid out sand and prepared my front yard for sod...All thats left is to add the Wetedge New Zealand Blue pebble next week oh and to drain that murky water...

Thanks Helen and Marla - I cant believe how fast this is all coming together!

What a beautiful place to put a pool!

SantaCruzpool - Thats some reassuring news...that we we are doing the right thing of going with a lighter finish - I will let you all know if it works out in the end. When i talked to my pool guy today he told me that it may change the temp by 2-3 degrees not the 6-8 that i had read on the...

The only difference I could find is that Satin matrix has smaller pebbles... I also like both the Antigua and Northshore Caribbean. They do have a showroom but he is here almost every day during the week - I will ask him to bring me 2 pearl and 2 satin to see them in the pool and also to feel...

Thanks Amanda - I am still trying to understand the difference between the two. They are both the same price point - Do you know the magical answer?

Yes need to stick with Pearl Matrix or Satin Matrix - can't afford Prism. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too Kim - Its so soothing to sit outside - plus you don't feel like everyone is hearing your conversation - which is really nice! OK TFP Members - I really need help with the wetedge pebble color...I have been all over WETEDGE site - I have searched this site - When we first designed the...

Ok here are some pics of where we are: Took this one for you Kim - This mornings sun on the pool - Here are two from the side and the the corner of the deep end: Back of the pool - will look much better with new sod and some landscaping: Equipment - Heater still needs to be installed...

I will upload some pics later but not much has changed picture wise...They came in late last week and did the first cleanup which can i just say that i so appreciated that this weekend. They came Saturday and installed our gutters on the back of the house...Guys came Sunday and installed the gas...

Deck is framed - concrete pour on Monday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It could be decking today...a truck just pulled up in front of our house and there is an entire crew making their way to my back yard - Fingers crossed - stay tuned! CONFIRMED - Decking starts today!!! OMG this is really happening fast - So Excited!

The first clean up crew showed up today - finally some of the trash has left my yard. The guy can by to measure for gutters on the back of the house - things are progressing quickly!!! It's getting exciting! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Your right on Kim - those two small pieces just look out of place. As for the columns they just don't seem straight and the corner doesn't seam up well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So there has been a lot going on in the past few days... Back wall is complete - However they have to redo the columns bc i am OCD and they were not done correctly: Coping is now completed and looks great except for a few pieces that really stand out - already talked to PB and he is going to...

The cost for us to move up was to much for Prism as well - if you choose the satin matrix it comes with abalone shells - maybe see what the cost would be to just add more if you want more bling Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok Kim - i am going to check on them now...Not sure that i know how they are supposed to look - Hope the Kolaches and promise of an adult beverage once they are done will persuade them to do a good job! I will also look into the Dry Acid and let you know what i find.

Pics of Tile going in... Travertine Coping 16x16 Split face travertine for back wall: Cant wait to see this go up - Tile going up around stairs: Close up of tile: - - - Updated - - - Going to put a few of these in the outdoor kitchen and i think a few new ones for the house as well -

So Kim if I get the same one as you - the taller one (right)? Can I put the chlorine and MA both in there just not on the same shelf or not at all? Just want to make sure I understand. Good call on the wet pool toys in a deck box - I will clarify with him. I would assume we wouldn't put them...

WOW - 4-5 days....I don't know friend...We also had a 4 1/2 feet passage between the houses - they used the smallest little machine and 2 guys with motorized wheelbarrows (They were cool). Our dig only took 2 days - fingers crossed it moves fast! Exciting days ahead...

They told me they are weep holes - Dont be alarmed when they fill up with yellow stuff (Ha - i thought it was pee - I mean where do all these guys go to the bathroom) my PB laughed at me and said its normal... Your pool is looking great!

So on that note of storing the pool chems - Please advise how you guys do it...Especially if you live in HOT Houston! I know the garage is a no-no - And a special little tool shed in the backyard is a no go for me as we don't have room for it...so whats left - keep in mind i have a nosey little...

Agreed can't have enough place to store stuff!!! Still trying to come up with the best place to store pool chemicals - Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wish it could be a cabinet that could be opened pool side - cool idea Marla - maybe for our next pool! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

hi Marla - it's a brick column that's already there so we are going to incorporate it into the counter! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
