    Sundek installed after plaster

    So we are ALMOST done with our pool. But they installed plaster last Saturday and today they are applying the sundek to the cement of our deck. Will this harm the plaster? It seems awfully messy and all of our scrubbing and religious testing seems for nothing. Is this the normal progression of...

    Waterfall/slide Blue Haven Pools Hayward Pump

    Does anyone have this pump for your waterfall/slide/water features? When I turn it on, it sucks the water out of the entire basket and doesn’t fill back up. All of the handles are turned to the “on” position. I’ve tried the recommendations from a few members here to no avail. It says it’s a self...

    Half of pool jets working

    Today the electricians hooked up our Hayward pump. Plaster was finished on Sunday, but the electricians couldn’t be here until today. Our PB dumped Muriatic acid in yesterday and said the plaster would be fine until the pump is turned on. Fast forward to today and the pump is working, but I only...

    Tile/Stone Crew Fired

    Moss rocks were delivered to our home yesterday. Today when the tile/stone crew arrive they tell me the cement guys messed up and made the outline too big. They will have to fill the waterfall/groto area with cement to make the steps for our slide coming off from the side of the grotto. I call...

    New Pool/Grotto/Slide- Started May 28th

    I’m so glad we found this forum! We began our pool building on May 28th. Gunite was done on June 21st (our PB was delayed a week on their Gunite crew). How long from Gunite to completion does it typically take (assuming no more week long delays)? Pics in the comments and link to 3D build below...
