I'm suppose to finalize my pool drawing this week and dig hopefully next week. I am putting in a mini cave grotto and want people to be able to jump from the top of it if they want. I'm sure lots of kids will and some adults (including myself). I'm going to tell people no diving, but want to...

The original plan was for a diving board but i told my builder my wife and I would rather have a grotto with cave instead. I want our children, other kids and possibly adults to be able to jump off of it like this video link will show you. My question is, how deep should i have the deep end...

This is going to be a huge investment, but the more I thought on it, i feel like this is something my children will enjoy growing up, and hopefully we'll continue to enjoy it on into retirement age with my wife and future grandchildren. There are other options i have to add or replace certain...

Started talking with my local PB guy who everyone has recommended to me. He's given me a couple quotes on two different size pools... 20 x 40 and 18 x 36. He's saying i'll get about 700 sq ft of actual pool with the 20 x 40, and 550 sq ft. out of an 18 x 36 freeform. How do you figure square...

I'm currently in the process of getting quotes to build a pool in my backyard. I'm leaning towards an 18 x 40 freeform concrete pool. I have lots of trees in my backyard, plus wild animals and my big dogs that could potential get into the pool which is why i'm leaning towards concrete over...
