And the completed pool with deck. Now if I can get the yard back in order!

Back filled with dirt and I'm going to let it set for a couple months. I bought the jets separately and used a 3 way jandy valve for them and the returns. I ran a complete loop around the pool and put one in each corner that way they all have the same pressure. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yea seaman they are a lot louder than I thought they would be

Rented a bobcat and did the back fill. I'm planning on letting it settle for a few months then pouring the deck.

Will do racin thanks for the advice

JJ Im going to back fill next week when I have a few days off then Im going to let it settle for a month of so. Ill pour concrete with a broom finish. Kool deck may be down the road but we will see what the wifey wants to do.

No the fill pic was taken yesterday. I get a pic of the pump pad and then as I go ill add anything I do. I still need to plumb the deck jests before I can back fill. Thank you all for the positive comments

Pool is filled and plumbing is done. Working on getting the water right and back fill next week.

Liner install is a breeze. Took 6 of us 30 minutes.

Yes a regular shop vac. No steps and just used a water hose.

I liner was very easy. 6 people including myself of which it was one other man and 4 women. I would recommend not letting it sit in the molten Louisiana sun for to long before hanging it. I believe we all lost a layer of skin from grabbing the liner which was in the temperature of the sun...

Yes JJ we did it. Had 6 family members come over. It took about 30 minutes to hang it

About 2 hours Jay. Yes I just used a 80 lb bag of quickrete for the bottom drains

Jay I went with steel for the strength since I'm not using salt, the braces are A frames, I paid an extra $35 for a Tommy lift on the delivery truck. We just lowered each pallet down and rolled the up the drive way on a pallet jack.

Liner is in and we are filling with water

Yea royal has been good. I had one question so far and was able to speak to someone right away to get a answer. For my size pool I used 8 yrds and I used a Georgia buggy to haul and pour the concrete collar.

Jay royal has the options to upgrade or remove every part of the pool such as pump filter lights and so forth. I found every site is close on their prices.

I rented a laser transit for the dig but just used a 6 foot framing level to get the walls right.

My daughter told me "6 or 7, but there was only one in the pool working" JJ

JJ I pmed the pool krete guys phone number to you and told him you might be calling him.

I used Royal swimming pools for the kit. Pool krete is a brand name like everyone calls a weed trimmer a "weedeater" it is a combination of vermiculite, Portland cement, and sand.

No pics of the install since I had to work today. They arrived at 0930 and was done at 1600 (4pm). I do see some trowel marks but I'll see how it looks tomorrow after it sets. All in all looks good.

Jay, I am in the middle of my DIY now. So far all has gone very good and I'm very happy I took this route. All in I will be at $16,000-$17,000 for a 20'x40' pool with upgrades. The only things I subbed out is excavation ($1,000) and installing the pool krete ($1,350). I have a tread going...

Pool krete should be going in today if the weather holds out.

No JJ he going to come when the weather is right. I have two that I used racin but thank you for the offer

Just a little rain last night. It was a foot deep in the shallow endk

He is calling me tomorrow to set a date. Paradise pools in Watson ordered it for me, $14 a bag.
