    At our wits end with this pool. Need advice please - severe leak issues

    I mean based on all the leak detection we’ve done I really don’t think we have any leaks. Is it possible that there’s just water trapped since it’s under concrete and it’s just slowly trickling out? I’ll check with my neighbors and I’ll call the water company. Would my water bill be higher if...

    Thank you - the leak detection company that came out to test our irrigation last week did this with our water meter and confirmed no leaks. I can definitely ask my neighbors to check again. I don't think we have any gophers thankfully but we do get bunnies from time to time.

    At our wits end with this pool. Need advice please - severe leak issues

    We repiped our whole house in 2019 so there's definitely not a leak in any of our home pipes. Just last week we had all our irrigation lines checked and confirmed there were no leaks. I wouldn't even know where to begin with getting the main water line checked. Would that cause an increase in...

    Thank you - this is helpful. So the light niche has been sealed and there is still seepage as you can see from this photo. Should we still proceed?

    Hi all, would really appreciate some fresh eyes/thoughts on our situation with this pool that we inherited when we purchased our home in March 2019. As first time pool owners we were super excited about our pool, especially since we have young kids. Within a month of moving in we realized we...

    Help/suggestions on how to get rid of extra pool tile

    Hi all! I purchased some beautiful waterline tile from Aqua Blu Mosaics. I think I somehow got the measurements of my pool wrong because I have over 5 boxes of unused tile now that it's been installed. Unfortunately the cost to ship the tiles back to Florida via freight (I'm in California) is...

    New to TFP, undergoing pool renovation in So Cal - need help with tile

    Yes it’s pool-rated :) On a side note it’s very sad that so many beautiful tiles are NOT pool-rated.

    Here’s another tile I was thinking about. I love that it’s a different shape (picket style) and I love the marble veining. What if I install something like this for the entire thing? Waterline plus above the waterline?

    Thanks. Do people not pick glass tiles at all anymore? Definitely something to consider.

    Here is a picture of the current state. We’ve already had the coping redone and the stones and tiles remove. As you can see we are adding a deck behind the spa area. I’ve also included a picture of the glass tile I really like. Struggling with waterline tile.

    Hi all! We are undergoing a backyard renovation that includes redoing the pool coping and tiles. I wanted to see if I can get some advice on tile. We are not redoing the existing pebble. I’m trying to make the pool as modern as possible. The lady I met with at NPT suggested that I pick a vibrant...
