    New build

    Your new pool plaster looks amazing! I'm having issues with mine as well - inconsistency in pebble color (lots of the black pebble in the shallow end and very little in the deep end) and so thin in some spots that it's chipping. Did you get your PB to cover the cost of the new plaster?

    Interesting idea! The mats wouldn't move at all?

    Just an update - We got slightly modified French Gray mini. Standard stonescapes formula is 11 bags white pebble and 1 bag black pebble. I did 10 white 2 black and 1 bag abalone per batch. Almost did 9 and 3. Glad I didn't. Stonescapes seems to currently have A LOT of beige in their white...

    DFW plaster and fill! Start up question

    Plaster and Fill up! We went with Stonescapes French Gray mini pebble with an extra bag of black aggregate and a bag of abalone shell per batch. So 10 bags white pebble and 2 bags black pebble. Kinda surprised how gray-beige it turned out. I think NPT's bags of white pebble must have mostly...

    DFW plaster and fill! Start up question

    It's been a minute y'all! Pool is still moving along at a decent pace. All that's left is plaster. We decided to do French Gray mini with swapping 1 bag of white pebble for black pebble and abalone shells. However, I'm concerned about a leak in the gunite. Could it just be the underground water...

    My experience with a DIY "bubble wrap" Solar Cover

    Ok, I really might have to try this...at least until the water can easily stay warm enough when summer temps come. We've had to put way more money into landscaping than I originally budgeted, still need to get all patio furniture/decor so I'm trying to keep the electric bill reasonable (using...

    Help deleting thread

    Hello mods! I'd like to delete my build thread titled "New Build - DFW." My posts keep getting merged to that build thread and I feel there are less responses when my question is buried in a long build thread. Thank you!

    NPT Stonescapes French Gray - Need a tad darker

    TmkemD - I saw Tropic Blue in person as well and I agree - it's too dark. Some pics online make it look a lot lighter. I'm leaning towards French Gray Touch of Glass or Salt & Pepper Touch of Glass. Waiting on PB to give me a quote on how much extra that'll cost. We already have overages so we...
