Thank you! And yes... I’ve thought if finishing it myself and while I’m somewhat handy... my boyfriend is a contractor - but it’s the fact that it will have a wall around it that holds the coping that seems to be the source of the expense.

He didn’t disappear... just not seeming to get any less expensive options unless I’m willing to have the outside of my pool look like a highway retaining wall/sound barrier (which is not really the look I was going for. Haha!) And the property line... well let’s just say outing this pool in was...

You summed it up perfectly lol! I’m considering just doing something like in the attached photo, along with some plants etc, around the rest of the pool where I don’t have the rocks already placed. My boyfriend just built himself a timber frame so I’ve got access to some free materials to do...

I think the problem there is that I’m not fully inground. I have to build a wall up. However, if I could build a wall up with concrete block and if someone could somehow pour concrete for the actual coping... maybe, but idk how they’d do that. But open to ideas if that’s a possibility!!

Do you mean just make it a more narrow coping so that I at least have some of the aesthetics? I hadn’t really thought of that. Could definitely be an option. I believe a good bit of the price is coming from the cost of building up a “wall” to support the paver coping on the top. Even with using...

I had planned to have 1-2’ exposed but we couldn’t dig as far as we planned bc of the huge rocks they were hitting. Attached is a picture of what I had hoped to do, and what I have now.....

Thank you Allen. I can't leave it as it is, because essentially there is no coping! (hence your question, what coping...) The way the pool is designed you have to select how you will finish it and then either a standard coping is installed (in which it would be finished, with everything...

Two years ago I installed a semi-in ground Radiant Freeform pool with the paver/cantilever coping. As a result of unfortunate expenses (like needing to put in a costly drywell... underneath where my driveway used to be) and the town having me move a brand new cedar fence....3 times. Ugh! My...
