I noticed today that I had some holes in my grout around my pool. Pool is only 6 months old and wasn’t sure if this was common as grout dries out. Also, I noticed some pretty decent degradation of my grout where I’ve had calcium build up and had to remove it using muratic acid. Any thoughts...

I noticed two spots near each other on my splitface stone that appeared to have rust(not sure that’s what it was) leaching through and dripping down the tile. Dried water marks were there. You can see the discoloration on the stone and grout. This is after I scrubbed it as it was much more...

I'm finally getting my pool chemistry balanced out. I had a pool guy for a few months but I was doing more to balance the water than he was so I'm taking it on full time now that I have less travel in my schedule. My pool has been running since Mid February and CYA being super low has been a...

Getting ready to start the build process and we picked out our decking, splitface stone, and waterline tile yesterday. We went with a lighter travertine decking and split face then actually ended up picking a black glass tile for the waterline. Just curious if anyone has used black glass tile...

Well I've pulled the trigger on a pool builder in the SE Houston area with a tentative November start date. Looking for any and all advice I can get from the board on what I did wrong and what I did right. I have been looking on this website following pool builds and feedback from the board the...

Hey my wife and I are looking at getting our first pool installed at our house. We are limited by a UE and new codes for the city that restricts how close you can build to your foundation. It’s now 5’ to the outside of the structural steel which makes it 6’ essentially off the house. This limits...

Hello I'm starting to get pool designs and bid from PB in my area and was looking for any recommendations that folks on here had. I've done google and FB reviews on most builders in the area but any personal recommendations are appreciated. After doing research on here the past 4 week I'm...
