We haven't done that. But, now it is turning to a dingy color in places, some that are nowhere near the pool water. Plus the tile is made with the color layer on the back of the tile. It's not opaque. A pool company came to give us a quote and said its happening to a bunch of people around the...

Did anyone use Furlo Glass Mosaic glass tiles and they started fading and turning brown? We bought them from a large reputable tile company in Houston, TX and are hoping they will help. What a pain! The pool build was painful enough, after the first company left with half our $. I'm starting to...

I will let you know. Praying for a good outcome. And hoping other newbies will read our nightmare and be so diligent about who they hire! Funny thing, when I told them we couldn't believe they propped it up with a rock, she said "what should it be propped up with" I replied, "it shouldn't need...

I think so, is that an issue?

Hello, if you are happy with your builder, please send their info. We also have a lawyer we are going to call tomorrow. It really sucks

Below is the shortened version, but the important dates. It shows we were worried about getting the equipment and were willing to pay for it to make sure we got it in a timely manner. But now they can't get the equipment and expect us to pay more, even though the cost increase is not in the...

Will do, thanks

Thanks for your response. The PB quit last Thursday. They have been paid 75% with about 25% of the work completed. I'll start a new thread about it.

Hello, I wanted to start by thanking everyone on this site! The information has been invaluable. I only wish I had found it before we started this process. Backstory: the back of the pool had to be jackhammered out because the plumbing was low and then gunnited over. Then the tile guys came...

Thanks ahead of time! My husband and I were in the Harvey flood and have had bad contractors before and may have a bit of PTSD about all this. In our contract, it has $8 per sq. ft. allowance for the tile. Is it me, or does that seem low? The contract also includes flagstone for the coping...

Thank you. We signed the contract on April 23 and there isn't anything about inflation cost hikes.

We are in Katy Texas. We have been really patient with our new pool build. But our builder is saying he ordered the equipment in June and his Pentair rep said there is no Pentair equipment to buy anywhere. Plus there will be a price increase of 10-18% next month. And they will not honor the...

Thank you Thank you so much for the good info!! Should I ask for an additional warranty of some sort? It’s so hard to trust after having past issues with home contractors.

It rained and filled up right after that pic so we haven’t seen what’s in there. They are coming tomorrow to drain it so we will see. It looks like it.

After the gunite was cured the plumber came and noticed the jets were positioned too low. They removed a large amount of gunite and fixed the jets. I attached a pic of some of the conversation with the builder. Plus today he told my husband that the material that will fill the hole is stronger...
