Re: Oklahoma City area PB recs and can this even be done? I replied to your PM miaOKc.

Re: Oklahoma City area PB recs and can this even be done? MiaOKC, I'm in the process of a build with Quiescent. PM me if you would like some feedback.

Flatlander, Nope - no rock encountered. Whew...although I wasn't really worried about it. Donny said he has only come across rock one time on a dig and I think that was in Edmond somewhere. They showed around 8:30am and worked pretty much non-stop until around 2:30pm. Pretty impressive for...

We have dirt! (and lots of it). No turning back now.

Mark, I started a new topic for the pool build. Posted some pics as they outlined and brought in the digging equipment this afternoon. Guess this is really happening!

The dig starts tomorrow! Heavy equipment and pool outline arrived today while at kids soccer game. Here are some before pics:

Hey Mark, Okie Dig was out last week, HOA gave approval last week, sprinkler and septic guy completed his capping on Tuesday. Donny got permits this week. Donny and team were out yesterday marking the pool area. Dig is supposed to start tomorrow! (Let's hope the rain holds off). As soon as...

I confirmed today - it definitely is the Polaris 9300 and PB said it would be cost neutral if we want to "upgrade" to it vs the Legend. Not sure exactly what to do yet, but I do like the idea of having the pool plumbed for the pressure side cleaner if we decide to do the 9300.

Ouch. Sounds like a bit of an unpleasant experience. Fingers crossed we have a little less damage!

Flatlander, Dig should start very soon. Donny was applying for permits early this week and getting Okie Dig out to mark gas/electric lines. The only possible delays to starting the dig are on our end. We have to get HOA approval (shouldn't be a problem) but more challenging is we have to get...

Much appreciated rjward. I do think it was robotic as he mentioned it would have to be plugged into the wall. I appreciate the insight as I'm definitely new to this and honestly it's a bit over my head right now!

Finally pulled the trigger and signed a contract today. Same specs as above except I did upgrade to the Intelliflo Variable Pum vs the Whisperflo 2HP Pump. I did post a question about the Kreepy Krauly Legend vs 9300 under the pool cleaning section of this board, as this is another option the...

OK. I just signed a contract today for a new build. A lot of information and now that the PB has left I'm a bit confused over an option he gave us. I upgraded to the Intelliflo Variable Pump from Whisperflo Pentair 2HP. Original cleaning equipment quoted was the Pentair Kreey Krauly Legend...

Blisstmr - How did it turn out? We are about to pull the trigger on the same builer and practically the same pool. Any pics or feedback you can share?

Very nice! Your plan is extremly similar to our quote. We actually went and visited a few of QA's pools tonight and came away pretty impressed. A couple of the pool owners we spoke to liked the AmeriDeck because of course it kept the decking area cooler. Just as important - they mentioned a...

Forgot to answer your question. No we haven't picked plaster or tile yet. Not sure how much say I will have in that area vs the wife!

Glad to hear it! I would be very interested in your pics and following your build experience with them. We are still deciding between a few PB's but they are currently at or near the top if we can get a few details worked out in comparing their quote vs some others. The firepit was a "throw...

Blisstmr - It is Quiescent Aquatics. Who is your PB?

Thank you both. Hadn't even considered a sand or DE filter. We live in the windy state of Oklahoma with no trees around. The main threat we have is the wind blowing grass/dirt into the pool. Knowing this, would you have a different recommendation on the filter? It seems the DE may be best...

Completely new to the idea of owning a pool but about ready to take the plunge. Been working with different PB's on getting quotes and this is the one we are leaning towards. Hoping to make a decision by 10/31 and start the process. Can I please get some feedback/ideas of how the quote looks...
