    New Pool in Louisiana

    The pool came out great, it was set to be higher than the patio. The pavers are coming along slow. I have had nothing but rain since July so that has caused delays. I am a DIY paver installer..... What I have got done came out nice, just have to install in between the rain and my work schedule...

    New Pool in Louisiana

    Our pool in the yard and ready to go, except the rain came down hard and we had to wait a few days to start the dig. I had a lot of neighbors looking at my new lawn ornement though. We got to see how sturdy this pool was, the pool did not flex at all when it was lifted from the truck. The...

    New Pool in Louisiana

    I have not updated this post so thought I would give everyone a update on our pool selection. We did go with the Leisure Pool and PB that we had liked from the beginning. I understand Michael may have had a problem with his Royal pool but the crew did an excellent job with getting mine level...

    Paver deck base?

    The belgard dealer here told me to use 4 inch of crushed stone. I will be doing my pavers also, wondering if I need to slope away from the pool and use some type of french drain or not. I have 30 days to read up and learn more.

    New Pool in Louisiana

    I like the clean look of fiberglass. I had a friend that had a gunite and at night with lights on you could see all the imperfections on the sides. I read many people like how easy they are to take care of.

    New Pool in Louisiana

    Wow That IS the Leisure PB in Slidell I was talking with, the only dealer around for Leisure. Last week I looked at a pool they had just put in and it looked really great, the pool was the same model we were looking at getting. I am torn now because of the problems Michael had, the PB seems...

    New Pool in Louisiana

    Hello Michael, I am in Brier Lake, Lacombe, down the road from you. I was also looking at the Intelliflo but was curious if the low RPM would still be enough for the SWCG, I did not think about the 2-speed being too low. Thank you for the feedback. I will specify the 8" straight section of...
