I bought some foam tubing at lowes - I think it was some kind of pipe insulation, cut it to the size of the fridge door and wedged it in between the door and the stone. It does the job and is not as ugly as it sounds! Lol

It has a solid peaked roof.

Thanks - it's finally done because we were able to swim - but unfortunately, like several folks - we still have issues.

Thanks so much, I appreciate it. They came out and acid washed the front side of the stone and chiseled off the stucco on the back. They then put some kind of mastic looking stuff on all the still wet areas (sheer descents and sprinklers have been off for almost a month). There were way more...

We back washed the pool today just as a neighbor stopped by. Husband said he would add the DE while I talked to her, I forgot to tell him to remove the skimmer sock - what should I do now?

Looks good. I have the spot chosen but haven't done anything yet. We have direct TV but it's wired, son-in-law just got the wireless version and had his TV mounted and was watching football from his pool the first weekend they moved in. I have to call and see what they charge to switch it...

Keep on them - we are going on a year since they started on mine - still having issues...take lots of photos - send them to the PB everyday, don't let up until you are satisfied.

One other thing - your spillover is shaped like my scuppers were, the PB and mason showed me that the scuppers tended to let the water roll over the top but some water went under the edge and on to the wall, where the sheer descents shoot the water further out. See if you can get low enough to...

Sorry you are dealing with a leak too. Mr. PB and the mason continue to tell me that since the stones are porous water will flow through - have they suggested turning off your waterfall to let it dry out and see what happens? The stone scuppers we had caused much moe splash and water transfer...

It could be but this started right after the equipment was turned on in the Spring and has continued through the Dallas summer when the temps reached upper 90's. The pipes are more in the center of the stucco and the wet spots are varied in size and shape, within 12 - 24 inches from where the...

Just documenting the ongoing saga of the leaky wall...sheer descents have been off for two weeks now, no rain in the last week, no sprinklers or soaker hoses have been used - wall is still showing wet spots. Got a text last week from Mr. PB saying he had talked to the paint guy at Home Depot who...

I have to tell you we put in the solid shingled cover when we put in our pool. It was the best money we spent. It gives us shade and we can sit out here even if it raining. We installed to ceiling fans with lights, absolutely love it.

Gorgeous - I'm very close to you. Good choice on the plaster, mine is darker and a pita to deal with!

I don't have a photo of the inside - but I believe it was a T-fitting that's enclosed. The water is mainly behind each of the sheer descents or slightly to the side of each one. they tore into the wall and replaced the stone scuppers with the sheer descents in hopes that would fix the problem...

Flick - soaker hose has not been used in months. The wet spots were there before any landscaping went in.

Jay - they have ripped into the wall three times to check for leaks, pressure tested it twice and no water. I don't know what else to do to get this resolved. I'm kind of at their mercy since they have all the money. They have extended their usual warranty and are willing to try again to make...

Karen - I think your stone guy was at my house today telling me again (for the umpteenth time) that I don't have a leak when water is still coming through the back of the wall!

Construction foreman and Mason were out again today to look at the wall that's still leaking. They dug all the mulch out away from the backside edge and found no water there or near/in the valve boxes. They have no idea where the water is coming from. They have turned off the sheer descents...

Boy, that guy on the rebar is scaring the bejesus out of me!

My 6+ came today- love it! I can see the screen without looking over the bifocals! Lol. The fingerprint sensor is pretty cool option as wel as being able to choose the bigger icons. Sound quality on calls is excellent, photos are great. Now I just need to find a case I like for this bad boy...

- - - Updated - - - Im already over budget but that is one of the things I'd like to upgrade Ha! Weren't we all! Good luck with your build!

Finally got tired of being "attacked" by the pool cleaner and cleaning saltwater off the windows. I checked at the pool store then when I recovered from sticker shock, I ordered the tail sweep from Amazon for less than half the pool store price. First day review - no water spraying out of the...

Very pretty. If you can spring for it, I'd change to LED lights.

My 6 plus is on it's way from China - should be here next week. I got the bigger one cuz I'm old and can't see! If you can wait until then, I'll let you know how it is.

That is spectacular! Absolutely breathtaking.

Just a thought - could you add locking wheels to the bottom of your bar to make it easier to move?

I haven't been able to find the sabal palm here but will keep looking - I've only seen one canary date palm, it was huge and over $1000 so I had to pass that one up! Thanks for the heads up, I'll keep an eye out.

Oh Mia! I'm so sorry. We have had out issues, haven't we? Hopefully someone can give you some suggestions.

I'm just sick! Late last week I noticed the back wall is wet again. Earlier this spring and summer they tore into it three times, finally replacing the stone scuppers with sheer descents which seemed to have helped until last week. The stone on the pool side is not wet like it was with the...

I have a feeling it's going to be a bad winter here - squirrels are crazy eating these acorns - I have to clean this patio off 3 or 4 times a day. Squirrels are fat as hogs.
