    Opinions on tile/plaster/coping selection?

    Sorry for the late updates. It has been a busy summer. Starting to get some plants in and some temporary shade (permanent shade is in next year's budget). 20150802_161306 20150802_161342 Night shot from last night 20150801_225928

    Thanks! The tile is from Noble Tile, Corsica Blue, NVIS 636. We are also very happy with how cool the stone stays. That red brick we had would get extremely hot, I would have to soak it down with water to make it so you could touch it.

    We left on end open. Still thinking of fully enclosing it. We are designing that part of the yard next so that will determine what we do with the open side.

    That is still the old plaster that needs to come out. I did put some bleach in after this picture to try and keep it from become a giant mosquito nest.

    Newbie here - considering new pool build in North Texas

    We are in Plano and love our pool. My kids are in between yours, 9 and 5. We spend most of our weekends out there May - Aug, sometimes into September. I feel you with the new pool $$, it is a large purchase that won't directly add to the value of the home. We purchased our house with a...
