    Ladder/Basketball goal mounting hole plugs.

    I went to Lowes and rummaged through the speciality drawers in the hardware aisle and found some black plastic plugs/grommets that fit. I painted them to match the decking color and pushed them down flush with the deck. They look good and didn't cost a bunch.

    2016 bleach prices

    I am frustrated with the price of bleach in DFW. Best I can get is .30 an ounce for reliable date, good storage practices and strength. FYI, I am using the chlorine price per ounce calculator to get the price per ounce. I am in Keller and have searched all local stores and the "deal" was the...

    New Pool Rockwall TX

    I would suggest Clarity Pools. I am in Keller and he came to me from Krugerville, TX. Thinking the distance to Rockwall might be the same? I am going to be posting my build shortly. Clarity wasn't the cheapest but was the most honest and straight forward. I interviewed five PB's and found it...
