    Equipment Covered and Chaises Stored

    Early last summer we started building a long fence close to the side of our house where the pool equipment caught way too much heat and sun. The goal was to shade the equipment and store chaise lounge chairs off season. You can see the Chaise Loungers have gray covers and hang from something...

    Pool Fence with 30" pole spacing

    Hi guys, my dog ate through a section of my pool fence. I'm attempting to replace that particular section without replacing the whole fence. I can't find anyone that sells fence sections with 30" spacing between the poles. I'd even be willing to attach the poles myself if I could just...

    Pool fence- horizontal slats allowed if tightly spaced

    We like modern design and want a horizontal slat fence. We can space slats 1/2” apart and we are alternating 3” wide boards with 6” wide. It’s vinyl so they are centered on the posts not placed one one side. When I read the code it says when the horizontals are closer than 48” apart they must be...

    Pool safety (fencing and pool covers)

    I'm new here and need a bit of help with securing my pool. I have a porch that leads directly to my pool (3ft clearance). What are the requirements for pool gates?

    Pool Fence and Deck Slope

    A real newbie here. Fought the wife for years concerning a pool, then along came grandchildren, and I lost the battle. Just installing a 18’ x 36’ in ground pool. The contractor said they plan to pitch the concrete deck slope at 1/4” per foot. That is great for rain runoff, but now I have...

I'll be working with the current owner to learn more, but had a few questions I wanted to bounce...
