I think he could find a pretty "accent" tile if he needs to. Something with a critter on it like a turtle or such!

Tree cracked my pool - let's talk about rebuilding bond beam

Lol. Great suggestion. I hope it doesn't come to that - counting (and maybe installing) the tile tomorrow
A couple of the tiles cracked but luckily I found a spare box from the previous owner. Fingers crossed we will have enough.
BUT Drock! You NEED one pretty tile that has MY name on it! I have a bench, a lamp post, a light feature, etc that I helped with! LOL

Yeah - it's hard to watch that cement sit (and probably stain) that plaster but I have to let the coping dry before I can clean it out. I scooped out around 20 pounds of gunk after the deck and coping were demoed. It's amazing how much you can scoop with good leaf net technique.
Well we had enough tiles for everything except this one spot - anyone have ideas for a nice accent line ?
There's probably enough space to spell out "trouble free pool" with some letter tiles
No,no, no..............."Kim's Pool" LOL
Is there a "matching" area on the other side of what cut out? I cannot quite tell what that spot looks like.
I am thinking if that is steps or a beach entry area you could go for pretty, contrasting tiles to make it look like you meant to do it to "mark" that area. Here is my fav tile in the whole world!

Thanks for the suggestion Kim. We will prob replace the 6x6 tiles on that line with some accent tiles.
Now the tile guy doesn't have epoxy grout and he is using regular sanded grout tomorrow - we don't have time to find the epoxy - hopefully that will be ok....
Some Pool bonding highlights - the budget just blew up (again). That was one expensive copper wire to run.
17,000 pounds of pavers ready to go!
