I'm Racer X and I hate my pool. It was included with the house we bought...we love the house, the property, everything...except the pool (and I'm pretty sure that the pool hates us as well). We live on 5 acres out in the country but we have a very geometrically shaped pool that doesn't even try to blend into the beautiful scenery that we live in. After 5 years, it was time to try and do something about the pool. So we contacted several pool companies that did pool remodeling. We know that we need new plaster and that the pool filter and pumps need updating, but mostly we want the pool to 'fit in' to the outdoors better. Maybe redo the concrete desk to soften the pool and spray extra coating in the corners of the pool to 'round' out the shape. We expected it not to be cheap...but every estimate was $50,000 or more. So, I'm here seeking advice as to how to get the pool and us to live together, in harmony.
This picture is from the day we moved in and began our struggle with the pool. Now, it looks like a pool should look like...blue water and all, but that shape...
