COMPLETE - South Florida Pool & Outdoor Living
Hello TFP! You may have noticed me lurking around the last month or so. I figured I would officially introduce myself and tell you about our upcoming build. My name is Brian and we are building a geometric pool, spa, and outdoor living space at our home in Palm Beach County, Florida. While our contracts are signed, the final design details are still in limbo as evidenced by my other posts. I will be posting all updates on our future progress here. If I had to guess we are about 4-8 weeks from our dig date (waiting on permitting for home addition for covered patio).
UPDATE TO INCLUDE FINAL DESIGN AND SPECS - Sorry we dont have 3D renderings, just our plans
