Looks great so far! And the equipment you listed should serve you well!Thanks! As a newbie, I checked the forum a lot and looks like Pentair is a very reliable brand.
Finally today the pavers were done:
Next I believe will be finishing the tile on the waterline (They ran out of tiles...), mosaics and pebbles...

Thanks. Now that it has already rain, it is looking nicer. Once we pass inspections, I will have it sealed.

I'm also in the Tampa Bay area and in the process of getting quotes. Mind sending me a PM with who to avoid as well? I would appreciate it, thanks.
We designed a similar style pool here in Oldsmar. You won't regret the full width steps and sun shelf at one end. I might recommend sleeves for umbrellas in the sun shelf, but it might be too late. Looks great regardless.

Thanks. Do you have pictures? We found out that the sun shelf will only get sun up to lunch time, so we won't need an umbrella there.
Today they cleaned the concrete, tomorrow they might place the mosaics and either Thursday or Friday they will put the pebble finishing.
Very similar. Who was your builder? Mine (Anchor Pools) keeps postponing to put the pebble finishing and now I am waiting for next Wed (04/18) to have it done and fill the pool.
Did your pool get installed. I see you opted for the Pentair Quad DE filter. I have one but wondered if it is plumbed wrong because it has to be plumbed like a sand filter not a DE filter from what I have read. Do you have a pic of your DE filter plumbing I could see please? Thanks!

They are installing either tomorrow or friday. As soon as they do, I will post some pics. In the meantime, why don't post pics of yours, so that other members can try to help?
Today is one month that they installed the pavers, I paid a fat check ($10K) and no work has been done since then. Rarely a phone call to explain, unless I call repeatedly and get lame excuses that the "people that install the pebble finish" are not available....

Finally some good news. Last Monday April 29th they finished electrical and on Tuesday they applied the pebble finishing and installed the equipment. It took almost 36 hours to fill the pool and on Thursday they added muriatic acid.
They told me to brush it twice a a day for 10 days and will be back on this Monday to follow up.

At first, I thought you had some leaves or something in the pool and then I saw the starfish and turtles! 
They are so cute!
