New pool build - Murfreesboro TN

[joallen001]

Any updated pics?

We've made some good progress this week. The last two weeks were very slow as both PB and our family were on vacation one of those weeks and we had rain during the other week. The steps are poured along with the bench. About 60% of the concrete forms are done.

Tomorrow will bring workers to hand finish the pool bottom and more gravel.

We still have to make a decision on the liner. Lots of pressure on that decision.

Looking very good! You will have water soon! Are you still considering the black liner? On those steps did they just form them up and poor concrete? Then you just special order the liner to go over them? I was looking at 10' roman steps but the concrete steps would probably be a cheaper option.

Joallen, thanks! Yes, they formed and poured the steps. I wanted the custom look of the poured steps. I wanted to avoid the fiberglass steps. We have not decided on the liner but I think we've ruled out the black.

The build looks to be coming along nicely. We are planning to get ours started first of next year.

We made some good progress today. The concrete for the bottom of the pool was pumped in and smoothed. I think it turned out great. I had about 200 ft. Of gas line run for the heater, out door kitchen and the fire-pit. Tomorrow they lay the travertine coping. Hopefully the concrete deck next week!

Why does the 1 wall panel look different?

 

[Otis1971]

There's no difference other than the color. It. This was just what was in the kit.

Looks great! Love the steps. Looking forward to seeing liner pics and that kitchen!

Here's the latest. Travertine coping is complete. It will be much darker once it is sealed. We are still trying to decide on a liner. I'd love any feed back on the liners pictured above.

Are you going with pavers around the rest of the pool? Travertine coping looks really good.

 

[Otis1971]

No, we are going with concrete that has the color in it from the concrete plant.

Looks good! Closer and closer to water!

I like the liner second from the left best.
I don't think you'll regret all that concrete one bit... well, except maybe the bill :lol:
Looks great!

Thanks everyone. We are getting closer. We are excited to get this project completed. The concrete guys are done. Here are a few more pictures.

How much extra does it cost to color the concrete?

Is that water line by the diving board for a board with a waterfall at the end? Looked at those but didn't get one. They look cool.

And I love all the decking square footage!

Joellen, the color only added $40 per yard of concrete. I like it because it's done forever and the color won't scratch off if someone slides some patio furniture.
