Hi all - I am deep in construction and have noticed a bunch of chips and gouges and scrapes in the limestone around the pool. Before I make demands of the builder, I wanted to get some perspective from others.
Also, after telling me they were not going to damage my back yard (saying they would go through a different part of the yard), they wound up destroying 3/4 of what is left of my back yard. They put down sandy loam fill dirt and now i'll have a muddy mess when it rains until I pay a landscaping company hundreds of dollars to put down new sod to replace what their backhoe destroyed.
And, they filled in some stone between my existing deck and the pool, which is now sloped to the middle, where there is no drain. Probably 10' x 10' will sit with 1/2" of water every time it rains, unless they put in a drain.
I also have made a timelapse video of the construction so far, which is at Pool - Day 0-15.mov.
