Hello all,
I just got done with a terrible 3yr process of building my home in Chandler. to say the least i am fed up with subcontractors and managing the project myself. Yet here i am, considering now doing the backyard/pool myself. My initial plan was to hire one of the local pool builders for the pool, hardscape, landscape, fire/water features etc. but the price tag for my initial conceptual drawings was a little shocking.
Really hoping someone on here can give me some pointers and referrals from subs/designers/contractors they have used and were pleased with. I have been reading some forums and it seems that many have used a pool consultant to help with the drawings, permit submissions, and sub-contractor recommendations. I think that may be the route i want to go, if i can save 30% or so vs. using a big pool company.
I'd like to get any names of consultants who you think would be a great fit for me, appreciate it.

Since you already have a construction thread (below), we'll keep this thread light just to say hello.
