Hi,

We are currently in the process of building a pool as owner builders - Basically we are the contractors. It has been pretty stressful but so far we are on track and relatively on budget. Shotcrete was pumped in 2 weeks ago now and our pool is looking like a pool!
We are looking for a good concrete and masonry and pool finish company at this point. We are all so excited to complete the pool and hope that the rest of the pool build works out well.
