My "New" Pool in SCHERTZ, TX

[TexasRain]

The accent tile looks gorgeous! Love how your buddy's tail is on the wall!

Thank you! I cant wait till they all leave for the day so I can really get out there and take more pics!!!
My PB liked how his tail was on the wall too, he said he never saw anyone do that before. ☺

He’s ready to STRIKE.............. a match for the Tiki torch so we can get THIS party STARTED!!!

*edit*. The woohoo party emoji isn’t working at the moment so imagine several of them here

So I have a bunch more photos to update y'all with! It looks so much cleaner out there! One little issue, they tried to put black grout in between the accent toe tiles! I texted the PB and told him I didn't want it to look like there is mold between my tiles! After about 3 minutes, I looked outside and saw them scraping the wet black grout out from between the tiles! Nice fast work PB!

Do have to ask what they were thinking to put black grout there??????? Good job PB for taking care of it that fast!

I had them use the black grout between the black waterline tiles, so maybe because it was here??? No clue

I bet you are right!

Looks great. They did an excellent job on the coping and tile, especially the pour-a-lid. Is the small lid for the autofill?

Our pour-a-lid didn’t fit the autofill. The deck crew tried to cut it down as much as they could but it’s raised about 1/4” above grade so we ended up with a little hump in the decking to make it flush.

Thank you!

Yes, the little donut lid is for the autofill. It took the guy a while to cut them, he took his time and did a great job!

How much space is between the tiles on the pool floor? Is that about 12"? The pool is looking great!

 

[TexasRain]

@TampaKathy I didn’t go and measure those yet... it got dark quick. And the deck guys were out there again early this morning! It was supposed to be around 18” between tiles.

Good thing you were watching and caught them in time!!!

 

[TexasRain]

They are pouring the deck and my new equipment pad today! Whoo Hoo!

Let the dirt END!!!! How happy day!!!

 

[spd500]

Very exciting! We were so happy to get some concrete to replace the mud our dogs were dragging into the house all the time!

 

[Sollace]

Yes, the dirt and mud tracked in by dogs is awful. I need to wash both dogs but what's the point?
My big girl came in yesterday with caked mud on her eyebrow. A pool build is definitely a process.
