Your photos answer a question I’ve had. With how our yard, gate and pool are positioned I’ve figured they’d have to have a ramp in the deep end but didn’t know if that would be ok. Guess it is

We're doing owner builderThe PB puts the pad in. Some will put pour a concrete pad, if so make sure they don't pour around the pipes. Some will use premade resin/plastic pads. On my moms pool they just put it on the dirt, I made them at least take it out and put down a layer of gravel for drainage and support.
I've seen some get poured with gunite and some when they do the decking.We're doing owner builder.
Ah.. then you put the pad in... Ya know, I can't remember which contractor did the pad on the last pool I was a part of the build process.We're doing owner builder.
