HI there. I have been lurking for sometime and even have began a thread a few times but never finished. We began our pool journey over 5 years ago but due to funds and just not finding a pool contractor we liked, it was delayed. After meeting over 12 contractors we finally found one and signed a contract in December. We are about 1/2 way. We are new to pool building and pool owning so please offer any comments.
