-put socks or a cloth over the ends of the hoses. This will protect the new plaster from being scratched/marred and help filter the water some.
-Put the hoses RIGHT on the main drain so there is not "river" of water running down your new plaster. If not main drain put it at the lowest spot in your pool.
-fill the spa last as you do not want to take a chance of it running over yet.
-Do NOT stop the fill water for any reason!!!!!!! Once you start filling keep it going! If you need to slow it down that is okay but not by too much. We had one pool where they stopped the water for the night and it caused a dark ring around their new plaster
On the deck, we went with stamped concrete with a slate pattern. We had an exisiting patio they couldn't match. So between the old and new there is an expansion joint of flagstone between the two.
I love how you did the border between the two places! We just did the same thing in our hallway. If you can't match it then do it up big and pretty. Well done!
So pool us filled and start up happened today. Landscaping should be tomorrow.
However with two steps forward, there always seems to be one step back.
So when the deck was poured, the jig for the diving board didn't make it. Also, somehow, they poured over the autofill valve. So guess how gets his new concrete cut up already!!? Ugggg
WHAT???? How, just how..............do they pour OVER something like that?? The board jig I can almost understand but........pouring over the valve?? Gurrrr
