Hi all I am very new to the TFP space but have friends that have been raving about it so here I am. My wife and I have been meeting with pool builders in the North Texas (frisco) area recently and are getting close to building a pool. I will post a full build thread soon once we get started but we are considering a number of builders in the area. I wanted to share a couple of designs with you experts and get some thoughts. FYI we are on a greenbelt which is rare in our area with a raised retaining wall behind our yard. We have had all kinds of suggestions in our area from piers to injections to nothing because of our soil with all differing opinions.
I wont get into too much detail but here are a couple of the designs, Some pool builders say we can be as close to the house as 5ft some say better to stay farther(waterline). Most concerning to us is most amount of pool in the safest distance from issue aka retaining wall and house.
Two different designs we like so far, but we have issues with both.
For one thing PB1 does not warranty their plumbing for nearly as long...but they do not heat bend pvc.
PB2 does heat bend but they warranty longer...
PB2 has a bigger pool build but the materials are lesser.....ie Belgard vs travertine.
PB1 Pool is smaller but has nicer finishes...ie Travertine coping, decking, more lights etc...but less deck.
Anyway just wanted to intro myself as I am sure I will become a fairly active user on the site and look forward to the opinions/suggestions here.
Thanks so much
