Hi I'm new here
We're about 2 weeks into building our new pool and thanks to lurking on this forum my husband and I are much more knowledgeable about pool construction than most of our PB clients.
My question is, how tolerant of mistakes are you with your pool build? So far the only problems we've had have been with the plumber. Seems like just about everything he's done has been messed up in some way, from installing the water service on the wrong side of the house tied into the wrong water lines, to not installing the air pipes for the spa because the jets were back-ordered (we didn't find out this one until the gunite guys came by today and said they couldn't do the spa because it wasn't ready).
Our PB is on top of getting everything corrected and how it should be, but seems to think this is no big deal - "things happen" as he put it. We on the other hand are close to requesting his plumber never steps on our property again. Are we overreacting? We've agreed to meet in the middle and requested the PB be onsite supervising anytime the plumber is working.
And some pics: first one is digging the hole, second is after the steel and plumbing were installed
