New to Forums - Just signed to build a pool in The Woodlands, TX
- Thread starter icemantx
- Start date
I have read many - we are happy. Does anyone have thoughts on markers for the steps or sunshelf? Ideas?
That is going to be an awesome pool! Ya'll are going to love it. You came to the right place to get Solid recommendations. ENJOY!
Here are some ideas for step/shelf markers. The ski is the limit really. Here is a link when I did a search. I am going to pick a couple of comment on:
step markers pool - Ïîèñê â Google
Bling!!!! 6th from the top on the far left side-it is a solid line of shiny blue tiles.
Some Bling-top row, second one from the right-shiny blue tiles made into a diamond spaced evenly
No bling-using your water line tile have them cut them into 4ths and space them evenly along the steps and shelf. Turn them on their point to add some extra interest.
So what are you thoughts? Asks the BLING
I do think step/shelf makers are a very good idea.

Yep... read mine [emoji23] Had to wait 4 weeks for the concrete to cure and now pushed back a week and a half due to rain [emoji31] You’re flying!
PB said they plan to pour the decking Mom/Tues then lay the travertine late next week. After that we get to prep for the Pebble followed by the application of the Pebble a week later then done! Well, done with the build then comes landscaping...
I am glad to hear there is the time line between the shell and plaster. Well done!

I think lines of tile look nice, in fact, better than my 1+' spaced 3x3 tiles (cut from the 6x6 waterline tiles). Also our waterline tile blends too well with the plaster. They aren't the same but there's not enough contrast for my liking. I prefer contrast and a more continuous line look versus very occasional.
No matter what you do for the steps/shelf make sure they do NOT use grout. The plaster should be the "grout" so it blends better.

Just saw your build and looks great. Do you mind me asking who is your PB. I'm also in the woodlands and looking at getting quotes from different builders.
Looks like we may be on a delay. We decided to bump out the decking on either side and likely require re-approval from the HOA.
That’s ok though. I would rather delay the decking and get the size we want than just stay on schedule and regret a key aspect of the design.

Get it right the first time is the way to go! I wonder what would happen if you dropped the HOA paperwork with a plate of brownies????

LOL - hopefully the revision will get approved quickly. The PB is talking to the HOA.
PB is resubmitting today for the increase in decking by 192 SF. You can see the change in the outer lines of the decking in the drawing below. I am going to call the HOA to be extra nice to them 
Add even more decking....it’s less grass to mow!! [emoji23]
Looking great and enjoying your thread.

HOA approval for new decking - check!
Added cost of 180sf extra sucks but we will be happy to have the pool done right.
