Well they got the stone work redone and finished today. Looks much better in my opinion. My blood pressure is back to normal.
Our second build in East Texas
- Thread starter tcm
- Start date
It's dark outside now but below is the view from the breakfast area in the house. I think its going to be nice once landscaping is done.

Thanks, and yes I have been pretty impressed at the speed the have been going scheduled to start decking Wednesday. Hopefully the rain will pass us up this week.
It will be a nice spot to have coffee on a cold morning and still see the pool! Warm mornings I'll be at or in the pool! 
Have been off line for the last two weeks, but we have made some more progress and are almost there.
Got the stone put on the steps and the waterfall tweaked. Hopefully landscaper can get sod laid out next week so the dog will quit tracking dirt everywhere.

Wow, I really like it, and that seemed really fast. Did you go from dig to fill in less than a month? That would be fantastic for me. Excavation today, and my mother's birthday is June 20th, so the dream is to have it ready by then.
Very pretty! With the trees, landscaping and stone kind of looks like a mountain retreat!
So jealous of how quickly things move down there in Texas! Our build is creeping along.
What plaster finish did you use? The water color came out really nice...it looks great!

Thanks for the comments. It was amazing how fast everything went. It was a little over four weeks start to finish. That includes losing 3 or 4 days for bad weather.
The plaster is pebble tec sandy beach. We love the water color and it is getting better day by day. Now if I can just get my yard back I will be happy.
