Pool bid advice in So Cal

[Kniazi01]

Hello,

I am a new member and appreciate all of the information on this forum. I have received 5 proposals and I have narrowed it down to the attached proposal (snapshot of design also attached). I chose this one as the PB answered all of my newbie questions and has been really responsive and receptive to all of our input. He has a good reputation in the area based on reviews and has not only built several pools in my community but actually use to reside here and built a pool in his own home. I have a pretty large slope in my backyard which will require retaining wall. I would appreciate it any feedback and suggestions before I proceed. Thank you.

The pool looks great. It’s about the size of ours. I’m so glad we don’t live in CA though because it seems so expensive. But everything in CA is expensive.

Hello from over the hill in Culver City! It looks like a great design! Your quote is pretty in line with what we were getting, wished it was cheaper though. Unfortunately I can't offer any suggestions, first pool for us!

Hi!
I love that you have different levels on your deck, and the back wall is Wonderful!
Your plan mentions benches, where will they be at? Do you have an aerial view of the pool?
Getting the SWG (Salt Water Generator) is a sure suggestion you will get here! If you have any specific questions too, there are many many experts on here willing to help!

Thanks!! Here is an aerial view with where the bench would be. From what I read pentair is the way to go with equipment. The pool returns is 3 sufficient? We are leaning toward pebble tec but am open to suggestions? Lights how many are good for 30 x 15 free form pool. I have heard one but others have said 3? Suggestions for tiles are welcome as well.

You definitely need a bench in the deep end.
