He has been great to work with so far and I will pass the recommendation onto him. I am really jealous that you are swimming already.
I will post pictures once we get rolling.

Sorry had to take a few pics of the renderings instead of getting the files from PB but it gives a general idea. We are next on the list to dig so crossing our fingers it is this week.

Re: Starting the process in North Phoenix
That is a lot of pavers, what type are you going with? Beautiful layout. I see your pool gets pretty close to your property line, do you know how close you can be and where you end up?

Re: Starting the process in North Phoenix
It's a little over 1100 sqft of travertine pavers. Haven't picked out any colors yet. According to Maricopa regs. we have to be 3' from the lot line.

Beautiful! Looks similar to ours, but I like your higher back wall and planters. Nice touch! We love our travertine, it turned out so pretty. Everyone who sees it comments on it.

Here are more pictures of the yard.
Starting the dig.
Determining if it is a hard dig.
And it is a hard which is $$$ and said it will take two weeks to dig.

Re: Starting the process in North Phoenix
Wow! Hard dig and looks like they weren't a foot down before they broke out the hammer. Bummer. Hope you had a contingency for that. We did since we put in a diving pool and due to our location, but luckily we didn't. We put in RV gate so they could bring in a full size excavator which is what saved us. Hopefully it's just a caliche layer, keep fingers crossed.

Re: Starting the process in North Phoenix
What's hard about it? Did they hit rock or just hard caliche soil? I know that some parts of Scottsdale and Paradise Valley could be rock (close to the mountains) but I didn't know that you would run into hard digs in other areas of the valley.
Our dirt was soft and pure. They commented on how they wish they knew someone that needed dirt because of how clean it was.
Hoping the rest of the dig goes well for you!

Looks like good old caliche rock. Sample of the rock from the dig.

Who are the companies that did your electrical and plumbing? Did the charge by sq ft or for material used?
