If you check my build thread you can see some of ours that was just filled this week.
Found it. Thank you very much for sharing. Beautiful pool.
Actually, our liner has been installed. Just haven't had a chance to update progress. We LOVE the liner and the shades of color we get at different times of the day.
Since my last update, liner has been installed and PB has prepped to have footer poured for our paver coping. Inspector coming today to check bonding before we can proceed. Hoping that goes well.
This is after lots of work was done around perimeter of pool. Pool has a lot of dirt in it and needs to be vacuumed and brushed. Hard to keep up with it. It is a constant battle since it is surrounded by dirt right now and winds blow the dirt in constantly. So the color is not as sharp as it has been.
Its gorgeous! Thank you for sharing.
I am struggling to make my mind between the grey mosaic and reef. ????
Thank you! We struggled with the same decision as well. I am sure you will be happy either way as they both create great shades of water colors. In the end, we preferred something a bit darker. That is why we went with the Grey Mosaic.

Had some progress over the last two weeks. Had our paver coping installed and the concrete deck was poured yestered. Things are coming together. Now on to final grading and fence.
Have a question I am hoping someone can help me with. The pool builder added foam between the paver coping and concrete deck. I asked when it would be caulked. He said they would come back at opening to clean that joint and caulk. My concern is isn't the caulk there to prevent water from getting into this area that could potentially cause freeze damage? Or is it better to wait because it is too cold to caulk?
It is and it should be sealed. The self leveling sealer needs warmth to lay well. Any sunny 60 degree day left will do fine. If you have a winter cover it will prob be ok for the winter if not I'd seal it
Thanks Jimmy, we are getting a mesh safety cover installed. I am still hoping to talk them into sealing it before then.
Pool build portion is finally finished. Deck poured, fence installed and closed yesterday. Now we have lots of landscaping to work on and the family cannot wait until spring. By the time it was filled we only were able to get in a few times. Glad we built in the fall though so everything is done as soon as the weather breaks.

You are very close to me! I'm in Harrisburg. We haven't taken the plunge yet, but have it narrowed to 2 builders if we do decide. Do you mind sharing who is your PB and are you happy with them?
