Planning, designing new pool.

[baseballmom22]

We're in the process of building. Ours is free form, will have the diving board and is 39 x 18. We had an above ground as a test while the kids were smaller. We decided we loved the pool so much that we wanted bigger since the kids are now older and becoming teens. They've actually gone to the city pool for the diving, so our small one wasn't being used. I didn't realized until they dug how big 39 x 18 was, but we're really glad that it is that big. The kids have already decided who is coming to the first pool party.

I would definately plan on having monies set aside. While everything was going ahead of schedule, we hit a snag because my city requires a ptrap on all pools no matter what. After installing the ptrap, the city didn't pass inspection because we needed a dual cleanout, so plumbers had to come back out and put in a two way cleanout. We finally passed the plumbing inspection, and we're back on track. We should be getting the gunite tomorrow. If we hadn't have hit that snag we'd be ahead of schedule.
