Geralde Pool build

[geralde]

Good morning all. Since I started my pool building process, this forum has been extremly helpful. I love seeing the progress pics. So I thought I would give back a bit and show you mine :-)

Pool is moving right along, they dug on 9/21. Rebar on 9/22....gunite on 9/26. Tile and coping today..

Nice layout. Looks like things are moving right along for you as well. Not much yard left to mow, huh??? What are the specs on your pool? Keep the pics coming.

Nice. What is the are on the lower left in the last picture going to be? Is that a beach entry? I see steps on the opposite side.

it is a Play pool. It is 18inches deep...about 100 Sq Ft. We think that is where I will be spending alot of time with a cooler :-)

The pool is a A&S 700SqFt Mountain Lake. Approx 22x42. That is not including the playpool.

Looks like I will be getting Tile and Coping tomorrow. Decking later this week.

Here is a better pic of the play pool.

Great idea. My four year old would love an area like that.

Geralde, Great idea. We did a little version of what you have (4ft x 9ft). We refer to it as our tanning ledge. Are you putting any circulation in the area? I did not see any stub-outs. We installed a "bubbler" fountain to help keep the debris off of the landing. I also installed an umbrella holder as well. Here is the shot of ours.

Geralde,

I saw your post on Sean B.'s thread. I wanted to put my two cents in on the exposed aggregate. Pea Gravel is great as long as the builder installs the correct grade of gravel. I am attaching a picture (not the best quality) of my folks pool in Seabrook, TX. They have pea gravel with the flagstone inlay. Hope this gives you some ideas.
