SeanB.'s Pool Build

[Ready2swim]

Thanks for the update. I didn't want to be rude, but I was thinking to myself, 'That just looks like concrete with no texture.' I was thinking maybe the pictures were just really deceptive. It looks entirely different in the new pictures - very nice. Just curious, what would you estimate the square footage to be in the portion actually seen in the pictures?

BTW, they are installing our coping as I type. I should have some updated pictures in just a while.

Man they are really moving fast on your build...we were already two months into construction at the tile and coping phase!

I would estimate the square footage that you can see in the pictures to be around 1300 square feet if you use your imagination looking at the porch (I know it is a little hard to see because the katch a kid fence is in the way). I attached a picture of the covered porch area...

If I were to estimate the square footage around the pool I would say probably around 950 square feet. The total square footage of decking is 1450 which is a lot of decking. Our contract called for 3' of decking around the perimeter of the pool and we added at least 1' of decking around the entire perimeter and then got a little carried away in some spots. We thought 3' just wasnt enough when we actually saw it on the ground. If you are looking at the second picture (IMG 1931) the area in front of the pool closest to the house is 4' away from the pool.

We are adding salt tonight and starting the SWCG, I will also program the Easy Touch System and I will finally have my remote tonight so I dont have to walk back in the mud to turn the pumps on.

Landscaping starts tomorrow and then we are DONE!
