Pool progress

We've been working on this pool for 2 solid months and still have so much more to do! We are going to keep the spa open year around and may heat the pool for  a little bit just so we can swim before it snows! Who knows... we may not be finished until spring! We poured concrete last week so that is one big step out of the way. Now we have back filling, tiling, plumbing, electrical work, the sealant coating, and more I'm not thinking of right now. That's not including the coping, deck, fence, and landscaping that are still left to do. This project has been way more time consuming and expensive than Josh or I either one realized.

Ready for concrete

We added the forms to the steps so they would be bull-nosed.

Pouring concrete

We had a crew here.. Josh is in red by the cement truck.

Nice and smooth

Playing on the dried concrete

We had to add a layer of plaster on top of the concrete to make it smooth since they had to dry stack the deep end to get the concrete to stick.

After our big rain storm. Hey.. at least it holds water. We still have to paint the sealant and EVM coating on top of this layer.
