Got it. For some reason I pictured a reserve tank that kept the pool topped off due to evaporation.

hoping to get the landscaping pretty much buttoned up this weekend…as much of a pain in the ass that it will to put plants in later, that’s the plan.

de-stoned, graded and waiting for sod

also decided to extend the end of the patio to give a little more walking room around the shallow end

A bunch of those pools have been installed in my neighborhood in the past few years. How deep is it?

5’-4" in the center sloping up to 3’-9" on the ends and the one round end with bubblers is only maybe 8"-10" deep

about 1500sf and took about 5 hours…pushing a wheelbarrow of sod through the big rocks is not so easy it turns out

just have to pick out some plants and complete the extension of the patio to wrap it up for the summer

i think it was $0.34 a square foot… seemed steeper than i wanted but there are only 2 places near me and they had nearly identical pricing.
