THE MAKING OF A SWIMMING POOL AND SPA
Demo of the block wall took 10 minutes |
Breaking ground |
Starting the form of the pool |
The pool takes shape |
Trenching around the house for gas and electrical lines |
The plumbing goes in |
Next is rebar |
Shotcrete finally for the pool shell |
The jacuzzi takes shape |
Now we need to water the shotcrete three times a day to cure |
Forming the concrete deck |
We have a deck |
And the wall is put back together again.... |
Tile and stone are done |
Love the stone wall on the jacuzzi; the water will flow over and down into the pool |
Time to clean the shotcrete for plaster |
Plastering is the last step |
And finally...water |
And more water |
And more water--24 hours of filling the pool and spa |
The end result, what a transformation of our backyard! |
