Pool tiling

Posted on April 3, 2014February 18, 2017 by Ian C.

It’s been a week since our last pool update, but there was only one “dead” day – we had permits signed off on the plumbing & electrical conduit, and all the plumbing ditches were filled in.
But now today, there’s real work happening again with the installation of the tiles around the pool and hot tub. It’s more than one days work, but there’s progress already – including our first view of the waterfall design, which is even more impressive than imagined!

Here’s some views at the end of today’s work, including a view from above!

Many pool pipes

Today there was more excavation at the pool, for running many pipes between the pool and hot tub, and the heater / filter / pump setup that’s going in on the side of our home:

An impressive work day from Atlas Pools has filled the hole with what clearly looks like a pool and hot tub! A pump truck out on the road provided a flow of material, mixed with water as it exits the hose – and very skilled crew form this spray in to walls; it’s impressive seeing how close to a smooth angled wall they can make, just with the spray – but then it’s properly formed smooth with corners – and after a few hours, it’s finished!
