The inground structure includes the overflow tank, freshwater tank for all the household and garden needs, pool pump room, garden sprinkler pump room, and living area consisting of a rec room, wet bar/ kitchen and bathroom/ shower facilities.

  1. I am building a concrete pool. After I pour the walls and the floor what do you all recommend for the finial finish. I heard Marble dust and White portland Cement.

  2. Can anyone provide advice on a concrete wall that won’t dry please??? Needs to be dry to have fibreglass put on. Project is now 4 weeks overdue! Contractor keeps blaming the rain and that one wall doesn’t get sun. They’ve tried covering it up, and using a heater. But still not. Help please!?

  3. Concrete pools may be constructed using many differing methods. Concrete pools offer greater design flexibility than fiberglass pools. The ability to individually design a concrete pool means the consumer is not limited to pre-moulded designs.

  4. Solid pools might be built utilizing many varying techniques. Solid pools offer more prominent outline adaptability than fiberglass pools. The capacity to independently plan a solid pool implies the purchaser is not constrained to pre-shaped outlines.
