Finally Finished (on Friday)




In a few weeks they screen it in so I can finish the landscaping.

Yeah, they look okay....but some embedded Porsche emblems or a clutch disks would look so much better!

Actually, the pool looks great!

AF, when you say you're going to screen it in, are you talking about a full cover structure, with screens? I'd love to do that with my pool. I'd certainly get a lot more usage out of it through the entire year!

You failed us.

Guess you could always drain it if you had to.

Probably more for them bugs.

BTW, nice pool. I wish I could get some of the rates you guys get for a replaster/rebuild down south. We get raped up here.

Sceened pool is a must for Florida. It keeps the bugs out and there are lots of them here.

I have solar panels and a solar blanket for my pool. I can swim year round in 90°+ water. The best part is I heat the pool for free.

With the cool nights this time of year I keep my pool at 90° its perfect for skinny dipping with the wife late at night after the kids are asleep.

I was just up in the Viera neighborhood. I was staying in Palm Bay and attending a MINI car show at Ron Jons on Saturday.

Nice pool enjoy it!!

Yes, the whole deck is getting screened in. It is mainly to keep the critters out. The house is on water, so snakes, frogs and the occaisional alligator are always a problem.

Kach22i - Nice Idea, but the wife would have vetoes that in a heartbeat. Besides, I already have something similar.....



I actually tried to get the tile people to do a crest, once again, vetoed...
