for the same price, Diamond brite is a much better finish. It comes with a factory warranty, is super consistent, and the quartz will give some great color. We like super blue for a traditional blue pool or french gray for something a little darker blue Here is a link that might be useful: www.monogramcustompools.com

If any of you have an in floor cleaning system installed in your pool, have your cleaning heads lightened in color? Ours were originally a dark gray and now are a light gray. We plan to re-plaster in the original dark charcoal/onyx color and wonder how it will look or if we should not worry about the heads standing out? (They are on the steps at both ends and in the floor of the pool) If you have ideas, opinions, or pictures--would appreciate.

I am always curious, why do some people have water brought in? We have somewhat harsh water there, but we dont truck it in. Where do you live that its that bad, and what is in your tap water you do not want? Just curious!

Ok. I am totally confused. Please straigten me out. We signed our paperwork several weeks ago and started looking at tile. Our builder offered Master Tile at that time and Diamond Brite for plaster choices. Today we went in to look again for some different tile selections to bring home and now they are offering Noble Tile instead of Master Tile. They said they could do either one for us, but they only have Noble Tile now on their wall for customers to choose. Is there a difference between tile companies as far as one better than the other, Master versus Noble? Also very confused on the plaster. We are written up in our contract for Diamond Brite, but now since they are using Noble Tile, the plaster choice is colors from the Noble Designer Series. The color choices are Biscayne Bay, Bora Bora, Caspian Sea, Diamond Reef, Emerald Bay, Marina Cay, Mediterranean, Regatte Blue and Seneca Falls. They said if we wanted Diamond Brite we could still do it, but the choices now for their customers is from the Noble Designer series. Is one better than the other as far as looks and durability? Please help me! I am so confused.
