As I have said previously, recall that you posted abut your pond builder on a number of threads, most dead over six months. In those threads, I had asked you to stop. You didn't. That was spamming and what I found objectionable. There is nothing hateful or venomous in my last post. A swimming pond by that's site's description is not a sanitary place t swim. I was and still am quite sincere when I say I hope no one gets sick. If you've ever had a crypto infection, you would understand. That and other bugs in the water can and do kill people. This is a pool forum. Your pond is not a pool. There is a pond forum as has been pointed out. You are not stupid and I am not the Internet Police. I am not a jerk either. I am as straight a shooter as I can be. I try to help others. I expect nothing in return. That's how my parents raised me to be. If, by calling a strike a strike as a part one's life style philosophies, someone's toes get stepped on, I usually chalk it up to two things, you can't please everyone and not everyone can be pleased. I can look at myself in the mirror and know Mom would be proud. If I can't do that, then I need to and do make amends as soon as possible. I don't let things fester knowingly. Scott

Custom Pool and Spa Concepts built our new pool and spa, which was completed last November - we love our new pool, as do our kids and grandkids. They demo'd the old fiberglass pool, which we included in the cost for the new pool - you can't repair fiberglass anymore after a certain number of years and it was in terrible shape. Service after the install has also been great - although we haven't had too many issues! We photographed our demo and the new pool build - we need to document it, now that we've got our landscaping, mostly done....

I used Platinum Pools (located on west side - Beltway 8 and 59.) Happy with the price, process, and result. I would definitely recommend you search builders that actually have a store location that you can visit. (not just someone that comes to your home and is able to create a website/post pictures on the internet.)

I've heard Laguna and Sunset are expensive but good builders. I also would stay away from Platinum Pools, they came out but never gave us a quote either. We used Cy Fair Pools to build our outdoor kitchen, covered patio, pool with a hot tub. I had not one complaint with Cy Fair Pools. It is owner operated and Scott, the owner was out in our backyard for the entire dig and gunite. Didnt just show up to collect a check, he stood there and watched the whole process. Was impressed. His number is 832-483-2279.
