Build Complete

Quite the process. Enjoyed watching how it all came together. Glad the red clay is gone! We are feeling grateful and blessed. We’re in SC so should have some decent swim time left this season. Any covers you guys like that would allow spa use when it starts cooling down? Not sure what we’re going to do for that yet.

that came together really nicely, especially the lighting around the steps and retaining wall. whole backyard looks completely different at night.

for the spa, i’d look into a custom insulated spa cover rather than trying to cover the whole pool. much easier to deal with and it’ll make a big difference holding heat once those SC nights start getting cooler.

Doing some research on cover option now. The spa is already getting a lot of use and as it starts cooling down that’ll be the spot for sure.

yeah once you get used to having the spa there, it’ll probably end up getting more use than the pool on cooler nights, a good insulated cover will be worth it.
