Last few pics. We finished up the pool pump room. The pool supplier will have a guy come next week to add the other pump and set up the suction line so I can use the pool fountains properly.
We used left over materials. We went a little over the top as we tried to align the wood height with the privacy fence. I will add some shelves inside to hold my pool chems and pool tools. Just need to paint it after the cement dries.
.
Full size door. I will finish the cement after the other pump and plumbing is done.
Last few bits of the project are pool furniture and we will pick those up over the coming weeks.
Time to enjoy the pool now
Happy Holidays
Thought I'd add a few final pics
Planted the Foxtail palms and moved the potted plants to the Sala area\
Moved the potted plants to the pool bar area and added the pool chaise lounge chairs with umbrella
My view chillin in the sala with a beer in hand....
Solar light and fan installed on Sala.
There ya go..my Cigar dealio...A Cubano from a long time colleague from Florida....
You damn well deserve that Cubana, and break out a long shot of a great whiskey, bourbon, or maybe a super Tequila.
Mate ... awesome build and well documented.
Only one question.
The water aerators are in chrome.
Given your excellent colour scheme, would a 'copper' look/material not an option?
With a nice empty wall behind the pool bar I took to finding material to make some shelves. I have saved some unique bottles and thought this is the perfect place to put them out. This was a much bigger project then it looks. Firstly the wood is Thai Redwood and was very heavy. But I wanted something thick that would stain nice and not warp. I looked at the light wood but everywhere I went it was already cracking and loaded with knots that will ended up likely being holes later. Being the wood was so heavy I had to drill all the way through the wall and anchor on the backside and had to locate "L" brackets made of SST that preferably had gusset supports. I found the "L" brackets but the hole size was too small for the longer bolts so I had to bore out all the wall mount holes which was a pain in the ass as SST is hard stuff.
Wood I located. Thai Redwood as its called. Very heavy stuff. Not ideal for shelving if I should ever do again
locatiing where to mount the SST L brackets
Redwood stained and installing the brackets
Shelves installed
Happy New Year all.
Another good job done. Happy new year to you too, JPPR2.
^^ The finishing touches have transformed the area, it looks just great!
But mate, are you sure that top shelf is straight...
Happy New Year!
Great thread and great result. Well done and happy new year JPPR2.
Looking Classy JP.
Happy New Year Bud.
I'm looking to do something similar, but only 3x8m
Would 500k cover it all, including decking but no bar?
Your really tempting your neighbors with that bottle collection.
CD,
Hard to say quite honestly. That seems like a fair number for guesstimating.
Lots of unknowns such as;
- Will you do some of the work or contract it all out?
- The size of the deck will impact the cost, both materials and labor.
- Will the pool be Fiberglass or tile?
Happy New Year
Happy New Year Cal,
Of all those bottles only 4 or 5 have some booze in them, the rest are empties primarily for show. Now my fridge has a nice selection of beer in it though and a host of various mixers. I do have a camera looking across the pool towards the bar but not to watch the pool bar but for safety so we can monitor it. My FIL is not allowed to go in the pool when we are not home. He can't swim.
Nice one JPPR2. I salute your design and efforts. I hope you and yours enjoy many a new year and as allways keep on swimming. ...
The fish.
