We’re coping here
March 31, 2007 at 12:05 am | In Uncategorized | 3 CommentsPool progress comes in fits and starts and we’ve had a lot of activity recently. Yes, the rest of the tile has been installed along with the coping. Coping is what goes around the pool and decking is what is around the coping. The coping looks like this (and you can see the tile on the wall):
The decking will also be made of arizona flagstone like the coping, but it will be in large random shapes and it will extend out from the coping. The dirt is lower now to allow space for the concrete which goes under the flagstone decking.
Most of the extra dirt in the yard has been removed and the workers are starting to layout the footings for the decking, path and patio. So it is starting to look more like a yard again. The pool people are testing for leaks in the pipes that go to the pool so any can be fixed before the decking goes in. I’m still hopeful that the pool will be done by May 1, but hard to know. In the meantime, we are coping . . . . .

Wow, this is sure coming along! Nice pictures! I can now imagine exactly how it will be. When are you expecting it to be completed?

I’m still hoping for completion by May 1 but only time will tell.
