My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

      Hey Kim,

      This is Bluestone around the pool with blue/gray slate as the vertcal material at the waters edge. The hardscape and the coping are the same.

      Thank you! Is there a particular Bluestone color that was chosen? Is the pool tile a blue/turquoise? I am in Southern CA and looking to use the same material for my pool hardscape and coping.
      Thanks again!

      Is this "blue" bluestone, or variegated? What is the decking pattern? Love this whole look. Thanks!

      Is this just a medium grey plaster? Really like the color of the water.

    • 8 years ago

      I absolutely love this pool! The plaster color is so perfect. Can someone clarify what brand/type/color of finish this is? It just says "medium gray stone dust" but I haven't found anything called this. Thank You so much!
