Swimming Pool Umbrella - We got Plaster!

We finally got plaster and we are filling today!

We have an umbrella sleeve on the baja shelf.

What type of umbrella do I need to order?

Obviously not a wood base one because that would swell. Is it okay to use an aluminum base?

And - where can I find good ones on-line?

Thanks all, - I'll post pictures after the pool is full. The mosaics are a hit with everyone!

Congrats! Any regular umbrella will be fine as long as its not wooden as you mentioned.

Can't wait to see the final results!

Poolmissy,

We are in the design phase of our pool and noticed the shelf area (some PB call them wet decks, sun decks, sun shelfs, etc.) it's all the same thing. My question is this, what are the 3 pipes on the shelf - bubblers or do you have 3 umbrella sleeves?

Thx
