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.

Need design help with area behind pool

8 years ago

So we have rock behind our pool that is basically wasted space. I thought we could add a nice stamped concrete and make it the same height as the pool coping.


My wife isn't a fan as our pool decking gets extremely hot so adding more and darker concrete doesnt sound good to her.


So what else can I put that'll level this area out and make it functional?
