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.

What material is around the pool?

4 years ago

Beautiful place!

We are finalizing details for our pool and prefer this look. Will you please tell me if this is concrete, and is it a specific mix/grade ( if even there is such a thing)?

Thank you!

    Thank you. Yes this is exposed aggregate concrete. Not a specific mix, just the local mix to our area, but it is washed to expose the aggregate for slip resistance

    Thank you! Very helpful. And thank you for sharing.

    Do you mind please sharing the name of the pool finish? Stonescapes?

    I believe it is Pebbletec but not 100% sure on that
