As we claim to be in a 4-year drought in Texas, progress has been halted on the pool due to multiple episodes of rain! Let me make this clear- I am not complaining about the rain!!
The deck was officially finished in 2014, as the guys packed up to leave at 10:30 p.m. of 12/30/14. It was neat to watch the process of getting the concrete to the backyard by hundreds of wheelbarrow trips. They parked the cement truck at the street out of courtesy to preserve our driveway. So, they had about 20 guys hauling wheelbarrows full of the mix. Once they got everything smoothed out, grooved, and dried the perfect amount, then they washed the top layer of to reveal the aggregate, or pebble, finish.
Because of the forecast, they put a tarp over the entire deck. Thank goodness for the tarp because we got a considerable amount of rain for several days!
