Thank you so much for your kind encouragement! It was a daunting task but we are proud to have accomplished it!

Thank you so much for your sweet words!💜

Hi there! Thank you so much! No, our walls do not move or budge at all when we are in it. If your walls are bulging or moving at all, then there may be some foundational issues. We have a solid metal wall that came rolled up in one piece and it is very sturdy. It was the hardest part of the pool to put up because it was so heavy.

@@caudillcottage Thank you! I'm actually in the process of purchasing right now so I don't yet have a pool. Been looking at an AquaSport52 which is super strong. Would you happen to have any videos of the pool when there is wave/movement? I'm looking to wrap a deck around it and just really looking to find comfort with the rolled walls. I tried calling a few places, non of the companies seem to have any videos of the walls with movement in the pool :( - Thank you!

We are perfectly happy with our work and the way we decided to go about this project. The ground needed to be compacted as we went along to better secure the foundation of the pool. A tractor or skid loader was the perfect tool to accomplish this. And having clean water delivered was worth every penny, as we have well water at our home which is not suggested for filling pools. We did a lot of research before this build and would not have done anything any different.

6 inches of dirt on that size hole would be 10 cu ic yards of dirt. It's definitely way easier to scrape off an inch of compacted dirt here and there there than hand dig 10 cubic yards of compacted dirt and then haul it out with a wheel barrow.

This is so wonderful and I am so happy for you! It is so much hard work but the results and memories made are worth it!! Thank you so much for your sweet encouragement and for sharing your story with me! 🤍😊

Hi there! Yes, the bottom rails are directly on the ground. It's also important to know to put these on the ground and not on top of sand, as the sand will wash out and make your pool walls collapse. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much!!🩷🤗 The kids loved helping and I enjoy looking back on these memories of them!

Yes! God knew your spouse wasn't on dating sites. Following the voice of the Lord is the only way! 🩷

Thank you so much, sweet Jeanine!🩷 And I agree with you, I'm leaning toward the raw wood desk! I think it would add a lot of character as well! And, I secretly wish this room was mine! Haha! Lucy even said ,"Mom, you know you don't have to just sit in my room with me. You can go do other things!" I just sit in there and admire it, and she just wants the room to herself! 😂

@@caudillcottage You’re welcome Crystal! I agree that it would add a lot of character. That is so funny!!

Yes, we made drainage for rain water around the pool so that water could drain off of the hill and not set in the ground, since our pool is partially in ground. We dug out two feet all around the outside of the pool and laid drainage tiles in the ground and covered them with small gravel. It's not to drain water out of the pool. We use a hose to drain our pool half way before we close it in the fall. I hope this makes sense. ☺️

Thank you so much, Ms. Jeanine!🫶🏼❤️ I never got around to posting my Christmas video because we had the flu so I had to make sure to get my Winter video out. Thank you for always supporting my little channel!🥰
