If you are a service company in landscaping or construction and are looking for someone to train you and your team HOW TO BUILD $100k-$1M Dollar SWIMMING POOL Projects send me an email at JonathanPortukalian@gmail.com - Zábava
Leaving you to discover it rather than prepping you for it before you could get out probably just gave you peace of mind. What was done was done at that point. Love the color of that house.
The best part was, he thought he was helping lol. Either way it’s water under the bridge
Hi regards backfill for your pool I have used portable conveyors belts. The great advantage is you’re not messing the site up with machinery going in and out.
I used 6x6 yard long conveyors.
That’s a great idea about feeders, but they just don’t work out for us to get a job done quick because we have to contract one out and the timing just doesn’t work. Plus, we can’t shoot Rock over the pool.
I’d like to use one one day
Yep portable conveyors work great so much time,mess and grass saved using those=very happy clients everytime
@@jonport_ Every time you see a treadmill on the side of the road, grab it. ;-) They are not just good for use as a cloths rack. ;-)
@@JimsEquipmentShed 😂😂🫰
We rent a big air compressor with a 1” line and a 4’ long pipe and valve. I think they call it a blow gun? The air pressure blows the fine gravel into the space under the steps. Turns that 2 hour job into a 30 min job.
Interesting. how well does it actually pack?
We have to watch it doesn’t lift the pool up… so pretty well!
@@ardronlandscapes interesting.
I was just thinking a converted leaf blower could do this even 😂
@@johncolvin2754 haha. No way
Dude. Your composure under stress is admiration city!
🙏🏻 brother that means the world to me! Thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻
Not sure why you choose 3/4" minus instead of sand. Also the sump should be below the pool so any surface water that seeps in can be pump to remove any chance of it popping out. I started installing fiberglass pools back in 1978 and have never used 3/4 ,minus. Over time the rock will stat showing on the sides and bottom from the weight of the water. Also we use the sump to pump out the water as we jet the sand in and pack it that way. I've only had one pool pop due to the customer draining the pool to clean it and leaving the hose run outside the pool and not running the sump while doing it! So 45= years of experience says never use rock! Who ever told you to use it, is sadly mistaken. 5-10 years from now, you will see the rock! - FYI
Kids will jump up from the bottom of pools. If one time they accidentally bump the wall on their way up, they could bash the overhang hard.
With that much overhang... better hope the kids are being watched closely of they could knock themselves out and drown.
Also too sharp at the bottom side. Less overhang and more deflection.
@@Snowy84557 the overhang is a standard 3/4-1in over hang
rock throw truck would make very short work of that. ,
Days for the hands on sad face thumbnail are over. 😂
Never! 😂
That rock sucks for packing you should have used baserock
We use a 3/8 minus crush Stone for packing steps. If there’s any real big gaps, then we use a three-quarter minus. I’ve tried using the bigger rock to pack and it is in nightmare for sure.
Maybe it was a water helicopter 😂
That would be sick lol. I could only imagine.
I would leave that stuff on the pool just added protection.
Its not needed. Fiberglas is extremely durable.
Would anyone consider a flowable fill a mixture of mostly sand, water, and some cement that flows like water, but hardens like rock without vibration or compaction?
@@rinkopr5561 I thought about it. I just don’t know if I want to do it or not.
I would think that sanding should be done BEFORE the water is added...just sayin'
@@dzymslizzy3641 sanding the concrete? Do you think I should’ve not filled the pool up first?
Oh my did it pop?
Luckily it did not
still trying to work out why no sand ? , warranty here is only valid if sand used with crusher dust being the only other allowed base
I like the drainage you get with crushed stone.
Conveyors!!!!
Maybe
What is on the left of the pool that looks like a foundation to walls that where removed (see 2:14).
No, it’s a short foundation wall to support the deck with pillars
@@jonport_ Ok. Thanks.
😮😮I guess I am not sure why he pumped out the water. But I can barely use a hammer.
Haha. If there gets to much water around the shell it can float. Just like a toy in the tub. You definitely don’t want to drain the water in the pool shell because thats whats keeping in weighed down. So you have to be careful
@@jonport_ thanks
1965 called
They want their brick house back
Boomers thinking they know better and helping and screwing crap up…..my dad and father in law were like this.
All good. Honest mistake.
I did not see fines in the rock in the video
It can be hard to see. Packing with that big rock is so hard believe me we’re using small stuff lol
Self loading dump buggy
Idk about them. To big i think?

What’s the point of the sana tube
@@timschregardus5613 i wasn’t able to get good compaction on the rock so we added the tubes for extra support for the concrete patio
@@jonport_ you build pools in Oregon by chance
@timschregardus5613 no sir i don’t. Im in louisville ky. I have done some traveling to build but never Oregon. Are you building yours?
Well, you shouldn't have filled it with money. . .
💵💵💵💵
Should have used FIBREGLASS POOL, rather than that inferior fiberglass stuff you use.
@@meruliouslacrimens5154 not totally sure what the means my man
The whole you dug is too big.
What side?
