Tarps are being hung around the
pool area to protect the house walls from any overspray ...
... and now everything is ready
to go
!!-Underway-!!
The larger dark hose is for the
concrete and the yellow hose has compressed air
and the timber screens were used
when the top of the pool surrounds were being sprayed ...
... and here you can see them in
use ...
... and it is not a clean or an
easy job !!
.
The concrete is sprayed from the
side, starting at the bottom and building up to the top section
The shot below also shows that within
a few minutes the concrete is being levelled and screeded
A very interesting operation to
watch ... everybody knew their jobs and when to do them
Here is where it is coming from
There were three deliveries of concrete
over an approximate three hour period
The top is cut to the required width
and in the background, Richard is screeding the excess off the
walls
The concrete around the pool light
is cleared away as the wall is finished off
The pool entrance, seats and steps
begin to take shape
A good shot showing how the concrete
is built up
Here is the skimmer box ...
... and now it is gone
