Inflatable pool with decking

Hi everyone,

 

Hope everyone is keeping well. 

Any one else felt summer was short lived?

My husband really wanted a swimming pool, an in- ground pool  was not an option for us. My husband bought an Intex Metal Frame Rectangular splash pool and during the first week of January, we stated building the decking around the pool. Completely w within week. We enjoyed the pool during the hot summer. 

It took  a few month before we stain it- we used cabot's deck & exterior stain water based in jarrah.

 

Just two week ago, I made the planter box around it. 

The pool is officially completed.. Finger cross there is a few summer days to enjoy before we drain the water, until next summer.

It was a very fun project and it has dramatically transformed the look of our backyard ..Loving it

What an innovative way to be able to take a dip without the cost of a permanent installation @stelz. Your final results look amazing! The outdoor shower is a nice touch, as well. Did you build it from scratch, or is it a pre-made unit?

 

Well done, and many thanks for sharing your project, as I trust it will be of great inspiration to those members that can't install an in-ground pool.

Hi Mitchell,

 

Thank you, definitely  an easy win for a pool.

 

The outdoor shower was on sale so we purchased it 2years ago  as the main inspiration to complete the pool.

Thank you Mitchell,

 

Defiantly an easy win for a pool.

 

The outdoor shower was purchased a year ago as the main inspiration for the pool.

Gee that looks beaut and similar would look really good in my backyard.  A quick question.  Does a pool like this require dedicated pool fencing?
