I miss the swimming pool in our back yard.
Don't get me wrong, the pool is technically still there. It just hasn't been used in a long time, as it kept on draining the water. So, without being used, it slowly became a storage place for some of our unused, but not to be discarded, things. At the very least, having a lot of stuff in there is better than what happened to my neighbor's pool; she just can't keep the skaters away.
But now, as we've finally gotten a decent sum of money to fix up the pool, we decided to renovate. It dawned on us that we had little leftover to change the area around the pool, too. The very next day, we went hunting for a suitable type of tile which would work.
As we looked at the prices for tiles, however, we realized that we just don't have enough funds for the classier ones. The cheap ones were not an option, as we'd rather stick to our old poolside tiles than downgrade to those. So that's what we elected to do at the time; go home and just enjoy our newly fixed pool.
When I talked about the tile dilemna with one of my friends, though, he mentioned something interesting. I wasn't aware of it, but he said that we could add concrete tiling to the pool. The surrounding area is concrete anyway; all I had to do was get a contractor to work on it for me.
So there: My friend very kindly logged me on to the Concrete Polishing website and within a matter of minutes found a contractor willing to come over and help with fixing up our pool. We scheduled a meeting next weekend and I'm sure our swimming pool will very soon have a handsome new polished concrete floor. - 15252
