tomaway Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi all, With my wife we just bought a villa with a concrete pool. Right now it is using skimmers but I would like to know if it is possible to modify it to become infinite? We have enough space to built a tank for 10% of the capacity of the pool and the gutter to collect the water overflowing. Another point, the grout are blackish and the tiles are dark blue. Is it a big job to change the whole thing to get white grout and clear tiles? Anybody did it already? ThanksTom Sent from my SM-G955F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've built a pool, so I can only talk from my experience. I'm not a pool professional.You can build an infinity pool and change the tiles and grout color; just depends how much money you have to spend.The secret is to get good tilers and concreters at a reasonable rate. This is the hard part, but no problems changing the pool.I would have loved an overflow pool, but I didn't think me and the people I was hiring could do the job. Specially with the sump tank and all the rubbish and animals that would end up in it.Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look at other people's pools and see what trouble they have had. Work on the principal that when they do the job they probably won't come back to fix anything afterwards. This probably doesn't apply to the big reputable companies, but they will probably have a waiting list.Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
