| - First of all, CDC does not build new pools, they only remodel existing pools.
Our pool needed a makeover. The guy who does our pool repairs recommended CDC; however, I decided to get three other bids.
Not only was CDC far more knowledgeable about the pools, they were also the lowest bid. Our pool is a larger than normal residential pool surrounded by brick planters and mature landscaping. The yard has difficult access, and I am a perfectionist. This job was going to be challenging.
We decided to replaster, retile, and put in new decking (we had Kool-deck from the 1980s.)
My most difficult decision was the decking - there are a lot of choices. CDC has all of the decking options OUTSIDE of their showroom. It was nice to check out the coolness of different materials in the summertime - just kick off your shoes, and walk around on the different types of pool decking. Pool interiors were shown UNDER WATER - the way you will see it in your pool. CDC works with wheelbarrows, NOT backhoes, so they didn't want to tear down part of my brick fencing (a relief).
The work began - I was pretty nervous. Remember, I am a perfectionist.
I was amazed at how efficient the teams are at CDC. They explained to me how everything would proceed. They finished EVERYTHING in less than 2 weeks.
Each and every team (there is a chipping team, a tile team, a decking team, and a plaster team) were truly amazing. I was home every day watching these guys.
They are the hardest workers I have ever seen. They were very professional in their work, and also cleaned up at the end of each day. I had some trouble integrating
the new travertine decking with existing brick steps, but the deck supervisor made some suggestions, and it turned out BEAUTIFULLY.
I am so very pleased with our new pool. The new plaster, the new tile ( a LOT of it), and the new travertine decking are absolutely gorgeous. Every stage exceeded my expectations. From a very picky person - I give CDC Pools my highest recommendation. Thanks, also, to Jim and Mark who were always available to answer my questions.
