- What to know before you build your swimming pool - So, you want to build a swimming pool? Custom pool designer, Mike Farley gives you details to think about when you are in the planning stages of wanting to get a pool for your yard. Mike has a background in Landscape Architecture and has been designing swimming pools for 30 years in California and Texas. In this video Mike goes into types of pools, but mainly talks about Gunite inground pools. Thinking about using space, activities, exercising, creating a setting, entertaining, and looking nice are all discussed. Also, where to put the pool, surveys and easements, codes, access and how the shape can affect the price of building a pool.

Thank you for the great info. This is a just great “Backyard pool design 101”
Wow mr.Farley these are what dreams are made of thanx I only ever see these on films ya customers are so lucky luv from yorkshire xx
Awesome job ...you answered a lot of my questions from San Antonio, TX thank you !!
Glad to help!
You are one brilliant designer Mike !
Thanks, great team!
Nice info
This is such a helpful video. I wish I could find a pool builder with as much experience and attention to detail as you, where I live. Surprisingly, I’ve had three consultations from supposedly high end builders, and they don’t seem to give much thought to site analysis. I think there’s so much demand here (Oahu), that the builders just want to build fast and move on to their next job.
Glad it was helpful!
Why can’t I find Part two? Really enjoyed your video
Can you build a slide off the rooftop or treetops
Great video / info: we live in Texas too, but South Texas with alot of soft sand, some clay not much. What type of pool do you recommend for this situation?
Thanks - It's hard to tell without a Soil's report - It would be best to talk to a quality pool builder in your area.
Would love to install a pool but the maintenance costs have me a bit nervous.
Do you have any recommendations for pool builders in the California Central Valley? We are right in between Bakersfield and Fresno Ca.
I really enjoy your videos and I can't wait for part two.
We've been kicking around the idea of having a big pool and lazy river installed, but I do have a couple questions if you don't mind.
Is there any limit, outside of land, to how long you can make a lazy river? I have 80 acres of flat, and mostly clear land, but there is a 10 acre pond on it, here in Louisiana.
I mean can you do a 1,500 foot long lazy river with a lot of twists an turns so it isn't just plain straight runs with a couple of minor turns in it, and what kind of power would be needed, as far as pumps, if that's doable?
Also, have you ever built any tunnels over lazy rivers?
I build Monolithic domes, and I've sprayed 1,000's of yards of shotcrete, so I was thinking........yes I know that's dangerous and expensive, haha, a couple of nice cool dome tunnels to go over sections of the lazy river would be fun to do, but I think we'd have to tie in the rebar of the river and tunnel together to keep the structural integrity of the tunnel so it doesn't want to spread open over time.
Every time we go to Hawaii we all have to ride those sugar cane flumes and they have tunnels that are like a 1,000 feet long and pretty cool, so I was thinking of something along those lines. Thanks and keep up the great work.
you prolly dont care but does someone know a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I appreciate any help you can give me.
@Adam Marcos instablaster ;)
@Jameson Rayan i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jameson Rayan it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
@Adam Marcos glad I could help =)

Sorry, I have no idea who made it - the client purchased it but it is really nice!
Thanks, looks similar to this www.houzz.com/products/riviera-daybed-prvw-vr~83934429
Your mic feed only comes through the left channel, on all of your videos but sound effects come through left and right. So annoying.
Thanks - we bought a new mike! Will try it out on our next photoshoot! (We are getting better at this video thing... your input helps)
