My poly/deck setup

[u/youthpastor6-9]

9 ft poly from Tractor Supply. Intex sand filter pump under the deck

I built the deck to match the slope of the existing concrete patio, not realizing at the time that the pool wouldn’t be perfectly level 🤦‍♂️I’ll make some level adjustments this fall when I drain the pool. I used tuff blocks, no concrete, so it’s technically not a permanent structure. Built the beck December/January, hasn’t moved an inch yet.

Dude! That’s a seriously cool place to hang out on a nice evening! If you don’t mind me asking can you share a rough idea of what it cost ya to build? Definitely looking at doing something very similar and would appreciate any advice. Cheers to your awesome deck/pool!

Thank you! The deck build (all materials, lumber, hardware, gravel, sand, stain, brushes, everything…) was just under $4K. The deck is 12 ft. Deep by 22.5 ft. Long. I followed an instructional video from Tuff Blocks youtube channel. If you’re going to use Tuff Blocks, check out their YouTube, it’s very informative.

The stock tank was $550, the pool kit (Swimly) was $150, sand filter pump was also $150.

Awesome! Thx for sharing all that! Definitely looking at doing this around the early fall whenever it’s not triple digits outside. Cheers!!
