I also designed and constructed the deck myself!

This deck was constructed from eastern white cedar
which I purchased from a local wood cutter here
in Renfrew. It was also sawed and dressed in Renfrew.

We purchased the pool second hand in Pembroke
Ontario for $400.00. Everything was in excellent
condition except the pool liner which had to be
replaced at a cost of $175.00. The deck at this point
had not been finished.

Here the deck is pretty well complete. We added
a series of small 12 volt lights which are concealed
under the bottom rail. They provide a nice
effect at night.

The deck and pool provide a perfect summer get-away.
The total cost for both was less than $3000.00.
Because of the grade of my back yard, the pool
which has a four foot wall, is only out of the ground
about 20 inches. Total construction time of the deck
and pool (most of which is digging and removing soil by
hand) is approximately 72 hours. Please email me if you
have any questions or comments.
