  • Converting the pool – demolishing the old retaining walls

    A large pile of broken concrete and rubble sits on the floor of an unfinished construction site, surrounded by concrete walls and building materials, hinting at future plans for a pool installation. www.commaik.de

    The pool remodel in our backyard is still in full swing. The steel wall pool is to be converted into a stone pool. For this purpose, the oval steel-walled pool, which is sunk into the ground, must first be dismantled. I had already removed the foil, the skimmer, the inlet nozzles and also the LED underwater spotlight in the previous weeks. The steel wall was also removed in one piece.

    Within 2 days I have now also dismantled my old free-standing BPC pool terrace so that I can finally start building the new pool in the garden. The pool terrace was laid in the garden around the pool a few years ago. Partly the terrace was detached because the pool is on a slope. So in addition to the BPC boards and the WPC overlays, I also had to remove the substructure made of solid larch beams. As I wanted to reuse the individual components, especially the decking boards and the wooden beams, the dismantling had to be well planned. I also documented the construction of my BPC pool deck…
