  • Laying pool edging stones and building your own pool terrace for the perfect pool surround

    A rectangular outdoor swimming pool with clear blue water is surrounded by gray tiled paving and pool edge stones. There is a small palm tree, green grass, and hedges in the background. Some tiling work appears unfinished on one side. www.commaik.de

    When building the pool, the correct laying of the pool edge stones and the construction of a beautiful and functional pool terrace played an important role. In this article, I describe how I selected the materials, prepared the substrate, cut and glued the stones. I also show how I laid the terrace loosely and built a platform as a transition to the garden terrace. Building a pool has been one of my biggest DIY projects. In this article, I would like to tell you about my experiences with laying pool edging stones and building the pool terrace.

    In today’s blog entry about palm trees by the pool, I would like to focus on the plant world in our garden and, in particular, our pool oasis. But do palm trees even grow in our latitudes? And what about in winter?
