About 14 days all in.. but a lot of time was taken up bull nosing and polishing tile edges.

The pool wall was too self level as you see in opening page and an un-coupling membrane used as pot/beam floor and i didn't want lateral stress cracking the stone.

Tanking of the shower wall was done..loads and loads of little finishing bits , so it is time consuming but worth the finished product..

This is the first time I've seen this thread.

I'm truly gobsmacked at how fanstastic it looks, I literally can't put into words how good a job it is!

I've never seen anything like it...... and this is coming from an absolute perfectionist.

That takes some seroius, seroius skill, how long did it take you Dave?
