We’re going to see this family on the news in a few years. Family suffers tragic accident from deck and pool collapse.

My neighbor built a deck just like you did. It looked beautiful. I had just bought a volvo station wagon and drove it to the back of my house. My next-door neighbor immediately called code Enforcement on me. I guess she didnt like the volvo and tried to get it off her sight. She used to walk on my property to get to her friend with the pool. Will code enforcement came and told me to move the volvo. I put it in the garage. Due to neighbor calling code enforcement , the enforcement decided to check out the pool deck. It had no permits for the deck work. The neighbor had to tear it down. Due to the other neighbor's complaints.

The fact that you built your family a pool with noting but your own hard work is really incredible. Well done🙏🏽
-
Your kids will remember this…they had a Dad who built them a pool and deck, this labor of love legacy will definitely live long in their hearts, they will remember they “helped” you too I’m sure hehehehe… stay blessed and beautiful!!
-
As a woodworker, don’t listen to them Reddit trolls and haters, they will ALWAYS find something, anything to tear you down. You did an amazing job. This gives me an idea of how much our pool & deck idea we’ve had for a few months more, could come out to save what to likely expect. Thanks for sharing your process. God bless y’all. Cheers from Texas Cannonball

Omg people are always going to find the negative and try to tear people down. I think it’s GREAT, it does NOT look like a beginner did it. Y’all will enjoy this for many many years to come. Consider yourself blessed to have the 7k to do this project for starters, think about how much the family will bond together, and the priceless memories! It’s absolutely beautiful and I give you a gold star! Well 5/5 or 10/10 lol how ever you want to rate it. Way to go guys!
-
Oh man!!! The kids in the pool watching Bad Guys on a big screen!! That's awesome!! What a damn cool dad!
-
Negative feedback comes from people with little to no skills, you did a great job, I really enjoyed you working, you put a lot of love in this built, can't wait to see your next project, Hallelujah

We bought a pool from Rec warehouse 19 years ago. We sunk our pool used railroads ties to hold frame wall up, for extra security . Had our ground dug up'ed. Our pool looks like a in ground pool. Built a deck all the way around pool. Had concrete poured for extra patio for lounge chair, grill, and patio table. We also upgrade liner and pump. Bought wedding cake steps. We love our set up. Cost less than 5k. I can't believe we had it 19 years, time flys by. kids are all grown up. Grand baby enjoys it now. I love getting in pool after yard work and gardening. Have fun making memories in your pool. Yours looks great! You did an amazing job. Go dawgs! Ga resident. Codeword, Cannonball.

I love how u so casually say something is not up to code and just keep doing it…lol love it.
-
You put a lot of hard work into this. I’m bet your family is happy to have a dad that’s able to build this for them. Many cannonballs to come!
-
I actually never fast forward, never skip, and watch the entire video from the start to the end, I think you did an amazing job
-
CanonBall! Most of the viewers are regular Joe's like me that have little or no experience with deck building and I don't plan on being an expert. I just want to build a deck that is safe, cost efficient and fun! So much thanks for making this video as informative and enjoyable to watch!
-
As a maintenance director, I just wanna let you know that my opinion is that you thought out everything pretty well. At the end of the day,you did a great job. ….I would’ve left the post for the gazebo, but it does look nice that way. Fun to watch, and looks really great.
-
Cannonball!!! You are the best Dad!!! Enjoy with your family that great pool!!!
-
Man, seeing your kids enjoy the outdoor movie from the pool raft at the end makes this all worth it. Cheers! ...and cannonball!!!
-
As thewner of an above ground pool, I’m envious of how beautiful this turned out. Great job.
-
Bro the "catastrophic failure" of a car driving through a pool got me so good
-
For the Gazebo, add in a pair of diagonal supports to transfer the load from where the post was to the posts on either side, this will prevent the sag, prevent future pain and suffering and still keep an open area for you.
-
Your kids will have great memories of the pool " daddy built " this is priceless. Please enjoy the Pool and BBQs dude 😎
