Happy #womeninconstruction week!
What happens here
Begin by preparing the area around the pool edge where the coping will be installed. Apply a bed of mortar mix evenly onto the prepared surface. Carefully place a piece of natural stone coping, such as flagstone, onto the fresh mortar. Press the stone firmly into the mortar bed, adjusting its position to ensure it is level and properly aligned with adjacent pieces and the pool edge. Ensure consistent mortar coverage for a strong bond.
Goal: Secure natural stone coping around the edge of a swimming pool.
