Once your design is complete, we start building. We request engineering and submit a permit application. With the permit, we schedule a pre-site meeting to review the construction project.

After the pool is precisely laid out, excavation begins with steel reinforcements put in place. The rough plumbing is installed before the final structure inspection is completed.

3. Gunite Application

The concrete crew pneumatically shoots the concrete with state-of-the-art equipment. This is designed to improve the structural integrity of your pool shell for better long-term results.

4. Grade and Plumb

With the concrete shell in place, the deck area is graded and compacted to reduce concrete cracking. The remainder of the plumbing is installed and pressure tested for leaks.

Our deck crew will form the deck area. Then, we can pour the concrete and apply saw cuts to the deck. When done within 24 hours, this can reduce long-term cracking of your pool deck.

If you choose to upgrade your pool with coping, we will install it before the concrete is poured. Tile is then installed around the perimeter of the pool at the 6-foot waterline row.

7. Deck Topping

If acrylic decking is chosen, the texture is added to the concrete before the color coat is applied. If pavers are used instead of Flocrete decking, they are laid out by the paver crew.

8. Electrical

We complete electrical work and install all needed equipment. This includes the filter and pump as well as many optional features that you may choose to give your pool a boost.

We can install an aluminum cage on the decking after we measure the final area. Upon completion of the pool finish, a child barrier fence or alarm system can be installed for safety reasons.

After the screen cage is installed, the pool shell is cleaned and prepped. With the finish applied, the water will be filled to cure, and we'll brush the pool and apply a chemical treatment.

11. Grade and Cleanup

We'll clean up the yard and grade it properly, prepping it for landscaping. With the final pool deck coating and chemical treatment completed, your pool is ready for fun in the sun!

12. Pool School

With our Pool School, we'll provide you with the information you need to maintain your new pool. Just schedule a time with one of our pool pros, and we'll show you proper care and maintenance.
