Pool Contracting Process

1. Consultation

To initiate the project, our first step is to arrange a meeting with you to understand your objectives. We provide complimentary on-site consultations for all potential clients, ensuring a risk-free start to your project. During the consultation, we will discuss your goals, budget, preferences, the current state of your outdoor living space, and the desired aesthetic. This is the perfect opportunity to share your vision for the space and address any specific details. We encourage you to provide measurements, notes, and pictures to enhance the discussion.

2. Design

In case your project calls for it, our designers will create mockups of your new pool based on the discussions held during the consultation. These designs will reflect all the details we have previously covered, and any necessary adjustments can be made at this stage. The purpose of these designs is to visually communicate our shared vision, ensuring you have a clear understanding of what to expect from your completed pool.

Once the designs are approved, you will receive an initial estimate for your consideration. If your project doesn’t involve design work, we will proceed directly to providing you with the estimate.

How long does it typically take to install a pool?

The installation timeline for a pool usually ranges from 3 to 8 weeks, which can vary depending on the size and complexity of the project.

What type of pool should I choose?

The choice of pool type depends on factors such as budget, personal preference, and available space. If low maintenance is a priority, options like above-ground or vinyl-lined pools are recommended. For a customized aesthetic, in-ground gunite or fiberglass pools are suitable. Additionally, the inclusion of natural rock or artificial stone waterfall features can enhance the overall look. It is also worth considering energy efficiency, safety features like automatic covers, and UV sanitation systems for cleaner water when making a decision.

How much will it cost to install a pool?

The installation cost of a pool varies based on factors like size, type, and chosen features. Typically, above-ground pools can range from $15,000, while in-ground pools with custom features may cost around $50,000. Apart from the pool’s cost, other expenses such as installation labor, permits and fees, and decking and landscaping should be considered.

Are there any zoning regulations or restrictions to consider when installing a pool?

Before installing a pool, it is crucial to consult your local government regarding regulations. Municipalities often have specific zoning rules concerning pool size, location, and type. For instance, there may be a requirement for in-ground pools to maintain a minimum distance of five feet from property lines. Ensuring proper fencing and safety measures for pool areas, particularly to protect children, is also essential. It is imperative to adhere to all zoning requirements before proceeding with the installation.

How long will it take to install my pool?

The installation timeframe for a pool varies based on factors such as the type, size, and features selected. Generally, above-ground pools can be installed in a single day, while in-ground pools may require 3-10 days, depending on project complexity. It’s important to consider potential delays due to weather or other factors. After installation, additional time is needed for water filling and treatment according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.

How deep should my pool be?

The depth of your pool is determined by the specific activities you have in mind. In general, in-ground pools typically have a depth ranging from three to eight feet, with an average depth of around five and a half feet. Above-ground pools can have a shallower depth of around two feet for wading, or a deeper depth of up to five and a half feet for diving purposes. To determine the ideal depth for your pool based on your intended use, it is recommended to consult with our knowledgeable experts.

What kind of features can I add to my swimming pool design?

Swimming pool features offer a wide range of options to enhance your pool experience. Some popular choices include diving boards, water slides, pool heaters and pumps, swim-in benches, nighttime lighting and fountains, hot tubs, spas, grottoes, and tanning ledges. Additionally, you can choose from design elements such as vanishing edge designs or custom tile patterns to create a unique and visually appealing pool space. When selecting features, it is crucial to prioritize safety and ensure proper access for all users.

Is landscaping important around the swimming pool area?

Landscaping plays a crucial role in transforming a swimming pool area into a stunning backyard oasis. By integrating trees, plants, and flowers, you can enhance privacy, introduce shade, and introduce vibrant colors and textures to your outdoor space. Incorporating hardscape elements like flagstone pathways, pergolas, or retaining walls can also define the pool area and create an inviting atmosphere for relaxation and entertainment. With thoughtful landscaping choices, you can elevate the overall aesthetics and functionality of your pool area.
