During the installation process, the hole is excavated, dirt removed and the pool shell placed on a crushed, compacted gravel. From this point, the shell is leveled, plumbed, backfilled, equipment set with electricity and the pool is filled with water. After it passes QC, your project will move into the next phase which is typically concrete or masonry depending on your design. Final features are added to bring your Staycation to life.

During the pre-construction phase, your design and details are all completed to ensure your construction phase matches what you purchased. There are always changes you can make during the process as you see the pool placed in the yard and walk the project. Visit with our swimming pool contractor team during construction to add to your project.
