Building a custom pool should feel exciting, not overwhelming. Here's exactly how we turn your backyard into a private resort — with you informed and in control at every step.
Tap any step to jump straight to the details.
It starts with a complimentary in-home or virtual meeting where we learn your lifestyle, must-haves, and budget range, then walk your property to assess access, grading, sun, views, and utilities.
Your part: share your inspiration, priorities, and budget range.
Our designers create photorealistic 3D renderings so you can "walk" your future backyard before we ever break ground, refining the shape, features, and materials until it's exactly right.
Your part: review the renderings and request revisions.
You receive a transparent, line-item proposal. We finalize every selection — tile, coping, interior finish, decking, and equipment — then sign the agreement and reserve your spot on the build calendar.
Your part: approve the scope and finishes, and sign.
We handle the paperwork: structural and soil engineering, construction drawings, city permits, and HOA architectural approval. This is the biggest variable in any build, and we manage all of it for you.
Your part: provide HOA documents and property access.
We locate utilities (811), protect your property and access routes, and paint or form the exact layout on the ground so you can see your pool's footprint before a shovel touches the soil.
Your part: clear the area and secure pets.
The dig begins. We excavate to the approved design, haul off the spoil, and rough-grade the site, carefully managing equipment and access to protect your yard.
Skilled crews tie an engineered steel rebar cage — the strong skeleton that gives your pool its structural integrity for decades to come.
We install returns, skimmers, main drains, and lines for water and fire features, plus gas, bonding, and electrical rough-in, then pressure-test everything to make sure it's flawless.
Your pool shell is sprayed in place and hand-shaped for steps, benches, and spa. It then water-cures over the following days to reach full strength.
Artisans install your waterline tile, coping, spa, raised walls, stone veneer, and any custom masonry — the details that make your pool unmistakably yours.
Your part: confirm final tile and coping choices.
We build your decking — travertine, pavers, or concrete — along with outdoor kitchens, fire features, pergolas, and the surrounding hardscape that ties it all together.
Pumps, filtration, heating, salt or chlorine systems, LED lighting, and smart automation go in, so you can control your entire pool from your phone, along with your water and fire features.
Your chosen quartz or pebble interior is applied, giving the pool its final color, texture, and feel. Filling begins the moment it's complete.
We start up the equipment, condition and brush the new finish, and carefully balance your water chemistry over the first weeks, then complete final grading, landscaping, and site cleanup.
We walk you through everything with a hands-on "Pool School" — operating your equipment and automation, plus maintenance basics — and hand over your warranty documents and a completed punch list.
Your part: learn your new system and start enjoying it.
You're covered by structural and equipment warranties, with optional maintenance plans and a team that's always just a phone call away.
Most projects take about 8–16 weeks from signed contract to swim, after permits and HOA approval. Timelines vary with scope, custom features, weather, and municipal or HOA schedules — we'll give you a project-specific timeline before we ever break ground.
One point of contact who knows your project inside and out, from the first sketch to your final swim.
Photorealistic 3D renderings mean no surprises — you approve every detail before we build.
Clear, line-item proposals. You always know exactly what you're paying for and why.
Only premium materials and proven methods, backed by relentless attention to detail.
Your complimentary consultation is the first step from backyard to private resort. Let's design something extraordinary together.
