Our Pool Construction Process

Click each step to expand.

Step 1

Step 1 Special earth-moving equipment excavates the site quickly and efficiently.

Step 2

Step 2 Crews wire together a grid of steel reinforcing bars to the excavation site. Additional steel is added to the deep end.

Step 3

Step 3 Powerful equipment uses compressed air to blow a concrete mix through a hose in and around the steel forms. An extra thick bond-beam is formed around the entire pool perimeter, adding even more structural strength to your pool.

Step 4

Step 4 Piping for the main drain, skimmer and return lines are laid out and pressure tested.

Step 5

Step 5 Tile and coping are hand-fitted, leveled and carefully finished.

Step 6

Step 6 Two coats of waterproof quartz or pebble finish are troweled within the pool's interior to give it a glistening white finish. The final step is to fill the pool with water.

Step 7

Step 7 Relax and enjoy your pool!
