How We Work

Our Pool Installation Process

Our extensive pool installation process ensures that you save time, money, and the headache of hiring multiple contractors. This approach works well, regardless of the project size. Take a look at the process!

Form / Excavate

Our experts form the pool according to the design and excavate inside the forms to create the hole for the swimming pool.

Shotcrete

Shotcrete is sprayed into the forms after the excavation, plumbing, and steel have been installed.

Tile / Stone

Once the shotcrete has cured, our team will install the tile, and then the stone masons will follow with the stone coping.

Deck / Pebble

Now that the stone is down, our team will form and pour the decking. This is followed by the pebble installation.

Fill / Startup

After the exposed aggregate has been installed, we will fill the swimming pool with water and add start-up chemicals.

Clean-up

With the swimming pool full, our team will go to work installing the spray deck and final clean-up.
