Our Pool Construction Process in Watkinsville

Our process is designed around quality and customization. From initial vision to the final reveal, we work closely with our clients to ensure total transparency and a transformation that exceeds expectations. Pool installation can seem like an overwhelming endeavor, including the total excavation of your property. We make it easy and enjoy sharing our process with potential and recurring clients.

Consultation and Site Evaluation

Our experts arrange a visit to your property in order to gather information about your goals for the addition. Following our formal initiation, we assess terrain, take measurements, and review local codes. Once everything is greenlit, we start to bring your dream pool to life.

Custom Pool Design on Paper

In addition to sketches and drawings, our designers craft 3D renderings, including finishes, water features, lighting, and deck options, to present to our clients. After consultations, we work with you and apply revisions until you’re delighted and excited.

Permitting and Approvals

Any time there’s a structural change to property, there’s red tape involved. We handle all permit applications, HOA approvals, and coordination with city authorities in Watkinsville, GA, to take the pressure off our clients.

Excavation and Steel Reinforcement

Once approvals are given from all sources, it’s time to dig and prep. Site preparation includes grading and electro-welded steel cage installation to ensure structural integrity and a pool that stands the test of time and use.

Plumbing, Electrical, and Shells

Once the steel frame is set and confirmed by our engineers, we begin to incorporate high-quality plumbing and wiring (specifications all dependent on design and light customization) followed by shotcrete or gunite shell construction.

Finishes, Decking, and Coping

Now that the base of the pool is set or installed, we start the application of tile, plaster, and stone coping while simultaneously installing the decking, also based on your preferences, whether concrete, pavers, or wood.

Equipment and Automation

When the structural system is in place, we begin to set up pumps, filtration systems, heaters, lights, and optional smart home integration. This is when the magic happens, and your vision begins to emerge.

Final Inspection and Fill

We don’t fill and run! Once the pool is settled and ready to take on water, we conduct system tests, make necessary adjustments, and offer a thorough inspection before filling the pool.

Final Walkthrough

After your pool has been filled and observed, we offer our clients a guided orientation to your new pool, including maintenance requirements like equipment operation and safety features, as well as routine tips and tricks for optimized use and care.

Hand off and Ongoing Support

We hand you the proverbial keys to your new oasis and say, “See you around.” Enjoy our offerings of seasonal maintenance, repair support, and performance check-ins at your convenience.
