Can a digger get in?
A standard excavator needs an 8 ft opening. Smaller is fine. It just changes the machine and the schedule.

Your yard
Will a pool fit my yard?
Most yards work. On a free site visit we check four things, and tell you straight.
Is the yard flat?
Flat is easiest. A slope may need a retaining wall, or it can become a vanishing edge with a view.
No extra walls.The simplest build.
What's underground?
Before we dig we mark every gas, power, water and sewer line, and test the soil for rock.
- Free utility locate (811)
- Soil and rock test
- Septic and drain field check
What do the rules allow?
Cities set how close a pool can sit to property lines and easements. HOAs add their own. We check both and pull the permit.
- Setbacks and easements
- HOA approval package
- Required safety fence
Bring to the visit: a few yard photos, your property survey, and HOA rules if you have them.

Finishes
Choose the color
of your water.
The finish inside the pool decides what color the water looks. Pick one and watch it change.

Coping
The equipment, in plain English.
Six parts run your pool. We size each one for your pool and explain the choices.
- Pump
Moves the water. Variable-speed models use up to 80% less power.
- Filter
Catches dirt. A cartridge filter needs a rinse about twice a year.
- Heater
Heat pump for spring and fall swims. Gas to heat the spa fast.
- Salt system
Makes its own chlorine. Softer water, fewer chemicals to buy.
- Automation
Run the pool, spa, lights and heat from your phone.
- Lights
LED, any color, on a timer. They make evenings.
