Gunite Pool Construction
Gunite pools offer unmatched durability through reinforced concrete construction. Our process begins with rebar framework sprayed with concrete mix, followed by custom finishes like colored plaster and decorative coping. Clients benefit from fully customizable shapes, depths up to 8 feet, and lifetime warranties on select models. This service caters to homeowners seeking permanent, high-value outdoor investments.
Vinyl Liner Installation
Vinyl liner pools provide cost-effective customization through flexible sheet installation. We offer thickness options and patterns from manufacturers like Tara Liners. Standard shapes include rectangles, ovals, and kidney forms, with pricing starting at $35,000. Liner replacements begin at $3,000, making this an accessible option for budget-conscious clients seeking smooth surfaces and easy maintenance.
Fiberglass Pool Installation
Fiberglass pools deliver quick installation with pre-molded shells. Available in over 50 designs including classic, freeform, and tanning ledges, these pools feature non-abrasive surfaces and chemical efficiency. We offer lifetime warranties on Trilogy Fiberglass Pools with installation starting at $48,000. Ideal for clients prioritizing low maintenance and rapid project completion.
Pool Renovations
Our renovation services address aging infrastructure through replastering, liner replacement, tile updates, and drainage system improvements. We specialize in converting traditional pools to saltwater systems and repairing structural issues. Clients receive free consultations to assess leak detection needs and modernization opportunities, ensuring extended pool lifespan with minimal disruption.
Outdoor Hardscape Design
We create integrated outdoor environments featuring fire pits, retaining walls, patios, and outdoor kitchens.
