Services
New Pool Construction
We design and construct custom inground pools tailored to property specifications. Our process includes site preparation, steel reinforcement, plumbing installation, and finish options like quartz-based plaster. With direct-employment crews, we ensure structural integrity through 6-8 inch steel grid spacing compared to industry-standard 10-12 inches. Projects include compliance with local zoning codes and complete landscaping integration.
Pool Maintenance
Our maintenance services cover chemical balancing, filtration system checks, and seasonal equipment adjustments. Technicians perform weekly or biweekly visits including water testing, debris removal, and circulation optimization. We provide algae prevention treatments and equipment diagnostics while educating clients on pH management and cost-effective chlorine alternatives like saltwater systems.
Pool Renovations
We modernize aging pools through resurfacing, vinyl liner replacement, and equipment upgrades. Services include installing energy-efficient variable-speed pumps, LED lighting systems, and salt chlorination units. Our team also adds recreational features like spillover spas, diving boards, and safety enhancements while extending pool lifespan through structural repairs and decking restoration.
Pool Openings and Closings
Our technicians handle winterization and seasonal startup procedures. Winter closing includes water level adjustment, equipment shutdown, and secure covering. Spring openings involve debris removal, system reactivation, water chemistry balancing, and safety inspections. We ensure freeze protection for plumbing lines and verify filtration efficiency before client use.
Masonry and Landscaping
We create durable stone features including patios, retaining walls, and outdoor kitchens. Our hardscaping integrates with pool designs using premium materials like natural stone and concrete pavers. Landscaping services include plant installation, irrigation systems, and decorative fencing. Projects emphasize year-round usability through fire pits, shade structures, and climate-adapted plant selections.
