Will my yard be relanscaped upon completion?

Because of the heavy machinery we must use to excavate the area, its very common for the grass to be torn up from the entrance to the surrounding pool area. This is a very common cost compared to the many benefits that a new pool provides to you. While we can lay grass in the areas surrounding the pool upon your request, it is not a cost included in our quote pricing. 

How long does the pool construction process take?

The timeline of pool construction can vary depending on the size and complexity of the pool. The waiting period for special materials, as well as poor weather can delay completion of construction. On average, the construction process can take anywhere from several weeks to several months. Once plans are drawn, your contractor can provide you with an estimation for your specific project.
