Pool Construction

Very Nice Pools has been building custom pools around the world since 1977.  We take a careful and methodical approach to every project, making sure that the needs of the customer come first.

 

First, we review the planned site and discuss layout options with the client.  We take in to consideration the amount of sunlight, surrounding foliage, privacy, and a variety of other factors to make sure your pool is the perfect compliment to your yard.  We'll be able to present finished plans within weeks, and can make changes based upon detailed discussions with the homeowner.

 

As part of the design process, we incorporate "Pool Hydraulics." Pool Hydraulics is the consideration of  water flow, pump size, pool volume, and other factors, to determine the optimum efficency of the pool equipment.  Without this consideration,  many new pool owners find that their brand new pool isn't staying clean.  It is a critical phase, and it is often overlooked by inexperienced pool contractors.  

 

We start the construction process by preparing the site for excavation and digging.  Depending on the type of pool you are installing, the proper foundation is prepared, including rough plumbing and electrical.  Once the foundation is set and inspected,  we focus on the tile, pool features and other aestic effects.  Since we have experience with numerous types of pools, we can assist our customers with the selection of tile, stone, concrete or other types of pool coping.  We want to make your pool a stunning visual element to your back yard landscaping.

 

Based upon our customer selection, we can install most types of pool decking materials, including stone, tile, brick, pavers, and cement.  Not many pool installers take responsibility for the complete project, and we proudly take ownership and responsibility for all the work we do.  With the pool decking complete, we install and set up all necessary pool equipment and perform pressure tests.  We then fill the pool with water, balance chemicals, and complete all work for the final inspection.   We review all maintenance information with the customer and describe the steps necessary to maintain a clean and refreshing pool.  We can also manage the pool maintenance going forward if the customer prefers.  We stand by all our work, and offer extended warranties on our work and equipment.  Please contact us for more details about our pool installation service.
