It also compares the products we use to build our pools against our competitors. These steps, photos and illustrations allow our clients to know exactly what they are getting, and understand the process throughout the building of their pool.
Understanding the Process of Vinyl Pool Construction
1
CREATE AN ACCESS
The access is always created with the least amount of destruction, and kept clean as possible.
2
EXCAVATING THE SHAPE
The hole is dug 2′ bigger than the actual pool, creating a ledge for the steel panels and room for box supports.
3
SETTING THE PANELS
The steel panels are set in place and bolted together. These steel panels can be made to create any shape imaginable, customizing is our specialty.
4
ADDING THE BOX SUPPORTS
Box supports are installed every 4′ around the entire pool. The steel panels and box supports are then cemented in place. This system provides tremendous strength to the pool structure and support for concrete decks.
5
INSTALLING THE POOL LINES
2″ flexible PVC plumbing lines are installed. The pipe and fittings are primed and glued for maximum durability. Once all lines are in, they are carefully backfilled with 3/4″ clear gravel, this allows for 100% compaction and excellent drainage.
6
CREATING A ROUGH SHELL
A rough concrete shell is installed to provide a proper base for the finished surface.
7
SMOOTH FINISH
A finished grout coat is hand trowelled creating a perfectly smooth surface on which the liner sits.
8
INSTALLING THE COPING
Installing the double track aluminum coping with a white baked enamel finish for long lasting durability. Coping has a track for the vinyl liner as well as a lock-in winter cover.
9
INSTALLING THE LINER
A custom ordered liner designed to fit the exact profile of the pool walls and bottom, is then installed.

POOL EQUIPMENT
By using rigid PVC pipe to plumb each system, we ensure maximum flow efficiency and professional appearance. All equipment sits on a concrete pad.
