Why this matters

Most pool companies here subcontract. That is where your project stalls.

The standard model in South Florida is a sales company that hires out excavation to one crew, gunite to another, tile to a third and decking to a fourth. When one of them does not show up, your project waits, and the person you signed with has nobody to call either.

01

One crew, one schedule

Design, excavation, steel, gunite, tile, deck and finish are all done by our own people. There is no queue behind another company's job, so the date we give you is a date we control.

02

We pull the permit ourselves

Engineering plans, city submittal and HOA approval are handled in-house. Permitting is the single biggest variable in a South Florida pool timeline, and it is not something we hand to a third party.

03

One name on the result

No blame passed between trades. The crew that digs the hole is the crew that hands you the pool, which is also why the site gets cleaned at the end of every day.

Financing

You do not have to pay for the whole backyard up front

We work with Lyon Financial, a lender that specializes in swimming pool and home improvement financing. Fast approval, no home equity required on most programs, and you start the project now and pay over time.

Approval runs through Lyon Financial. We include the payment estimate in your written scope.

Questions

Before you decide

No. Design, permitting, excavation, steel, gunite, tile, decking and finish are all done by our own crew. That is the whole reason we can commit to a schedule and hold it.

Eight to twelve weeks is typical, and up to sixteen when city approvals run long. Design and planning take 1 to 3 weeks, permitting 2 to 6, and construction about 6 to 8 once we break ground.

We do. Engineering plans, city submittal and the HOA package are prepared and filed by our team, and we follow the file until it is approved. You do not chase anything.

A standard custom concrete pool runs $50,000 to $80,000. With finishes, decking and outdoor living, a complete project is typically $80,000 to $170,000. Luxury builds with premium features run $200,000 and up. Your exact number comes in the written scope after the free consultation.

All of South Florida, from Miami to Palm Beach, including Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Coral Springs, Parkland, Pompano Beach, Weston and the surrounding communities. Our office is in Margate.

Yes. Resurfacing, new waterline tile, new coping, deck replacement, equipment upgrades and full backyard remodels. Same crew, same process, shorter timeline.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper to do it in the same build. The deck, outdoor kitchen, pergola and fire features are designed with the pool instead of retrofitted around it later.
