We have assembled a few Frequently Asked Questions to help you know what to expect.  If you have other questions about building, maintaining or just owning a pool please call or send us an email and we would be more than happy to help you.

How does the construction process work?
First, our staff will work with you to finalize the design, we will determine the decking area type of decking and its layout.  Then we will look at  add-on options such as slides, fountains and other such details. Once all details are finalized, we will lay out the pool in your yard  including the deck and any other options you have chosen.  Giving you the opportunity to look at the pool in your back yard, making sure it fits your needs. Next we will begin the excavation and forming your pool into the necessary shape.  We’ll then set the walls, wall braces and pour the footing.   Then we will proceed with pre-plumbing, and electrical, back filling, forming the decking and grading the yard.  Then we will pour the deck and the vermiculite pool floor, drop the liner and fill it up. We always try to remember that our work site is Your back yard.  We will leave your yard as clean as possible Every Day!  To see more details about the building process please check-out the Construction Page of the web site.

Will you support and help maintain my pool after it’s complete                                                                                                            Long ago we chose to do one thing and to do that one thing well, we build, remodel and repair vinyl pools.  We strive to do that so well that we will not hear from you until it is time to replace your worn liner with a new one.  With that said, We believe that the 2nd most important decision you will make concerning your pool is who will help you to take care of it once it is built.  We recommend that you find a company you feel comfortable with and that you make it a point to build a relationship with them.  We have put together a list of companies who understand vinyl pools and how to take care of them.

What Is The Difference Between A Vinyl-Pool and Other Types of Pools?
A gunite pool is the most commonly built pool in this area.  The surface of the pool is probably the biggest difference between them.  A gunite pool has a plaster finish, while the surface of a vinyl pool is a custom made vinyl-liner that fits inside of the shell of the pool.

What are the Advantages of a Vinyl-Lined Pool Versus Other Pools?
Because of the surface, a Vinyl-Lined pool requires fewer chemicals to keep it sanitized.  It's surface is smooth and will remain that way.  There are many different patterns of liners available to choose from.  The pattern of the liner can entirely change the look of the pool. 

What Are The Major Concerns With a Vinyl Pool?
One of the most critical issues with a vinyl pool is proper drainage.  All types of pools are vulnerable to the effects of water given the right circumstances.  We deal with drainage issues at the time of construction.  With minimal maintenance their will never be any drainage issues with your pool

How Critical Is Chemical Balance In a Vinyl Pool?
Chemical balance is important in any pool.  If it is not kept in balance it will cause damage to the pools surfaces and to the equipment.  When you buy one of our pools we tell you the the 2nd most important decision you will make involving your pool is who you choose to help you to take care of it!  We advise our customers to build a relationship with the folks at the pool store.  We work with our customers to find technicians who understand vinyl pools and will value your business as much as we do.
