Step 6: Plumbing - The plumbing of your pool may be performed before the shell is

formed. Our skilled plumbers will install the piping and equipment to clean and purify your pool

water. All PVC is schedule 40. This phase I like to compare it to the heart of the human body, it

is one of the most important phases Maintenance down the road is directly related to

plumbing, pipe sizes, lengths, joints etc all play a major role in the long term enjoyment of your

pool.

Step 7: Steel Placement - Steel-reinforcing rods add to the strength and life of your pool

shell.  They are firmly wired together and are placed inside the excavated hole, along the

bottom, up the sides, into the bond beam, and around the skimmers.

Step 8: Inspections - We perform inspections at varying stages of construction.  In addition,

local building authorities will also require inspections. We will notify the proper authorities so

that the construction schedule will continue to flow. This may take a day or two to complete.

Step 9: Pool Shell - Next we work on the actual pool shell.  In order to achieve a reinforced

steel and concrete pool shell of superior strength, a concrete mixture is pneumatically applied

under great pressure to bond tightly around the steel reinforcing rods.

Step 10: Coping - The “lip” of your pool is called the coping.  Our craftsmen install it around

the pool’s perimeter. You have options for your coping, three of which are safety-grip brick,

stone, or other. Not all pools have coping, however, as some pools have cantilevered decks

that extend right to the pool’s edge.

Step 11: Tile - We install tile along what will be the waterline of the interior of the pool. You

have a lot of tile color and design options to choose from to fit your personal tastes.
