Pool Construction FAQ

There are multiple stages in the pool construction process. The exact stages of building a gunite pool (which is what we specialize in) are as follows:

The first initial stages involve permitting and layout of the pool/spa as well as any other outdoor amenities. After this occurs we can get started with the excavation of the pool area. We’ll form the area of where digging will occur and shape the pool to your desired dimensions. Heavy machinery will be brought in to excavate the location where your pool will be installed. This process is very exciting to watch and you may want to be there for “dig day”. It’s when the entire project becomes real and the process of you getting a pool goes from dream to reality.

The steel rebar installation, plumbing & electrical installation, and gunite application can all occur after your pool excavation has been completed. Once these phases of construction have been completed and inspected; tile and coping installation, as well as the deck installation, take place.

After these stages are completed, a plaster, pebble, or tile interior will be installed (to your preference). We then conduct a proper pool startup process and teach you to operate and maintain the pool equipment. This is an abbreviated Reader’s Digest version of the process, but gives you an overview of what is involved.

Your pool designer and project manager will help guide you through the exact process of what is involved as the project progresses. Bar none, this is what separates us from other pool construction companies in the local area.

Because gunite pools are custom pools with unique features and materials, the cost of building a concrete pool is typically more than that of a vinyl liner or a fiberglass pool. It’s unquestionably higher than an above-ground pool.

One key factor to consider is whether or not you’ll choose to include a spa. This popular add-on feature can normally increase the total cost of an inground swimming pool between 15% and 25% than the cost of the standard pool.

The size of your pool (often measured in perimeter feet), depth, shape, and design elements you choose will also impact the total price. This in conjunction with whatever pool features, equipment and technology options (e.g., pool automation) also play a factor in determining the cost of your pool. Ultimately, material choices and accessories (e.g., a pool slide or waterfall), construction and labor costs, and soil conditions are all determining factors in estimating the cost of a pool in San Antonio.

Determining how long your pool construction project will take involves getting an accurate assessment of building your pool and what other backyard elements we will be handling as part of the pool installation. In addition to the construction of pools, we also handle decking and the installation of outdoor amenities such as outdoor kitchens, pergolas, pavilions, fire pits, and more.

Typically most pool construction projects take between 12-14 weeks to complete, however, this timetable by no means constitutes an estimate on how long your specific project will take. Depending on the complexity and scope of work, the exact time table for construction might be more or less.
