Pool Builder Services
Custom Pool Construction
We design and build gunite pools tailored to each property's layout and the homeowner's preferences.
Our process starts with a design consultation, followed by engineering, permitting, and excavation. We manage every phase in-house, which keeps timelines predictable and communication direct.
Pool shapes range from geometric designs to freeform layouts with tanning ledges, baja shelves, and integrated seating. We work with clients to select finishes, tile, and coping that match the home's exterior.
Construction typically takes several weeks depending on size and site conditions. We coordinate excavation, plumbing, electrical, and gunite application in sequence to avoid delays.
Our team also handles the final steps, including decking and equipment installation, so the pool is ready for use once construction wrap
Pool Remodeling
We remodel aging swimming pools to improve their appearance, safety, efficiency, and functionality. Services include pool resurfacing, replastering, tile and coping replacement, plumbing upgrades, equipment modernization, and pool deck repair. We can also reshape the pool or add Baja shelves, raised spas, waterfalls, LED lighting, and energy-efficient circulation systems. Before construction begins, we inspect the pool shell, plumbing, decking, and equipment to determine what can remain and what should be replaced.
Pool Re-plastering
We replaster worn swimming pools to restore a smooth, watertight surface and protect the underlying gunite shell. Warning signs include rough patches, persistent stains, discoloration, surface cracking, and exposed aggregate. Our process includes draining the pool, removing or preparing the old finish, repairing damaged areas, applying the new surface, and completing the proper pool-startup procedure. Choose from standard white plaster, quartz aggregate, and durable pebble finishes in various colors and textures.
Hardscape Services
Patios
We install custom paver patios using concrete pavers, travertine, porcelain, and natural stone selected for durability, heat resistance, and traction. Proper excavation, base preparation, compaction, edge restraints, and grading help prevent shifting while directing water away from foundations and pool equipment. Choose from herringbone, running bond, basketweave, and other patterns in colors and textures that complement your home. Each patio is built to support outdoor furniture, foot traffic, and year-round exposure while creating a functional outdoor living space.
Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces
We construct fire pits and outdoor fireplaces using stone, brick, and stucco finishes that match the surrounding hardscape. Options include:
- Wood-burning fire pits for a traditional setup
- Gas fire pits with push-button ignition for convenience
- Built-in fireplaces as a focal point for larger patio areas
- Seating walls built directly into the fire feature design
Outdoor Kitchens & BBQ Islands
We build custom outdoor kitchens and BBQ islands with built-in grills, durable countertops, stainless-steel cabinets, storage, and food-preparation space. Available features include sinks, refrigerators, side burners, pizza ovens, beverage centers, electrical outlets, and bar seating. Each layout is designed around the patio, entertaining area, shade structures, appliance clearances, ventilation, and traffic flow. We coordinate the required gas, plumbing, drainage, and electrical connections using weather-resistant materials suited for outdoor conditions.
Driveways and Walkways
We install custom driveways and walkways using concrete pavers, permeable pavers, natural stone, porcelain pavers, and decorative concrete. Each project begins with excavation, soil evaluation, subgrade compaction, and aggregate base preparation to create a stable foundation. Proper grading and drainage help reduce standing water, erosion, shifting, and premature cracking. Driveways are designed for vehicle loads, while walkways are planned for comfortable access between entrances, patios, pools, and outdoor living areas. Choose from herringbone, running bond, basketweave, and other patterns that complement your home and surrounding landscape.
Pergolas and Patio Covers
We design and install custom pergolas and patio covers that add shade, comfort, and structure to outdoor living spaces. Options include freestanding or attached designs with wood, aluminum, solid-roof, lattice, or adjustable-louver systems. Each structure is planned around the patio layout, sun exposure, drainage, footing requirements, and connection points. Integrated features can include recessed lighting, ceiling fans, electrical outlets, privacy screens, and outdoor heaters. Materials and finishes are selected to complement the home, pool deck, outdoor kitchen, and surrounding hardscape.
Complete Backyard Remodeling
We provide complete backyard remodeling that combines pool construction or renovation, hardscaping, landscaping, and outdoor structures into one coordinated project. Services may include custom pools and spas, paver patios, pool decking, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, pergolas, lighting, and planting areas. Our team plans the layout around property access, grading, drainage, utilities, entertaining space, and traffic flow. Each construction phase is carefully sequenced so excavation, plumbing, electrical, structural work, and surface installation occur in the proper order. This design-build approach creates a cohesive outdoor living space while reducing the need to coordinate multiple contractors.
Plan and Design
Custom Pool Design Process
Our design process starts with a consultation to discuss goals, budget, and how the space will be used. We then create preliminary drawings that show pool shape, size, and placement within the yard.
Once we finalize the layout, we move into detailed engineering plans that account for structural requirements and equipment placement. These plans go through permitting before construction starts.
We include material selection during this phase as well. Homeowners choose tile, coping, decking, and finish options based on samples and, in many cases, renderings that show how these elements will look together.
Measuring Your Space for a Pool
Before finalizing any design, we conduct an on-site survey to measure the yard's dimensions and identify existing features. This includes property lines, slope, drainage patterns, and the location of utility lines.
We also check for easements or setback requirements that affect where a pool can be placed. Santa Clarita's building codes specify minimum distances from property lines and structures, which we factor into the layout.
Soil composition matters too. We may recommend a soil test, particularly on hillside lots or properties with a history of drainage issues, since this affects excavation methods and structural design.
Pool Layout and Planning
Layout decisions balance function, aesthetics, and the practical constraints of the lot. We consider sun exposure, sightlines from the house, and how the pool area connects to existing outdoor spaces.
Placement also depends on access for construction equipment. Narrow side yards or tight lot configurations sometimes limit pool size or shape, so we address this early rather than after design work is complete.
We map out surrounding hardscape elements, such as decking, walkways, and seating areas, alongside the pool itself. This ensures the finished layout functions as one cohesive space rather than separate, disconnected features.
