Building the pool is only the beginning.

Between chemicals, routine maintenance, equipment servicing, and eventual resurfacing, pool ownership comes with ongoing costs that are important to understand before you break ground.

That doesn’t mean a pool isn’t worth it. It means you should know exactly what you’re investing in from the start.

The right pool can become the center of your family’s life for decades — and making the right decision starts with knowing the full picture.

Everyone obsesses over the pool. Almost nobody thinks about what they'll actually stand on.

That's a mistake — the deck is what you live on. It's what you walk across barefoot in July.

Here's what we work with: travertine and natural stone stay cool in the sun, which matters a lot in Tennessee summers. Concrete pavers are flexible and easy to repair if something cracks. Porcelain holds up well and doesn't need sealing.

We talk about decking on day one of the design process — not after the pool's built, when changing your mind gets expensive fast.

This homeowner loves mermaids — so we built one into their pool.

We placed a mosaic mermaid right in the center, then carried the theme through with iridescent glass tile along the waterline and down the swim lane. It mimics the shimmer of scales and catches the light beautifully in the sun.

One thing worth knowing: glass tile costs more than porcelain, and not just for the material. The underlayment and labor are different too, and it has to lay perfectly flat. We use products like Laticrete epoxy to make sure it never moves.

Three things we always cover before we break ground on a pool for a family with kids.

First, an automatic safety cover — motorized, strong enough to support weight, and it's on the pool anytime it's not in use.

Second, fencing — four feet minimum, a self-latching gate, and no foot holds for climbing.

Third, depth transitions — where the shallow end starts and how gradual the slope is. It matters more than most people realize.

A pool should be the best part of your backyard. Let's make sure it's the safest part too.

Three pool myths we hear all the time — and the truth behind them.

Myth: saltwater pools are chemical-free. They're not — the system just makes chlorine from the salt instead of you adding it by hand.

Myth: pools are a maintenance nightmare. If it's built and set up right, with good automation and the right chemistry, you're not fighting it every weekend. The horror stories come from pools built wrong from the start.

Myth: a pool won't add value to your home. In a market like Chattanooga, a well-built pool absolutely does. Buyers respond to outdoor living here.

If a pool quote comes in way lower than everyone else's, don't celebrate yet — here's what usually gets cut to get there.

The steel. There's a big difference between a rebar schedule built for 30 years and one that just checks the minimum box.

The concrete shell. We shoot ours at 10 inches minimum. Some builders go as low as six to save on materials and time — and thinner concrete cracks sooner.

The waterproofing. Done right, it's multiple steps with professional-grade products. Done cheap, it might be a single coat.

The equipment package. A cut-rate pump and filter might work for a few years — then you're replacing it.

The lowest quote almost always cuts what you can't see once the pool's in the ground — right where it matters most.

Saltwater, chlorine, or a naked pool system — what's actually different?

Chlorine is the classic way to keep a pool clean and balanced. Saltwater is a great option too, but here's what most people don't know: on a microscopic level, salt turns into chlorine. So you're not actually escaping chlorine — you're just adding it a different way. The real difference is how it feels on your skin and hair, and the smell.

If you want to get away from harsh chemicals altogether, we'd point you to the naked pool system — a fresh water system that uses copper and silver ions to clean the water. It's gentle on sensitive skin, great for pets, and the water is soft enough to water your plants with.

🏗️ Ever wonder how a pool actually gets built?

Here's every step — from dirt to your first swim. 👇

⛏️ Excavation
We dig and prep the site — the foundation of everything.

⚔️ Steel Cage & Rebar
The most critical step for longevity. #4 rebar reinforces the 4,000 PSI concrete — keeping your pool strong for generations.

🛡️ Waterproofing
Full prep and waterproofing before anything else goes on.

🪨 Tile & Coping
Coping stone sits on top of the concrete. Tile lines the waterline right beneath it.

🏡 Decking & Hardscape
The entire area surrounding your pool — where the memories get made.

✨ Finish
Your color, texture & final waterproofing layer. We offer EcoFinish, Hydrazzo, pebble & quartz.

🏊 And the best part?

Once the finish goes in, we fill it immediately — and you could be swimming in as little as 30 days. 🗓️
