FAQs
Q: How long does a plunge fiberglass pool take to install?
A: Most plunge pool projects take about 4-6 weeks to complete from the start of excavation to final inspection.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Utility Mark Out and Pool Layout
- Installation & Plumbing (5–10 business days): We excavate, set the pool, plumb it to the equipment pad, and complete all required inspections during this phase
- Finishing Work (2–4 weeks): Hardscaping, fencing, and landscaping add time depending on your specific design choices and contractor availability.
- Final Inspection: After a walkthrough of the pool and equipment with homeowner, the final inspection with the town / county will be organized to close out the project.
Weather, inspections, and scope of work can impact timing, but we work hard to keep your project moving and communicate along the way.
Q: What is a Gunite pool and how long is the process?
A: Gunite pools offer a unique and durable option that allows you to customize your pool to your exact specifications. Gunite pools are constructed with a combination of concrete, sand, and water, creating a mixture that is sprayed onto a steel-reinforced frame. This application allows for a variety of shapes and sizes, and provides a long-lasting, durable pool surface. The process typically ranges from 4-6 months.
