Pool Renovations in Charleston
Is it Time for a Pool Renovation?
We have been building pools in the Lowcountry area for nearly two decades. We are licensed specialty pool general contractors in South Carolina and trusted partners to hundreds of homeowners.
Update
Perhaps you’ve just moved into a new home and the pool needs resurfacing. Perhaps you’ve enjoyed your pool for decades and now it’s deteriorating. Pools are special places not only for entertainment, but for our mental and physical well-being. We want them to be in great shape so that we can reap those benefits for years to come.
Repair
If you have structural damage, visible cracks, leaks, or settling of the pool shell, we can help. Discolored and peeling or flaking plaster is also a sign that it’s time for a pool renovation. Our expert team has renovated many pools in the Lowcountry and specializes in ensuring the structural integrity in our extreme climate.
Modernize
If you’re seeing cloudy water, chronic algae growth, or increasing challenges for maintaining the appropriate chemical balance, modernizing your equipment can improve your pool’s maintenance efficiency and avoid costly repairs in the future.

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.Â
Weather, inspections, and scope of work can impact timing, but we work hard to keep your project moving and communicate along the way.Â
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 3-4 months.
