Thinking about turning your backyard into a private paradise? Building your dream pool is an exciting journey, but it requires careful planning, quality materials, and the right team. At Rhino Pools Pro, we’ve helped countless homeowners bring their dream pools to life, and we’re here to walk you through every step of the process.
Define Your Vision and Budget
Before diving into construction, start with a clear vision. Ask yourself:
What pool shape do I want (rectangular, freeform, infinity)?
Will it be for recreation, exercise, or aesthetic appeal?
What features matter to me? (Spa, lighting, waterfalls, tanning ledge?)
Equally important is setting a realistic budget. Custom pools can vary in cost depending on size, materials, and features. Working with a trusted pool contractor like Rhino Pools Pro can help you align your vision with your financial goals.
Site Evaluation and Design Consultation
Once you have your vision, it’s time for a site evaluation. Our team will visit your property to assess:
Land grading and slope
Accessibility for construction
Soil condition and drainage
From there, our design experts create a 3D custom pool design tailored to your space and preferences. This is your chance to see your dream pool come to life before we even break ground.
Permits and Approvals
Every pool project must comply with local building codes and zoning regulations. Our team handles the entire permitting process, ensuring your pool construction is legal and up to code. We take care of paperwork, inspections, and approvals so you don’t have to worry.
Excavation and Framing
Here’s where the fun begins! We start by marking the area and excavating the site. This step involves:
Digging the pool according to the exact design specs
Installing steel rebar framing for structural integrity
Preparing for plumbing and electrical systems
This phase lays the groundwork for a safe and long-lasting pool structure.
Plumbing, Electrical, and Equipment Setup
Proper circulation, sanitation, and lighting are crucial for a functional pool. We install:
Filtration systems
Pool pumps and heaters
Underwater lights and electrical wiring
All components are chosen for energy efficiency and durability.
Pool Shell Installation
Depending on the type of pool (gunite, fiberglass, or vinyl), we install the pool shell. For gunite pools, this involves spraying concrete over the rebar framework and shaping it to perfection. This step requires curing time to ensure strength and durability.
Tile, Coping, and Decking
Now the beauty starts to shine. We add:
Decorative tile work along the waterline
Coping (the border or edge around the pool)
Decking (pavers, stamped concrete, or natural stone)
This is where your pool truly starts to reflect your style.
Interior Finish and Fill
We apply your chosen interior finish, such as plaster, pebble, or quartz. Then comes the magical moment: filling your pool with water! Your dream is nearly complete.
Final Inspection and Orientation
Before the grand swim, we perform a comprehensive inspection to ensure everything is safe and functioning perfectly. Our team also provides a full orientation on how to use and maintain your pool equipment.
