Every great backyard pool starts with a plan. At SBW Pools, our custom pool construction process is built around your lifestyle, property layout, and goals. If you're considering a new pool in 2026, understanding how we approach design, permitting, and construction can help you move forward with confidence.
Step 1: Personalized Pool Design
Unlike cookie-cutter pools, our process begins with a detailed consultation. We assess your space, discuss your vision, and create a 3D custom design that reflects your style and needs.
We take into account:
- Yard layout and terrain
- Local zoning regulations
- Feature preferences like spas, water features, or baja shelves
Step 2: Pool Permits and Planning
Navigating city regulations can be complex. Our experienced team handles all permitting on your behalf. This includes preparing architectural plans, submitting them to the city, and coordinating inspections.
As a result, your custom pool construction stays on schedule and within compliance.
Step 3: Professional Construction
Our in-house crew manages the entire build process:
- Site excavation and grading
- Steel and plumbing installation
- Shotcrete or gunite application
- Tile, coping, and decking
- Interior finishing and startup
Throughout construction, we provide consistent communication and expert craftsmanship every step of the way.
