Vinyl liner pools need replacing every five to ten years. Fiberglass shells can shift or pop in high-water-table ground and Laurens County gets nearly 47 inches of rain a year. That’s not a small detail. It’s the difference between a pool that holds its shape for fifty years and one that becomes a repair bill.
Concrete is different. It cures harder over time, it doesn’t care about ground movement the way other materials do, and it gives you complete design freedom from the start. When you own a few acres outside Rentz, you’re not working with a postage-stamp lot you can actually build the pool you want, not a catalog shape that barely fits.
The other thing that changes when you build right the first time is how you feel about the investment. South Georgia’s swimming season runs close to nine months. That’s not a luxury purchase that’s a backyard your family uses from spring through fall, every single year, on a pool that’s adding value to your property instead of draining it.
We were founded in 2014, but the experience behind us goes back more than thirty years hands-on work in concrete, plumbing, and custom pool construction across South Georgia. We exist because we watched too many families get burned by contractors who took a deposit and disappeared, or finished a job that looked nothing like what was promised.
That’s not a tagline. It’s the reason every project gets treated like it’s going into our own backyard because that standard is the only one that makes sense when our name is attached to the work.
Rentz and the surrounding Laurens County area are part of the service territory we know well. Rural properties, large lots, septic systems, red clay soil these aren’t surprises. They’re the normal conditions here, and building a pool that holds up in them requires someone who’s actually done it before, not someone learning on your project.
It starts with a site visit and a real conversation about what you want, what your property allows, and what the honest timeline and cost look like. For properties in and around Rentz, that conversation often includes a look at your lot size, soil conditions, and whether you’re on a septic system because those factors affect drainage planning and where the pool can go. This isn’t a step most contractors bother with upfront, but skipping it is how projects run into problems later.
From there, we handle the Laurens County permit process. That means working with the Laurens County Building and Zoning Department and, when needed, coordinating with the Laurens County Environmental Health Office for septic site evaluation. If you’ve never pulled a permit before, you won’t need to figure it out that part gets handled by us.
Construction is concrete from the ground up. Once the shell is formed and cured, we install equipment, set water chemistry, and walk you through how to maintain it. If you want ongoing maintenance or a custom pool cover, we set those up before the project closes out. The goal is that you’re not left with questions after the crew leaves you know exactly what you have and how to take care of it.

We cover the full range custom inground concrete pool design and construction, ongoing pool maintenance, emergency pool service, custom pool covers, and free professional water testing. Our equipment service includes all major brands: Hayward, Pentair, Jandy, Sta-Rite, and Zodiac, both older and current models. If you have an existing pool that we didn’t build, that’s not a problem it doesn’t have to be a Deep Waters build to get serviced.
For Rentz homeowners, the water testing piece matters more than people realize. With close to 47 inches of rain hitting Laurens County every year, your pool chemistry gets knocked around regularly. Every heavy rain dilutes your water balance and creates conditions where algae can take hold fast. Free professional testing tells you exactly what your pool needs not a generic recommendation, a precise read on what’s actually in the water.
Emergency service is also available for situations that can’t wait. A pump failure in July, green water the week before a family gathering, a chemical issue that’s getting worse these don’t fit a two-week service window. If you’re in Rentz and something goes wrong, we’re close enough to respond like a local, not a contractor who has to schedule you in from three counties away.
Yes, and it’s not optional. Any inground pool construction in Rentz falls under Laurens County’s building permit requirements. You’ll need approval through the Laurens County Building and Zoning Department before any work begins, and the permit process includes a review of your site plan, drainage, and structural design.
If your property runs on a septic system which is common for rural lots in and around Rentz you’ll also need a site evaluation through the Laurens County Environmental Health Office to confirm the pool placement doesn’t conflict with your drain field. This step gets overlooked by contractors who don’t regularly work in rural Laurens County, and it can cause serious problems if it’s skipped. We handle the permit coordination as part of the project, so you’re not navigating county offices on your own.
Concrete inground pool projects in South Georgia typically start in the $50,000–$75,000 range for a custom build, depending on size, design complexity, equipment selection, and site conditions. Properties with challenging soil, grade changes, or septic system proximity can affect the final number, which is why a site visit matters before any quote is finalized.
What we commit to is transparent pricing from the start no number that looks good on paper and then grows by 20% once construction is underway. For a Rentz homeowner making a significant investment on a real budget, cost surprises mid-project aren’t just frustrating they can derail the whole thing. The quote you get is the number the project is built around, and any changes to scope get discussed before they happen, not after.
Fiberglass pools are manufactured off-site as a single shell and dropped into an excavated hole. That works fine in certain conditions, but in areas with high annual rainfall and clay-heavy soil which describes most of Laurens County ground saturation can cause a fiberglass shell to shift or, in extreme cases, push upward out of the ground. It happens, and it’s expensive to fix.
Concrete doesn’t have that problem. It’s poured and formed in place, bonds with the surrounding soil as it cures, and gets structurally stronger over time not weaker. For a property in or around Rentz where the ground sees nearly 47 inches of rain a year and the soil holds moisture, that structural difference is real. Concrete also gives you unlimited design flexibility, so you’re not choosing from a catalog of pre-manufactured shapes. You design it to fit your property and your family’s needs.
A realistic timeline for a custom concrete inground pool from signed contract to finished project is typically 8 to 14 weeks, depending on permit processing time, weather delays, and project complexity. Laurens County permit timelines can vary, which is one reason starting the conversation in late fall or early winter tends to work in your favor if you want the pool ready before summer.
Weather is the other variable that’s honest to plan around. Rentz gets significant rainfall throughout the year, and excavation and concrete work can be delayed by extended wet periods. We build realistic schedules that account for South Georgia weather rather than promising timelines that assume perfect conditions. The goal is a finished pool that was built right not one that was rushed to hit an optimistic date and shows it later.
Regular pool maintenance covers water chemistry testing and balancing, skimming and vacuuming, filter cleaning, and equipment checks. In Laurens County, the frequency matters more than in drier climates because the rainfall volume here nearly 47 inches annually consistently disrupts water chemistry. A heavy rain event can dilute your sanitizer levels and shift your pH enough to create algae conditions within a few days if it’s not addressed.
During the active swimming season, which in this climate runs roughly March through October, most pools benefit from weekly or bi-weekly professional maintenance rather than a monthly check. Free water testing is included with our service, so you’re not guessing about what your pool needs you’re getting a precise read and a clear recommendation every time. That’s especially useful for homeowners who are new to pool ownership and don’t yet have a feel for what normal looks like in South Georgia conditions.
Yes. We service pools regardless of who built them, and our equipment service covers all major brands Hayward, Pentair, Jandy, Sta-Rite, and Zodiac including older models that some technicians won’t touch. If you bought a home in Laurens County that came with an existing pool, or if you’ve been managing a pool on your own and it’s gotten away from you, that’s a completely normal starting point.
The first step is usually a water test and an equipment inspection to understand what you’re actually working with. From there, we can outline what the pool needs to get back to a healthy, functional state whether that’s a chemical correction, equipment repair, or something more involved. In a rural area like Rentz where the nearest pool supply options are a drive into Dublin, having a service provider who can come to you and handle the full scope of what your pool needs is a practical advantage, not just a convenience.
