You’re not just getting a pool—you’re creating the space where your family will make memories for decades. Your backyard becomes the neighborhood gathering spot, the place where kids learn to swim and adults unwind after long days.
When we’re done, you’ll have a custom inground cement pool that fits your property perfectly and adds serious value to your home. No cookie-cutter designs, no shortcuts that show up later as problems.
The construction process becomes straightforward when you work with contractors who actually know what they’re doing. We handle permits, navigate Georgia’s tricky red clay soil, and keep you informed every step of the way.
Deep Waters Pools started with over 30 years of hands-on experience in concrete, plumbing, and custom pool construction. We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t in South Georgia’s unique conditions.
This isn’t our side business or something we picked up recently. We built this company specifically to serve families in Ashton and surrounding areas who want quality work without the runaround.
Every project gets the same attention whether it’s your first pool or you’re upgrading an existing space. We’re local, we’re established, and we understand exactly what it takes to build pools that last in Georgia’s climate and soil conditions.
We start with understanding exactly what you want and what your property can handle. No pressure, no sales pitch—just honest conversation about what’s possible and what it’ll cost.
Next comes design and permitting. We handle all the paperwork with local authorities and make sure everything meets Georgia’s safety requirements. You don’t have to become an expert in building codes or worry about compliance issues.
Construction begins with excavation, which is where our experience with Georgia’s red clay soil really matters. We have the right equipment and know-how to handle challenging ground conditions without delays or surprises. From there, it’s plumbing, concrete work, finishing, and final inspections.

Every pool we build is custom inground cement construction. That means durability, flexibility in design, and the ability to create exactly what works for your space and family.
Safety comes standard with every installation. We include proper barrier fencing that meets Georgia requirements, and we offer custom pool covers designed specifically for your pool’s dimensions and shape.
Ashton homeowners appreciate that we understand local conditions. The red clay soil here requires specific excavation techniques, and we know how to work with it efficiently. We also understand the permitting process with local authorities and handle all required inspections.
Most custom inground cement pools take 8-12 weeks from start to finish, but Georgia’s weather and soil conditions can affect timing. Red clay excavation sometimes takes longer than anticipated, especially during wet seasons.
We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated throughout construction. Permit approval usually takes 2-3 weeks, excavation and plumbing another 2-3 weeks, then concrete work and finishing.
The key is working with contractors who understand local conditions and plan accordingly. We’ve been building pools in South Georgia long enough to anticipate potential delays and communicate clearly about what to expect.
Georgia requires building permits for any pool deeper than 24 inches, including both inground and above-ground installations. You’ll also need electrical and plumbing permits if your pool includes lighting, heating, or filtration systems.
Safety fencing is mandatory—barriers must be at least 48 inches high with self-closing, self-latching gates. Some counties have additional requirements about setbacks from property lines and utility easements.
We handle all permitting as part of our service. This includes submitting plans, scheduling inspections, and ensuring everything meets local codes. You don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy or worry about compliance issues.
Custom inground cement pools typically range from $60,000 to $100,000+ depending on size, features, and site conditions. Georgia’s red clay soil can add excavation costs, and any required retaining walls or drainage work affects the total.
The investment includes excavation, plumbing, electrical, concrete work, finishing, safety fencing, and all required permits and inspections. Additional features like heating, lighting, or custom covers are separate.
We provide detailed estimates upfront with no hidden costs. Every property is different, so we evaluate your specific site conditions and design requirements before giving you exact pricing.
Red clay becomes extremely hard when dry and sticky when wet, making excavation difficult with standard equipment. It also doesn’t drain well, which can cause problems with pool stability if not handled properly.
Experienced contractors use specialized excavation equipment and techniques to work with clay soil efficiently. We also know how to address drainage issues and ensure proper backfill around the pool structure.
The key is understanding these conditions upfront and planning accordingly. Contractors without local experience often run into delays and cost overruns when they encounter Georgia clay for the first time.
Yes, we include compliant safety fencing with every installation. Georgia requires barriers at least 48 inches high around all residential pools, with self-closing gates and proper clearances.
We also offer custom pool covers designed specifically for your pool’s shape and size. These provide additional safety protection and help with maintenance and energy costs during off-season.
All safety features meet or exceed Georgia requirements. We handle installation and ensure everything passes final inspection, so you don’t have to worry about compliance or safety issues.
We built this company specifically around quality, honesty, and personalized service after 30+ years in pool construction. We’re not trying to be the biggest—we focus on doing excellent work for families in our local area.
Our experience with South Georgia conditions means fewer surprises and delays. We understand red clay soil, local permitting, and weather patterns that affect construction timing.
