More Than Water—Your Family's New Favorite Place

You’re not just getting a pool. You’re creating the space where your family will make memories for decades to come.

Picture summer evenings when the kids are splashing while you relax on your custom tanning ledge. Weekend gatherings where friends gravitate toward your stunning outdoor oasis. Quiet mornings when you have your coffee beside water that reflects the Georgia sunrise.

That’s what happens when pool design goes beyond basic rectangles and cookie-cutter layouts. When someone actually understands how you want to live in your backyard and has the expertise to make it happen.

Pool Builders Fairfax Georgia

Three Decades of Building It Right

We’ve been building custom inground cement pools in South Georgia since 2014, but our expertise runs much deeper. We’re built on over three decades of hands-on construction experience that you can see in every pool we create.

We know Georgia’s red clay soil, unpredictable weather patterns, and what it takes to build gunite pools that last in Fairfax’s climate. While other companies come and go, we’ve stayed focused on one thing: creating beautiful, durable pools that families actually want to use every day.

In Fairfax and throughout our service area, we’ve earned our reputation by showing up when we say we will, doing the work right the first time, and standing behind every pool we build. That’s how you build trust in a community.

Pool Construction Process Georgia

From Your Vision to First Swim

We start with understanding how you actually want to use your pool. Not what looks good in a magazine, but what makes sense for your family, your Fairfax property, and your budget.

Our pool design process creates a detailed 3D model of your custom pool before we break ground. You’ll see exactly what you’re getting, including how it integrates with your existing landscape and home architecture. No surprises, no “that’s not what I pictured” moments when construction is complete.

Once you approve the design, our experienced crew handles everything from permits to the final startup. We coordinate all the trades, manage the timeline, and keep you informed at every step. Most residential gunite pools take 8-10 weeks from excavation to completion, depending on features and Georgia’s weather patterns.

Complete Backyard Transformation Solutions

Your pool design includes everything needed to create a true backyard retreat in Fairfax. Custom inground cement pools built with gunite construction that handles Georgia’s expansive clay soil and temperature swings better than fiberglass or vinyl alternatives.

We integrate natural elements that complement Fairfax’s established neighborhoods—organic shapes, natural stone features, and thoughtful landscaping that makes your pool look like it belongs. Add features like tanning ledges for in-water relaxation, energy-efficient LED lighting for evening ambiance, and saltwater systems that feel gentler on skin and eyes.

For families who want the complete outdoor living experience, we design spillover spas, custom patios, outdoor kitchens, and fire features that turn your backyard into a year-round destination. Everything is planned together so it flows naturally and functions the way your family actually lives.

How long does custom pool construction take in Fairfax?

Most residential gunite pools take 8-10 weeks from excavation to your first swim, but the timeline depends on your specific design complexity and features. Georgia’s weather plays a significant role—rain and high humidity can delay certain construction phases like gunite application and curing.

The design phase happens before construction starts, usually taking 2-3 weeks to create your custom 3D model and finalize all details. We handle all permits and approvals with local Fairfax authorities, which typically adds 1-2 weeks depending on current processing times.

More complex designs with multiple features, challenging site conditions like steep slopes, or custom materials requiring special orders may extend the timeline. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront based on your specific project and keep you updated throughout construction if anything changes.

Gunite pools handle Georgia’s expansive clay soil and temperature swings better than fiberglass or vinyl options. Our soil expands and contracts significantly with moisture and temperature changes, which can crack fiberglass shells or cause them to shift and pop out of the ground.

Gunite is essentially concrete that’s sprayed over a steel framework, creating a monolithic structure that moves with the ground rather than fighting it. This construction method also allows for complete customization of shape, depth, and features that aren’t possible with pre-manufactured fiberglass shells.

The durability means fewer repairs over time and better long-term value for Fairfax homeowners. While the initial investment is higher than vinyl liner pools, gunite pools typically last decades with proper maintenance and can be renovated or updated without complete replacement.

Yes, we regularly work with sloped yards, tight access, and other challenging conditions common in Fairfax’s established neighborhoods. Our three decades of experience include dealing with Georgia’s red clay soil, high water tables, and underground obstacles like tree roots and utility lines.

We’ve built pools on steep grades, worked around mature oak trees, and navigated narrow side yards where larger equipment can’t fit. Each site gets thoroughly evaluated during the design phase so we can plan the right approach and equipment access strategy.

Underground utilities, rock formations, and extensive tree root systems are all factored into our construction plan and timeline. While these conditions may affect cost or schedule, they rarely prevent us from building your dream pool. We’ll be completely upfront about any challenges and exactly how we’ll address them.

Tanning ledges are extremely popular because they create shallow areas where kids and adults can relax in 12-18 inches of water without swimming. These extended shallow benches are perfect for pool furniture or just lounging in the water during hot Georgia summers.

LED lighting systems are in high demand for evening use and energy efficiency. Modern LED systems can change colors, create amazing nighttime ambiance, and use a fraction of the electricity of traditional pool lights. Fire features like fire bowls create dramatic contrast with water and extend outdoor living into cooler months.

Saltwater chlorination systems are increasingly popular because they feel gentler on skin and eyes while maintaining clean, safe water. Many Fairfax families also want integrated spas that spill over into the main pool, creating both a relaxation spot and beautiful water feature that works year-round.

We handle all permitting and regulatory requirements as part of our service. Nearly all Georgia municipalities and homeowner associations require permits and detailed site plans for pool construction, and we know the specific requirements for Fairfax and surrounding communities.

Our team submits all necessary paperwork, coordinates required inspections, and ensures your pool meets local building codes and safety requirements. This includes setback requirements, fencing regulations, electrical safety standards, and any special drainage considerations for your property.

We also work directly with HOAs when needed to get design approval before construction begins. Having this experience means fewer delays and no surprises about compliance issues. You don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy or worry about code violations—we handle it so you can focus on enjoying your new pool.

Our pool design service includes everything from initial consultation through 3D modeling, detailed construction drawings, and complete installation. We start by understanding how you want to use your space, your budget, and any specific features or challenges on your Fairfax property.

The design process includes thorough site evaluation, custom 3D modeling so you can visualize the finished product from every angle, and detailed construction plans. We coordinate with other outdoor features like patios, landscaping, and outdoor kitchens to create a cohesive backyard design that works together.

All permits, inspections, and regulatory compliance are included in our service. We also provide complete startup service and training on your new pool equipment and maintenance requirements. Our goal is to deliver a complete solution and ongoing support, not just build a pool and disappear.
