Hear from Our Customers
You’ve been thinking about it for years. That perfect backyard where summer evenings stretch longer, where kids create memories that last a lifetime, where you finally have your own retreat just steps from your back door.
When we’re done, you won’t just have a pool. You’ll have the backyard that changes how your family spends time together. Weekend mornings become pool days. Summer parties happen at your house. Your property value jumps, but more importantly, your quality of life transforms.
The difference is in the details. Every curve, every finish, every safety feature designed specifically for your family’s needs and your property’s unique characteristics.
We started Deep Waters Pools in 2014, but our story goes back over 30 years. We’ve spent decades mastering concrete work, plumbing systems, and custom pool construction before launching our own company.
We’re not the biggest pool company in Georgia. We’re the one that treats every project like it’s going in our own backyard. Every pool we build becomes an advertisement for our business, so we approach each installation with the same level of care and commitment.
Most of our work comes from referrals because satisfied customers become our best salespeople. In Lax and throughout South Georgia, families trust us to deliver what we promise: quality pools built with honesty and personalized service.
We start with your vision. During our initial consultation, we’ll walk your property, discuss your lifestyle, entertainment needs, safety requirements, and budget. We consider everything: lot shape, existing landscape, sun exposure, and how you actually plan to use your pool.
Next comes the design phase. We create detailed plans that show exactly how your custom pool will integrate with your outdoor space. No surprises, no changes you didn’t approve.
Construction begins with excavation and continues through concrete work, plumbing installation, and finishing touches. We handle every aspect of the build process, coordinating each phase to keep your project on schedule without cutting corners on quality.
The final step is your first swim. We’ll walk you through all the systems, explain maintenance basics, and make sure everything exceeds your expectations before we consider the job complete.

Our pool design services cover everything you need for a complete backyard transformation. We specialize in custom in-ground cement pools, but we also design and build spas, patios, and complementary outdoor features that create a cohesive outdoor living space.
In Lax, Georgia’s warm climate, we design pools for year-round enjoyment. That means considering seasonal changes, local weather patterns, and how Georgia’s humidity affects pool chemistry and maintenance requirements.
Safety is built into every design. We include custom pool covers, proper fencing options, and safety features that meet or exceed local building codes. For families with children, we discuss additional safety measures during the design phase.
Every pool includes professional-grade filtration systems, energy-efficient pumps, and quality materials selected for Georgia’s climate conditions. We source materials that handle temperature fluctuations and resist the wear that comes with regular use in our region.
Most custom pool projects in Lax take 6-12 weeks from groundbreaking to completion, depending on the complexity of your design and current weather conditions. The design phase typically adds 2-3 weeks before construction begins.
We provide a detailed timeline during your consultation that accounts for excavation, concrete curing time, plumbing and electrical work, and finishing touches. Georgia’s climate allows us to work year-round, but we schedule around heavy rain periods that could delay concrete work.
Complex features like spas, custom lighting, or extensive hardscaping can extend the timeline. We’d rather take the time to do it right than rush and compromise quality.
Our pool design service includes site evaluation, custom design drawings, permit assistance, and complete construction management. We handle excavation, concrete work, plumbing, filtration system installation, and all finishing work.
What’s not included: electrical connections from your pool equipment to your home’s electrical panel (you’ll need to hire a licensed electrician), and any utility line relocations that might be required. We coordinate with these professionals but they’re separate contracts.
We also provide detailed maintenance training, warranty coverage on our workmanship, and ongoing support. Most clients appreciate that we’re available for questions even after the project is complete.
We handle all permit applications and ensure your pool meets local building codes and safety requirements. This includes setback requirements, fencing regulations, and electrical safety standards specific to Lax and Coffee County.
The permit process typically takes 2-3 weeks. We submit detailed construction plans, site surveys, and safety specifications to local authorities. Our experience with local regulations helps avoid delays and ensures compliance.
We also coordinate required inspections throughout the construction process. This includes excavation approval, steel inspection, concrete inspection, and final safety inspection before you can use your pool.
In Georgia, we recommend designs that account for our hot, humid summers and mild winters. This means proper circulation systems, adequate shade considerations, and materials that handle temperature fluctuations without cracking or fading.
Concrete pools work exceptionally well in our climate because they’re durable and can be customized for any design vision. We use concrete mixes and finishing materials specifically chosen for Georgia’s weather conditions.
For families who want year-round enjoyment, we often incorporate spas or design pools that work well with heating systems. The key is planning for how you’ll actually use your pool throughout the year, not just during peak summer months.
Custom pool design costs vary significantly based on size, features, and site conditions. A basic custom in-ground pool typically starts around $40,000-$60,000, while pools with spas, custom lighting, and extensive hardscaping can reach $100,000 or more.
Site conditions affect pricing. Properties that require significant excavation, have drainage challenges, or need retaining walls will cost more than straightforward installations. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your specific property and design requirements.
We offer competitive pricing and flexible payment schedules. Most clients pay half down when signing the contract, 25% when construction begins, and the remainder at completion. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
We provide comprehensive training on pool maintenance, water chemistry, and equipment operation when your pool is completed. This includes hands-on instruction with your specific filtration system, chemical balance requirements, and seasonal maintenance tasks.
While we don’t provide ongoing weekly maintenance services, we’re available for equipment repairs, system upgrades, and technical support. Many of our clients handle routine maintenance themselves after our training, but we can recommend trusted local pool service companies if you prefer professional maintenance.
We stand behind our workmanship with warranty coverage and remain available for questions or concerns. Our goal is ensuring you’re completely comfortable operating and maintaining your investment for years to come.
