When Georgia’s summer heat hits triple digits, you shouldn’t have to pack up the family and drive to overcrowded public pools. You deserve better than that.
Your custom pool becomes the solution to hot afternoons, weekend entertainment, and family time that actually happens. No more “maybe next weekend” because the community pool is packed or closed for maintenance.
Picture this instead: evening swims after work, weekend barbecues where kids play safely while adults actually relax, and the kind of backyard that makes neighbors wish they’d called us first. That’s what happens when you work with pool builders who understand what South Georgia families really want.
We bring over 30 years of hands-on pool construction experience to every project in Lotts and throughout South Georgia. We didn’t just decide to build pools one day—we’ve been perfecting our craft since before most pool companies existed.
We founded Deep Waters Pools in 2014 after decades of working in concrete, plumbing, and custom construction. We started this company because we knew families deserved better than the rushed, cookie-cutter approach most contractors offer.
Here in Lotts, we understand the challenges other contractors miss. Red clay soil that requires specific excavation techniques. Humidity that affects water chemistry. Local building codes that out-of-town companies stumble through. When you’ve been doing this as long as we have, you learn to handle these details right the first time.
We start every project with a real conversation about how you plan to use your pool. Daily exercise? Family gatherings? Entertaining friends? Your answers shape everything from depth to features to placement.
Next comes site evaluation and custom design. We handle all permitting, utility coordination, and prep work. You won’t spend weeks calling county offices or wondering if your contractor actually knows local requirements.
During construction, our crew shows up when promised and keeps you informed every step of the way. No mysterious delays or surprise change orders. We’ve built enough pools to know exactly what each phase requires and how long it should take.
Before we consider the job complete, we walk you through everything—equipment operation, maintenance basics, and what to watch for. You’ll feel confident about your new pool from day one.

Our pool services focus on what works in South Georgia: custom in-ground cement pools that handle our climate, soil conditions, and the way local families actually live. We’re not trying to sell you the same design that works in Arizona or Minnesota.
In Lotts, we know you need pools that can handle intense summer heat without constant chemical adjustments. Designs that work with red clay soil instead of fighting it. Construction methods that account for humidity and seasonal weather patterns.
We also build luxury spas that extend your swimming season and stunning patios that tie your entire outdoor space together. These aren’t afterthoughts—they’re integrated into your overall design from the beginning.
Safety features like custom pool covers aren’t optional extras we try to sell you later. They’re part of building a pool that protects your family and your investment. Every cover is designed specifically for your pool’s shape and size, ensuring maximum protection and ease of use.
Most custom in-ground cement pools in Lotts take 4-6 weeks from excavation to completion, assuming normal weather conditions. This timeline includes all phases: excavation, steel installation, concrete application, plumbing and electrical work, and final finishing.
Georgia’s weather can affect scheduling, particularly during heavy rain periods, but we plan for these factors and adjust timelines accordingly. We’d rather build your pool right than rush through critical steps that affect long-term durability.
Unlike contractors who juggle multiple projects simultaneously, we focus on completing your pool before starting the next job. This approach prevents the delays and quality issues that happen when crews are spread too thin across different job sites.
Thirty years of hands-on construction experience means we’ve solved problems that newer companies are still learning about. We’ve built pools through multiple economic cycles, weather patterns, and changing industry standards—experience you can’t get from YouTube videos or weekend seminars.
We specialize specifically in custom cement pools rather than trying to be everything to everyone. This focus means we’ve perfected our processes for the type of pools that work best in South Georgia’s unique conditions. Better results, fewer problems, less expensive fixes down the road.
As a local company, we understand challenges that out-of-town contractors consistently miss. Red clay excavation techniques, local permitting quirks, climate considerations that affect long-term performance. When issues arise—and they sometimes do—we’re here to handle them quickly rather than being based hours away.
Custom in-ground cement pools in the Lotts area typically range from $60,000 to $120,000, depending on size, features, and site-specific requirements. Factors affecting price include pool dimensions, depth, special features like integrated spas, and any challenging site conditions.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront—no surprise charges that appear halfway through construction. Our pricing includes permits, excavation, construction, standard equipment package, and complete startup services.
Financing options are available through lenders who specialize in pool projects. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss payment structures that work with your budget. Many families find that monthly payments are less than they were spending on family entertainment and vacation expenses.
Yes, we manage all permit applications and coordinate required inspections throughout your project. This includes building permits, electrical permits, and any other local requirements specific to your property and location.
Our experience with local building departments means we know exactly what documentation they require and how to avoid common delays. Permits are submitted early so approvals are in hand before construction begins—not something we scramble to handle later.
We schedule and coordinate all required inspections at appropriate construction phases. Our crew understands what inspectors look for and ensures everything meets or exceeds code requirements before they arrive. This prevents costly rework and keeps projects on schedule.
Cement pools require regular but straightforward maintenance to stay clean and safe. Weekly tasks include testing and adjusting chemical levels, skimming surface debris, and cleaning the filtration system. Most homeowners spend 30-60 minutes per week on routine maintenance once they understand the process.
Seasonal maintenance includes opening and closing procedures if you choose not to operate year-round. In South Georgia’s climate, many families keep pools operational most of the year, which actually simplifies maintenance compared to seasonal operation.
During project completion, we provide comprehensive training on pool operation and maintenance. You’ll understand water chemistry basics, equipment operation, and simple troubleshooting before we consider the job finished. We also recommend trusted local suppliers for chemicals and replacement parts when needed.
Challenging sites are actually where our experience shows most clearly. Sloped terrain, tight access, small lots, difficult soil conditions—we’ve handled all of these situations multiple times over three decades of construction.
Site evaluation is always our first step. We assess soil conditions, drainage patterns, utility locations, and access routes before proposing solutions. Sometimes creative excavation techniques or specialized equipment are required, but most sites can accommodate a well-designed pool.
Smaller lots often benefit most from custom design approaches that maximize swimming space while maintaining proper setbacks from structures and property lines. We’re skilled at creating pools that feel spacious even in compact yards, using design elements that enhance the sense of space rather than cramping it.
