Why Modify Your Pool’s Depth?
Increase Usability
Redesign your pool with multiple depth zones, such as a shallow entry for relaxation and a deeper end for swimming or diving.
Repair & Renovate
Pool depth changes can also address structural issues or improve outdated designs.
Enhance Recreation
Adjust the depth to accommodate activities such as water aerobics or lap swimming or shallow out your pool to make it safer for young children.
Our Pool Depth Modification Process
1. Initial Consultation
The process begins with a one-on-one meeting where we listen to your goals and discuss your pool usage. Are you looking for a child-friendly shallow area, a deeper end for diving, or a multi-depth design? We evaluate your existing pool design, layout, and overall condition to determine the best approach and plan that aligns with your vision, preferences, and budget.
3. Planning and Permits
To ensure compliance with local building codes and safety regulations, we handle all the necessary planning and permit applications. From submitting detailed project plans to coordinating with local authorities, we take care of the paperwork so you can focus on envisioning your transformed pool. Our expertise in navigating regulations ensures your project proceeds smoothly and without delays.
5. Finishing Touches
After reshaping is complete, we focus on restoring your pool’s aesthetic appeal. We apply high-quality finishes, such as plaster, tiles, or pebble surfaces, to create a seamless and visually appealing design. This step not only enhances the look of your pool but also ensures durability and smooth transitions between old and new surfaces.
2. Structural Assessment
Next, our team conducts a comprehensive inspection of your pool’s current structure, plumbing system, and equipment. This step ensures the modification is feasible and identifies any necessary upgrades or repairs. We assess factors such as the pool shell’s integrity, drainage requirements, and the potential impact on circulation systems to avoid unforeseen complications.
4. Precise Reshaping
Once the groundwork is laid, we begin the reshaping process. Using advanced tools and proven techniques, we carefully adjust the pool’s floor and walls to achieve the desired depth. This phase requires a high level of craftsmanship to maintain the structural integrity of the pool. Whether deepening, shallowing, or creating multiple depth zones, our team ensures the modifications are executed with precision and care.
6. Final Inspection and Walkthrough
Before we consider the project complete, we perform a thorough final inspection to ensure every detail meets our quality and safety standards. We verify the accuracy of the new depth, check for proper plumbing and equipment functionality, and address any concerns you may have. Once the inspection is complete, we walk you through the completed modifications, ensuring you are fully satisfied and ready to enjoy your upgraded pool.
