Shell Construction

The pool shell is constructed — shotcrete/gunite for concrete pools, fiberglass shell set for fiberglass, or steel/polymer walls for vinyl liner.

Pool Installation FAQ for San Diego Homeowners

How often should San Diego homeowners get pool installation?
Given San Diego's intense uv degrading paint and surfaces year-round, most homeowners benefit from pool installation at least once a year. Summer marine layer residue on west-facing surfaces often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in San Diego most need pool installation?
Spanish colonial and stucco homes and Craftsman bungalows in North Park are the most common home types in San Diego and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How much does an in-ground pool cost?
Vinyl liner pools start around $35,000–$55,000. Fiberglass pools run $45,000–$70,000. Concrete/gunite pools cost $55,000–$100,000+. Decking, fencing, landscaping, and features add to these bases.
How long does pool installation take?
Fiberglass pools can be installed in 3–6 weeks. Vinyl liner pools take 6–8 weeks. Concrete pools take 3–6 months depending on complexity and weather.
Do I need a fence around my pool?
Yes. Nearly all states require a barrier (fence or wall) around residential pools with a self-latching gate. Specific requirements vary by state and municipality.
How much will a pool increase my home value?
A pool typically adds 5–8% to home value, though this varies significantly by climate and neighborhood. In warm climates where pools are expected, the return is higher.
