"The service was awesome. Cleaned my pool and diagnosed and made some repairs. They took my pool from a green pond to a sparkling pool again. Everything works and looks great.the best thing was being told what was wrong and following thru to fix it when they said it would get done. Would definitely recommend this company. Thanks again Aquadoc"

"SBL did a fantastic rebuild of our 45 year old pool! Everything went exactly to plan and Sal, the owner, was always available by text or phone to confirm schedules, etc. He was of great assistance in helping us select a beautiful Italian tile out of many, many choices. The pool looks wonderful. His crews always showed up as scheduled and were professional and friendly. Our agreed upon price was maintained. We are totally pleased with the work done by SBL Pools and recommend them without reservation. If any new work comes up regarding changes to the pool, they will be our first (and only) call!

"I highly recommend Sánchez pool construction company, their customer service is excellent. Remodeling a pool is a big investment and can be stressful, you want to make sure your make all the right choices. Kimberly sat down with me and explain so much regarding materials the overall process of having a pool remodeled. I handed over my pool to them (it was a disaster) they had a lot of work to do. When the job was complete I couldn t believe the pool they handed back to me was mine, they did an amazing job I can t believe how beautiful my pool is. Thank you Sánchez pools, Not only for my beautiful pool but allowing me to be stress-free through the process, you guys are truly amazing!!!!!!"

"We hired Alan the moment he came out to give us an estimate. He was very detailed in what his cost included - our pool has never looked better! During the summer we used to experience a green pool because the chlorine would just disappear due to the heat, but Alan checks our levels, vacuums and adds water and chlorine if needed every Monday! We are very pleased."

"Francisco and his employees are all very friendly and polite. They always cleaned up after themselves and were very nice. Our pool was built in a very timely manner. They were here when they said they would be. We enjoy having our beautiful pool."
Most spool or cocktail pools take four to 12 weeks from breaking ground to the first swim, although timing varies depending on size, type, and site conditions. An above-ground, vinyl-lined model can be installed within three or four days once the kit arrives, whereas an in-ground spool adds excavation, plumbing, and inspection steps that extend the timeline. Because delivery alone can take a few weeks, lining up permits and any necessary digging or grading work during that window helps keep the project moving.
Cocktail pools are not intended for traditional swimming; they are built to deliver a cooling and relaxing experience. They provide an ideal setting for a refreshing dip rather than for exercise or lap swimming. The pool’s limited dimensions restrict vigorous activity and ensure safety, making it a perfect retreat for quick cool-downs and leisurely soaks in a compact, stylish design.
Spool pools have a depth of 38 to 42 inches, which is ideal for sitting, standing, and gentle dipping. This deliberate depth prioritizes safety and an inviting atmosphere while eliminating the possibility of diving or extended swimming. The measured design creates a secure and intimate space for relaxation, adding a refined touch to your outdoor area.
If you're handy and have experience with excavation, plumbing, and electrical work, consider installing your spool pool yourself. However, hiring a professional ensures the job is done safely and correctly. Pros have the expertise to handle all the technical details, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid costly mistakes.
Maintaining a spool pool demands regular cleaning, precise chemical balancing, and thorough system inspections. Homeowners should allocate time monthly for filter cleaning and water quality checks, in addition to performing seasonal maintenance, to ensure optimal system performance. Ongoing maintenance preserves water clarity and operational efficiency, reduces repair costs, and extends the pool’s lifespan, creating a safe and enjoyable environment.
Popular upgrades include a brick-paver patio for slip-resistant footing, low-voltage lighting for evening swims, and code-compliant fencing to boost safety. Additionally, consider adding landscaping or a fire pit to transform the pool area into a year-round hangout. Each feature raises overall costs, but thoughtful add-ons improve usability, curb appeal, and, in many markets, resale value.
