"Contacted Jose, he came over to look at pool/spa and answered all our questions. We wanted pebble tech finish, tile at upper edge of pool, spa tile redone, and new LED light for both pool and spa. They started on a Thursday, removed three layers of surface material down to the gunite. Friday, they picked up up materials, Saturday they started the project new pebble tech and all new tiles on both spa and pool. They completed the work on Sunday, and followed up with acid wash, and daily, Jose would come by to sweep pool, add chemicals as needed, until project was complete. My wife and I can’t say enough of how our 33,000 gallon pool ended looking like new and prettier. Jose keeps you informed of process and is a very hardworking honest person who delivers a great product and customer support."

"Really pleased with how our pool project turned out. The process was smooth from start to finish, with a team that stayed responsive and on schedule. What stood out most was the attention to detail and how well everything was executed on site. The end result is better than expected, they even recommended getting a fire feature and water fall feature, which we ended up adding on without any regret to this day! They even build us a basketball court :)"

"They are an excellent company and did a great job. I would definitely recommend them."
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.
